Unbelievable Scenery and layout
Reviewed November 8, 2016
There is no doubt this is one of the most exciting golf courses in the world. The course itself has many spectacular holes and it was in beautiful condition. I play off 18 and am not very long off the tee which has its challenges here. Some holes require a drive of around 180 yards to reach the fairway. If you lose some balls you wont care because the course is stunningly beautiful. If you get the opportunity to play here don't miss it. Pinnacle Point will live in my mind forever as it will for anyone who gets the chance to play here.
GREAT EXPERIENCE

A day of golf with ups and downs
Reviewed January 27, 2024
We played the course on January 20th, 2024 and found a phenomenal golf course. The views and oceanfront holes are unmatched anywhere else. That's why it has to be on every golfer's bucket list.
Here too, as in Pezula, the tee time and the racket sets (1x men's right-handed & 1x women's left-handed) were reserved from Germany and confirmed as reserved by the club.
However, what we found in women's left-handed rackets is second to none.
It felt like they were rackets that the players had either forgotten or no longer needed. A hodgepodge of different types and brands of clubs. To run away.
The people in charge just shrugged their shoulders( as in “and what should we do now?”
So with the clubs put together on a breathtaking course. It's indescribable when you have to play across the gorges and the sea to get to the green.
Unfortunately the place is very full and you have to wait until the pre-flight is ready.
If the marshal comes by during the round and doesn't say anything positive about your own game and the slowness of the game, you unfortunately lose your interest in such a great place.
All in all, a must-play course, but there is a lot of room for improvement among the employees in the pro shop and the marshals. Here you should think about whether you want to treat paying guests this way.

Place excellent - service underground
Reviewed November 27, 2022
We played the course on November 15th, 2022 and found a phenomenal golf course. The views and holes by the ocean cannot be found anywhere else. Therefore definitely to play as a once in a lifetime experience. Green fee was 1800 ZAR incl. Cart.
However, you only progress very slowly on the pitch, since you lose a lot of balls and the place is very full. We noticed the bad service in comparison to all other golf courses - unfriendly in the pro shop, when handing over the cart and also halfway not recommended. Nevertheless, a must-do on the Garden Route despite the high green fees.

- the driving range is 3km from tee 1. to forget. a no-go at this world-class course.
- booking and administration borders on inability
- in the pro shop and in the halfway house you feel like a troublemaker
- the restaurant (the only one in the entire golf resort) offers something spectacular, but unfortunately only the view. what the kitchen supplies is just before underground. unbelievable what chances are given.

Reviewed January 3, 2022
I would love to play it again... in September 2019 I was standing on the cliff. Only had a glove and a pitch fork in my luggage. Scrambled eggs for breakfast in the clubhouse. First flight of the young day. Sensational place! I still live on it today! Unfortunately, the 7 was blocked at the time and you played the 9 from two different tees. But that didn't affect the whole thing. Had two home players on flight which was very helpful.
Four balls were quickly fed to the snakes. The ball was not found on hole 5 (blind fairway), on hole 8 the carry 200m was not made (no risk, no fun) Balls were bought in the halfway house and then everything was held together. Watch dolphins in the waves from the club terrace. You just can't get enough of it. I thought the price was okay. Booked for September in January. Everything problem-free.

Reviewed April 23, 2021
Booked in February as a personal highlight (birthday present) and played in September 2019 in the middle of a tour of South Africa. My absolute highlight in my relatively short golfer life (since 2015).
I only brought a pitching fork with me - borrowing everything was no problem, bought 6 balls. Got the first start time in the morning, had been there early, first scrambled eggs and ham in the empty restaurant, then some putted. I saved myself the DR.
A friendly, South African couple from the Drakensberg played along - we are still in contact today (2021). They gave me tips on what to do with the ball, because now and then you can't see the landing area.
The lanes on the cliffs are a stunner. The surroundings are already distracting, you have to inhale that! After 5 lanes four of the six balls were gone (Beware of Snakes) ... well... Sockets and slices are punished with ball loss :-) maybe better to go to the driving range beforehand...
We had hardly any wind (wintertime about 23 ° C, pleasant).
Rescued to the Halfnine and bought another 3 balls there, but it was ultimately unnecessary. Great place, yes, not easy but playable. Nobody pushed. Didn't find it unfair either. What is unfair The bungalows (concrete + glass) didn't bother me. I still think back often and fondly on this lap. For me it was pure enjoyment and not a score hunt.
Then a beer on the terrace with the flight partners, nice exchange and watching dolphins in the waves. The only disadvantage was away from the golf course: An interesting coastal hike on the golf course was planned for my wife and daughter, but was not advised on site due to possible dangers (attacks). The stay in Mossel Bay itself was not very nice. Knysa or Hermanus are probably nicer there.

Ingenious - but only for experts or masochists
Reviewed February 23, 2021
Golf at its finest, simply overwhelming! but slope 140… 152 says it all.
It goes up and down tremendously. on foot, the space is not feasible. the layout is very elegant. I've rarely enjoyed a golf course like this. and there is no talk of * unfair *, as some previous commentators claim.
Long, VERY precise strokes and a lot of golf tactic experience are required - even in short games. whoever has HC 25+ becomes a masochist here, for unstable golfers I cannot recommend the course. or they don't belong here, otherwise a round takes 6 hours.
If you still want to try: frustration potential and take at least a dozen balls with you. every failure is brutally punished.
the 19th hole invites you to look back with a great view. It's just a shame that the menu selection doesn't quite meet the high golf standards.

Probably the best place I've ever played
Reviewed April 9, 2020
What more can you say about it? Played a place during a vacation - and this one and in no way regretted it. The weather in March was just perfect for golfing, luckily I got a local player in a 2-flight and the enjoyment could begin.
Perhaps a few comments on other reviews or notes:
- Yes, the admission takes a little time because it is a complete system with houses and locals etc.
- Yes, the range must then be approached separately by car, but it is not 20 but 5 minutes, but a little different than what you are used to eating.
- Rental clubs were not the newest for me, but I also asked about an alternative to steel
- A lot of balls is a must, even if luckily I only lost 4
- You should know where there are drop zones - without a local and knowledge of space, this is very important before you hit several balls at hole 5 in the bushes.
Otherwise it was a fantastic experience with very nice staff, perfect preparation of the carts and the space itself simply with an unbelievable quality and a layout that will not be found so often in the world.
Surprisingly hilly than you would expect from photos and videos - and although I am someone who always counts and looks very sporty, I could hardly concentrate on golf because I had to look around all the time.

The most beautiful and spectacular golf course I've played in 20 years of golf.
Nice weather, not too much wind, sensational views, wonderful landscape, great maintenance, what more do you want.
Carpet fairways, great fairways and bunkers that are easy to play, beautiful undulating greens that were not too fast, just a dream place!
Holes 7,9, 13 and 17 - a special treat.
We played the course of the 3rd Herrentee, only 5,646 m, par 72, long, but for the first time, without knowledge of the place, that's enough.

Indeed, this place is a sensation. Sometimes a bit too much of a good thing in creativity, but an absolute must. One should pay attention to the weather, wind cannot be used here. Driving range is available, but not usable, as about 20 min. Drive from clubhouse and tee 1. The check in procedure is a bit silly, with ID check and double security check, but that's the way it is.
For players with handicaps over 18, only a high ball loss and great frustration are definitely to be expected here. We have w / 6 and m / 8 and left the field with minus 3 balls.
Restaurant is nothing special. Friendliness is in short supply.

Grand Place
Reviewed January 12, 2020
An impressive place indeed, for which several superlatives apply. Lanes and greens inserted into a grandiose cliff landscape with all the difficulties that result. Not for the faint of heart and stray golfers. The "you must have played it" is correct, but as word gets around, you should book tee times early. At the sea, and above all high above the sea, the wind likes to come into play. This is the case all over the world and an additional challenge. You can't miss it in bad weather, but in good weather you should tee off early, because the wind only gets stronger in the afternoon. One more thing: this great place is worth the money.

At the beginning of December, a Gulf dream came true. All my golf buddies had said: You have to play it.
I can only agree with these opinions. In the most beautiful weather, light wind and top spot condition, it went on a dream round, to whose course by the Vorspielern everything was said.
What bothered me as on many South African places, is this exaggerated security behavior. I felt like I was supposed to be liberating someone from prison. ID check with driver's license, photos of driver's license, number on the car. Even with the "exit" from Pinnacleland the same procedure! If you do not want to have guests - lock space, then nobody comes!

Whether it's the best golf course on our planet, I do not know. In any case, it's the best golf course I've ever played in over 20 years. Of course, the course is extremely difficult, but that's what makes its appeal. The views of the Indian Ocean are just spectacular, and the course is a real challenge for athletic golfers. Beginners and occasional golfers should avoid this course and choose easier courses. You will not enjoy Pebble Beach or Augusta either.

We have played the course over the years three times, each with good weather and (important!) With little wind. The complex is varied, well maintained and the greens are nice and fast. You can also achieve a good result if you are not impressed too much by the sometimes frightening deductions. Playfully it may not be the best golf course I know, but it is not unfair or unplayable! The spectacular scenery is breathtaking! Sure - the moderately successful clubhouse cultivation and the strong construction activity are no advantage.

Quirky place. No freshwater obstacle, no tree, no pond or other gadgets. Getting used to... sterile, no.
The terrain is so large and spacious fenced. Thus, one finally plays without sight on barbed wire fencing. The houses far away for "Spanish" conditions. The carts are equipped with GPS, water, teas, etc. and I strongly recommend this because otherwise the routes are very far. Almost hit a kudu that was on the cart path.
The tracks are wide and varied cut into the bush landscape. What bothered the score, were the balls stupidly rolled into the hedge everywhere, there untraceable and with note "Caution snakes" The dubbing of the gorges / hedges was rather easy but you should probably create> 150 m carry. The beautiful driving range is located in front of the gate and fee free. Pay only balls. A putting green created as a miniature golf course. That was almost cheesy Good reception.

Actually, everything is already said to add more attributes would mean to carry Owls to "Pointnacle Pin". We played the course several times. He is undoubtedly spectacular. The mentioned development to the sea side is still limited. In the existing resort booths there is an absolute need for action on the part of the South African architects and the resort operator!! Remedy: After the round you soothed the broken eye in the excellent clubhouse (food, drinks, bar, service, view) with various liquors (raspberry spirit not available).
The service all around deserves a top grade. Green fee including cart. The secretariat is always helpful when it comes to a start time (1075 ZAR). Just call or drive by. To the cheaper www. golfteetimes. co.za (875 ZAR) will be awarded by the operator only a few start times.
Pinnacle Point scores in other things: driving range at its finest, by the way free.

Warning: While it is possible to navigate with the cart the fairways, but are visited at the designated points of cobbled path at the side before the Greens should. Otherwise represents the Cart from simple and the display shows the message "Restricted Aerea" and the cart has to be unlocked again by the clubhouse. With cautious game and little wind can be achieved than expected a better score. Nevertheless: There are many places where you just have to hit the Green in par 3 or the ball is lost. This also applies to some par 4 for the 2nd or 3rd beat with which one alludes the green. These are for the average golfer to high demands. Therefore: The camera is more important than the score card. That is why only four stars. Only by the prospect has not even lived the golfer. He wants to achieve a corresponding score his ways, and this is only possible under certain conditions.

As before, a place of all-upper-class - absolutely spectacular (see my review from last year)! But, unfortunately, also grows here the sea of houses, the course was built over more and more within a year.
In addition, the service has eased a bit - you no longer seems to have sooo necessary, it all seems a little "top down". "To compensate" the prices have risen significantly. While other clubs on the Garden Route in the ProShop Logo Polo in good quality or to EUR 30, - gets you call here before (not only for South Africa) outrageous 115 - on!
Yes, EURO, not EDGE!!!
Conclusion: Still MUST play - but quickly, before he drowns completely in houses!!! Smooth 5 stars, even if the building begins to disturb the optics (the "Bear Golf Ranking": Still 9 of 10 points).

A hole more beautiful than the other. Very difficult m. Hcp. 25. But to use false inhibitions the Senoirenabschlag, so you do go there u. Again a point.
The only requirement is the weather should be beautiful, the score quickly forget the experience is unforgettable

What a great day of golf! Sunshine, almost calm, pleasant 24 degrees and almost no other golfer. And on this spectacular place - wow! For successful haircuts some length is required. In addition, you should stay on the fairway, otherwise threatens the immediate loss of the ball - either because of the cliffs or on account of "beware of snakes!" Tees, fairways and (rather slow) greens in top condition. Staff very friendly. Who wants to the driving range, which should be equal do at the entrance to the resort, as the path from the clubhouse and back otherwise extremely time intensive. Camera pack!

This place is simply amazing! World Right off the bat under my personal top 3! OK, I've known only about 200 of the 32,000 available seats well (on this planet), but I'm afraid a lot better I shall not find it.
Direct "stamped on the cliffs" place with spectacular views of the ocean. Challenging, exciting web design. Among other things, a par 3 à la "Pebble Beach" - from the elevated tee into the wind towards the sea on the greens - hopp or topp, no chance to Rumschwuchteln... Wonderful, long-drawn, leading downhill par 5 to the financial statements - to play on the original-modern to the clubhouse, which stranded a flying saucer equal perched on the cliff - visually just great!
But it is not just individual holes, at least visually stand out here - on the contrary - it's the vast majority. Maximum, there may be 2 to 3 lanes that are not "spectacular," but "only" "very good ".
Unlike similar-scale coastal places such as "Pezula"free from disturbing development - just pure nature. Hopefully it stays that way! The fauna shows of interesting (to me at least Central Europeans) page - it cavort funny hyrax (as some kind of inflated battle guinea pigs in Marmot size) to the Railways.
The condition is impeccable, the service everywhere - almost intrusive. Persecution to the parking lot to load the bags into the car from the Cart - Bat cleaning included, latürnich!
The course is not overly long (at least from the regular green tees with 5.814m / 4.903m red) or extremely difficult - really hard but he is probably in the wind. Or you play right from the blue tees Champions (6.460m) - because if you need it hard.
I really recommend a cart. Partly because of the long distances, partly because of the hilly terrain, partly as protection against the wind - but mainly to drive fast even a few meters to the best place for the next photo - no means forget the camera!
Conclusion: It is essential to play if you're nearby. If not - necessarily go,-fly,-beam - whatever, the main thing now and play! Clearly 5 + star (the"Bear Golf Ranking ": 10 of 10 points). (NB: Whether's interested or not - my other two top 3 worldwide"Punta Espada "in the Dominican Republic and"Druids Glen" in Ireland..)

Great Place
Reviewed March 3, 2014
This place is really worth the money. The carts are even equipped with GPS (no extra charge). Carts are mandatory, which, given the long distances between green and next tee is also understandable.
The site offers many great views, but like almost all places in South Africa something very sheeted. Greens and fairways were in excellent condition.
Rate this place you should play absolutely.
A note at the end: The driving range is very far from the first tee. If you want to take, you should take one already two hours before the scheduled tee time at the clubhouse.

A dream place
Reviewed February 2, 2014
We have played many golf courses in South Africa already, but Pinnacle Point remains for me just a very special experience. Probably the most beautiful place I have ever played. It's not about the greens or fairways but rather the fantastic layout and magnificent views. Just a dream. Especially in the late afternoon light with deep space is always beautiful. Clubhouse, service, grounds maintenance, price / performance, everything was great!

Never played a better place!
Reviewed November 26, 2013
End of November, 2013, Pinnacle Point is presented in good condition, the greens are a little slower than expected, but that's about all there is to complain about. The price of 750 Rand incl Card (about 55 Euro p. Person) we feel is very reasonable if you compare this course with the raised prices in Spain or Portugal. We've played a lot of places around the world, but this place is just terrific. Each lane spectacular, the architect of this place is a genius with true visions. Dear Golfer, packs enough balls one, any inaccuracy is punished with total loss of the ball, to Halfwaypause You can, however, in the Proshop Balle "reload" :-) I'd rather not count the blows, but not fret about lost balls, but just enjoy and be thankful that one was able to experience this great place!
PS: Eating out in Mossel Bay: Restaurant: "Kingfisher", perfect location overlooking the ocean!

Magnificent views - great caddies - Cart only with loving welcome of the whole team. Terrific maintained course with fast greens. Extra spacing between flights - you can peacefully enjoy the game and the view.
Challenging course - my recommendation Hcp 25 for women - what I want to say - Ladies safer 90-100 m beat - Men's 140 meters - otherwise you have no joy on the court since this length is needed for the discount - otherwise you have no Fun to overcome obstacles. Rather take a shorter tee so you can enjoy the place to the fullest.
This place in Mossel Bay is allowed to omit any case - of Knysna are many good golf courses to achieve.

One of the most spectacular golf courses in South Africa. Not for nothing was this place among the 10 best new golf courses in recent years. No longer to improving care and courtesy of the Green Keeper. In wind it is better to take a deduction less and / or take a few more balls on the round to come halfway reasonable on the green. A place with little wind, with its fantastic views of the Indian Ocean and whales, to enjoy.
