Beautiful ocean views, friendly staff, but a dog track

Ocean views are beautiful, Jesse on staff went out if his way to accommodate my playing partner — thank you.

But, this is a dog track, shocked at the almost porta potty restrooms adjacent to the pro shop.

I had to move my ball off of unplayable lies not wanting to damage my clubs.

Would not recommend to a friend and will not return.

Played this course for the first time on my birthday and it was a wonderful experience. The staff were so welcoming and super kind. The course was a short 9 but beautifully laid out. Looking forward to a return round soon!

Best 9 Hole Par 3

Staff and amenities are top notch with this being at a high end resort. Trackman in the bays and perfect condition putting and chipping areas. Staff is beyond friendly and parking is 10 feet from the clubhouse.

Course is in fantastic condition all year and worth every penny, which is not expensive.

Pace of play is slow due to everyone being on vacation, but that opens up the option to play multiple balls and fall into the oceanfront layout. I play this course 20-30 times a year and it just gets better and better.

1st class act!

Super nice staff, great practice green and two chipping greens. Awesome little 9-hole round, with full size greens. Followed my round with a walk over to Nelson’s for lunch then come back for a solid practice session. Just a great all around upscale experience and great way to spend a day at Teranea!

Fun 9!

Great designed well kept 9 holes. Bit steep of a price but that’s what you pay for “resort golf”. The pace of play in front of me was glacial though.

A MUST PLAY!!!!

My wife and I golfed at The Links at Terranea yesterday for the first time, and the course was beautiful! It was expensive, but the views and course conditions made it absolutely worth it. We were the last tee time of the day, and the staff was still so friendly, told us to take our time. Playing close to closing gave us a chance to watch the sunset on the course, and it was stunning. We are only here for a week, but we are already planning on going back before we go home. Highly recommend playing here!

Links at Terranea Staffing impeccable

Though i played on a day of aeration the course still played exceptionally well. The course layout is unmatched and very enjoyable for a quick round of 9 holes. I look forward to playing it again. Thanks Terranea Golf Course

Watch the Bushes

Small Course but Helps to get out and walk once in a While. Not to crowed. Those Bushes on both sides of the Fairway will get a Few of your Balls. Fast Greens, overall course was in good shape, just a little Tight. Stay away from the Sand pits, steep walls to get out. Have Fun.

Tiny course with great views

Great little Par 3 course with fabulous views. it seems to cater to resort guests who don’t golf regularly. The pace of play was extremely slow, but thankfully, the gorgeous views made it all OK. Definitely not for serious golfers.

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.
