Far below standart

The quality of the course was pretty bad, the greens very slow and uneven.
The second nine holes are spectacular, its a shame that the quality of the fairways and greens are so far behind the average.
Enjoyable but not a course to walk.
Reviewed March 23, 2016
A mixture of spectacular and average holes makes this course enjoyable. A drawback not to be ignored is the fact that a golf car is in practice mandatory. Otherwise the walking effort will eclipse the playing experience.

Would have been a nice round if….
Reviewed April 8, 2024
We were really looking forward to the 18-hole round with the great view of the bay of St. Tropez. We had booked the tee time the day before at reception for 2:50 p.m. with a buggy (mandatory). When we wanted to pay our green fee at reception on the day of play, we were informed that the golf course closes at 6:45 p.m.! Great!!! Unfortunately, we then canceled our round and also decided not to play a 9-hole round. The driving range was OK.

Nice layout though
Reviewed July 19, 2022
It could actually be a very nice place. The layout is interesting and varied. Unfortunately, the place is in poor condition. The tees, the fairways and especially the bunkers where the grass grows high and there is no sand. Only the greens are mediocre.
The green fee of € 91 is far too high for this place. In addition, you have to rent a buggy. This is not noted anywhere on the home page. There are many beautiful places in the region. Sainte Maxime is definitely not one of them.

...our second round...
Reviewed May 13, 2022
Another course built by Donald Harradine and his son Peter in a tourist destination and opened in 1991. Our list now includes more than a dozen played harradine courses.
We played our first round here in 2001, the day after the Twin Toures were destroyed in New York. The shock was omnipresent, there was no concentration, the scores were really bad. We have long planned to play the courses again that were under these terrible events.
This course has two faces, the first nine have very moderate terrain transitions, the second nine are sometimes violent. It would be pure fitness training to play golf here on foot - especially when the temperatures are high - therefore a car is mandatory. The location would almost be worth five stars if it weren't for the villas along the course - some spoil the picture badly. The layout is good, deserves four solid stars, but unfortunately the course maintenance cannot keep up.
This course wouldn't be that long - the holes measure less than 350 meters on average - the par 3s are rather long - back tees. A slope of 140 shows that the terrain plays along and that this course is one of the more difficult on the Côte. It makes this course long, especially in the back nine.
The location and the view would easily be worth four stars, but neither would the layout or the maintenance.
Divided opinions - three or four stars - the coin decided.

Beautifully landscaped place, partly in bad condition
Reviewed October 6, 2019
Played October 2019. Theoretically, a beautiful course with great views of the Gulf of St. Tropez, especially on the second 9. The holes are well designed and a challenge for different classes, for example, the holes of white play clearly different and demanding than from yellow.
But unfortunately, the maintenance of the course is not on a good level: Several discounts from mats, many bald spots on the fairways, patchy mown greens, etc.

Partial beautiful views of the Gulf and the nature
Reviewed April 8, 2019
Have already played the course a few years ago. A lot has been done here. The mats are only found on a tee. The fairways are much better. Likewise the greens. A kart is definitely the right choice. The bookings are made without any problems both online and at the reception. The driving range is clearly up. Clubhouse and Pro Shop are neat. Picturesque are the apparently belonging to the club cats. All in all, a thoroughly recommendable place

Magnificent view
Reviewed May 22, 2018
The first 9 holes pass between the houses and offer a good quality even if some start are on synthetic carpet. The second part offers magnificent views and a very pleasant and sometimes technical terrain. Cloakrooms are provided for members and a locker or other for visitors would be welcome.
But beautiful experience

The place is in fact a fitness program by foot. The holes are varied but sometimes a little bit bad pressed into the terrain. There is no compelling reason to call this place a must for the Cote.

Mixed Feelings
Reviewed March 29, 2016
After we had booked the place online, we had the Pro learn that a Buggy (35 €) is required. Not a word on the homepage, acts a bit like rip off. In retrospect, however, this place is impossible without buggy, huge distances between holes and great differences in altitude. The first nine go through residential complexes, the second nine are better and more beautiful. One can get hold of online promotions, the regular green fee is the place definitely not worth it. Reductions partially mats, bunker without or with concrete sand. Unfriendly staff and grottenschlechte players before us two people with a set of clubs, no one seems to bother, paid mainly.

Expensive, miserable condition, worst service in the clubhouse we have ever experienced! Before starting at 12:30 we were told on demand, serving the clubhouse only between 12-15 clock food. Snacks no. Our drinks before the round we had to get ourselves on the terrace and the pay came out none. We would have to pay in... There we were then "accidentally" also another 5 € too little published change! We have paid the green fees, two bottles of water (JE3 €), but only one condition on further prompting. Our Flight partner from Finland wanted a water and 2 cans of beer on the round, because she was told she could only get 1 beer!? In Halfway we asked for a snack, ... but this was also denied to us for reasons of time ( "That is not normal" ... said the Cadddy master). In the square of the horror went on...
Reductions partly of artificial turf mats! Tee boxes simply do not exist. Ball washer empty or full brown broth.
Greens are more like a field!
But the view is stunning just on the second 9! The fairways have been replaced with rolling lawns and apparently simultaneously adopted a horde of wild boars and entrusted with the course maintenance, otherwise I can not explain it to me as a groundskeeper!
Conclusion:
Who € 92 / round left, his own food and drink brought and it like "Scottish" like on the railways, which is perhaps the right place!
Otherwise rather avoid! Since there are much better places in the immediate vicinity!
Pity!

Excellent location status
Reviewed July 4, 2015
The course condition was excellent over the past 2 weeks. The Greens super. Varied and sometimes very beautiful view. With 3 holes white / yellow you have before / after cut off artificial grass mats with the Driver. Too Bad.

Appalling Condition of the square
Reviewed August 21, 2014
The course cost € 92 and was in a catastrophic state. Many bald place on the fairways and the tees partly due to lack of grass on sand. Partly were Mr. discounts only on mats.
For me this place is a no-go!!!

Beautiful views, but... For the 2nd

August 2013 Varied course with beautiful views of the sea and the maxim of St. villas. State space insufficient, especially The discounts are right field. The greens are in order. Due to the distances between the holes caddys are a must.
Clubhouse getting on in years, not restaurant invites you to linger. Reservation of the round easily and friendly reception in the clubhouse.

Except a few world-class holes (especially hole 7 and 17) much Unattractive: Place poor condition, obviously getting on in years golf. Probably why that may be? Poorly placed mat tee! hole in one ever irritated powerful and awakens later confirmed fears. Although the green fee of 77 € incl seems buggy meet due date aerifizierten greens, but the regular price of 97 euros seems to us compared to other places in the area too expensive.
