For some the “beautiful game” is football but for others it is definitely GOLF!
Golf for many this is a relaxing pastime for others they just enjoy the challenge and the camaraderie that a round of golf engenders. Whatever the reason, golf is a very popular holiday activity and we have identified on our Availability & Prices pages which hotels have golf on or nearby the property. Further detail is then shown on the hotel page, plus we also have some special offers for golfers some shown here.
More golf information
On our destinations pages we have also added some information about various courses available but we would be happy to give you more specific details about these or other courses that perhaps space restrictions prevented us from mentioning.
Pre booking golf
Golf can be pre booked either as a single round at your preferred course or as a special “package” on one or more courses. Like many other specialities, golf requirements are very individual and we prefer to tailor yours specifically for you. Our reservations team have all the information to hand so do please let them know your preferences.
Eight Championship courses in Bermuda!
Bermuda is a hot favourite when it comes to golf and the best time of year to play is November to March. Although a year round destination the island is best suited between these months for Golf, and as it is not so busy during this period, Tee times are more readily available.
As we have said, we do prefer to tailor your holiday, but to give you an example of a pre prepared Golf suggestion in Bermuda, below is one that Cambridge Beaches have which can be combined with a stay at the hotel.
Golfers Delight
You can “add-on” this Golfers Delight to any stay at Cambridge Beaches, it includes four rounds of golf: two at the Championship, Robert Trent Jones course, Port Royal; one at Riddles Bay and one at the Par 3 Fairmont Southampton course (shared golf cart here). Also included is a Swedish Massage in the Cambridge Spa, most welcome after a round of golf. This Golf add on needs to be booked before you arrive in Bermuda and costs £384 per person. Please note that transport to the golf courses is not included.
Taking your Clubs with you
On British Airways to Bermuda a set of golf clubs is usually allowed free of charge and in addition to your normal baggage allowance. If this changes we will advise you at the time of booking.
Europe golf destinations
Many of the destinations we offer have excellent golf courses and arrangements for example one cannot think of the Algarve without thinking of golf. But many others like Tenerife and Mallorca also have a wide choice of options.
Below is an example of a special golf arrangement at the Sheraton Algarve Hotel, but we can combine most courses in most of our destinations for you.
Deluxe Golf Package
For a five nights, or more, stay at the Sheraton Algarve you can add this “Deluxe Golf Package” to your holiday - it includes one round at Pine Cliffs (9 holes), one at the Villa Sol course (18 holes) and one at the Penina Championship course. Transport to the latter two courses is not included.
The cost of this add on is £129 per person and represents very good value, if you booked these on arrival individually you would pay more.
This special add on package is valid December 07, January 08 and June, July, August and September 08.
Taking your Clubs with you
Most scheduled airlines to our European destinations do offer an increased baggage allowance when taking golf clubs, anything over this allowance is then charged, so it will depend on whether you take a full set of clubs or not and how much of your allowance is used for your suitcase. Charter flights invariably make an additional charge for carrying golf clubs.
