Golf Grandeur

An immaculate Robert Trent Jones Jr.-designed 18-hole course ranks among the Caribbean’s best places to play golf. But before stepping foot on the first tee at St. Regis Bahia Beach, you’ll begin at the finely appointed pro shop, where gracious customer service and first-class merchandise set the tone for your experience. From there, you’ll move to the secluded, manicured practice area, a beautiful place to ease into your round.

When playing the esteemed golf course, you’ll encounter coconut palm-framed fairways with water features and bunkers accompanying many greens. The vibrant closing holes head toward the ocean, culminating with the stunning 18th hole. It runs parallel to the nearby crashing waves. The club offers a caddie program, something that many players enjoy for the stress-free, stroke-saving support these insightful golf guides provide.
