Very good for a par 3 golf course

I do not usually play par 3 golf courses and only played this one because my family and I were staying at the Tarranea Resort. The course is difficult and interesting because of the wind, hilly terrain, and gullies to be avoided at all costs. The greens are well maintained and their hilly nature contributes to the course's difficulty. The quality of the sand traps was fair to poor. Staff is very friendly and accomodating. The course is quite expensive, but I would play here again under similar circumstances.BTW, you must walk as there are no golf carts.

Very nice place - expensive

Great par 3 9 hole course in a beautiful setting overlooking the Pacific. Good holes, longest one is probably 180 yards/ shortest about 100 yards. The golf practice area also is very nice with a good putting green and a good chipping area..

No complaints about the golf, but the weekend rate of $90 for 9 holes on a par 3 course is very high. Up to you the player if it is worth it to you.

Great 9 hole course with amazing views

I loved this course - the staff is so friendly and the course is in great shape. The amenities at the location include an amazing hotel with hiking trails, private beach, wonderful restaurants, spa, etc..... You can spend a whole day there and it's like a mini vacation.

Beautiful Par 3 Course with Ocean Views

Great experience, staff was amazing and fun course with ocean views (from afar). You can get a discount for replays and you might as well, seeing as though you can finish the course in 1-2 hours easily.

I personally would not pay $80+ for the course, but I was really happy with the twilight and early bird discount rates on the app.

1st Timers (Beginners)

Great 1st Time Experience. Weather was not the best, but course was in excellent condition. Definitely a bit crowded, but the play was consistent with little waiting.. (Took just over 2 hours to play 9 holes.)

This course is a walk only course--no carts. Although I am recovering from Open Heart surgery(4.5 mos.) the walk was enjoyable and not overly challenging.(Just what the doctor ordered)

Beautiful setting for sure... Will definitely be back...
