Bunker without end
Reviewed January 28, 2024
Played on 1/24/24 Fareways, bunkers and green in perfect condition.
Fareways had to be looked for on certain holes between the bunkers; therefore very difficult to play.

Ernie did well
Reviewed March 29, 2023
Played on 3/21/2023. Designed by Ernie Else, the 18 holes are located just outside of Dubai between the Jumeirah Golf Estate and Trump International Golf Club in a district called Dubai Sport City. The signs to the club could be a bit clearer. The design is a varied resort course with lots of waste areas and some very deep and well placed bunkers (not quite as extreme as on the Earth course). There are also two/three lanes where water comes into play. You should do yourself a favor and, depending on your HC, take the front tee box for the tees and not overestimate yourself, even if most of the fairways are very open. The fairways are mostly surrounded by pretty villas, some of which are still under construction, as you can see and hear, as is the case with almost all courses in Dubai. The condition was impeccable, the greens slightly undulating and fast. Some greens, for example on the 9, have sharply sloping edges, so that the ball may roll in front of your feet again. There are one or two refreshment stations on the course and you can tap water at least every second hole. Game operations on a Tuesday morning were lively but not overcrowded. We paid €135 per person for the green fee, booked via the VIJA app with an early bird discount. Cart with GPS and range balls are included. The clubhouse is large and modern. A bag and a few utensils by Ernis Els are on display in the men's changing room with a relaxation basin. The employees, from the ProShop to the starters, are all very friendly. After the round, of course, the clubs are cleaned. You really can't go wrong here, in my opinion the Else Course is one of the more interesting courses in Dubai and is worth playing.

Played on 11/18/2022 Place layout and care very well. Difficult to play because the flags were very demanding today. With Dubai Hills the best place in Dubai. 👍😊

Hard and beautiful
Reviewed November 8, 2019
Beautiful golf course. No defects in the place condition. Despite high temperatures super fairways and greens. Long heavy par 4 holes. Certainly one of the hardest places in Dubai.

Excellent course but very demanding
Reviewed May 19, 2019
The ELS Club itself is from the logger room to restaurants very noble and distinguished to look at. The food in the restaurant suits Lokation.
The course looks not only visually sophisticated, but it is him. The quality of the course is very high. I played the course in April 2019 and so far I knew the greens, of the speed, only from America. A play from the pre-green is completely sufficient with the putter enough to control the ball on the fast greens. What is particularly challenging are the bunkers which come in play very often and require that man or woman from the bunker can play, otherwise you go here with a very high score from the square. But despite the difficulty, the course should be a "must have" in the history of any good golfer visiting Dubai. If you want to play the courses in Dubai and Abu Dabi, you should definitely start your teeoff. com, as the green fee players will be able to make an inexpensive reservation here.

Heavy and beautiful place
Reviewed January 5, 2019
Ernie did a good job here. Beautiful design, large waste areas, sophisticated bunkers and Turtleback greens challenge a lot. Great training opportunities, good restaurants, very well-kept place. Definitely play, you will not be disappointed!

Great place and club
Reviewed April 4, 2018
The place is well maintained, not too crowded and well managed. The greens are the hardest thing that happened to me so far. All dome-like vaulted, you have to be very precise pitching, chipping and putting, otherwise the score is gone.
The facility is located just outside the marina and the traffic noise is not as present as on Dubai's golf courses.
The club area leaves nothing to be desired, a spacious, shaded terrace, which is connected to the restaurant, invites you to linger before and after the game. The range is generous, but unfortunately does not offer a shady tee-off place.
We will come back!

World Class
Reviewed March 13, 2014
One of the bestgepflegten places in Dubai, with an excellent Gesamtanbiente like club, clubhouse, course layout, course maintenance and fast, undulating greens.
Where there that know that this one will be cleaned up immediately while training on the driving range, according to each club use?
In short, a sensational place

Top-conditioning
Reviewed January 3, 2014
The place has by his numerous bunkers and sandy areas a desert-like character. Fairways and greens very well maintained.
Clubhouse, driving range and service is absolutely first class.
Cons:
Expensive (as almost everywhere in Dubai) Normal Price converted per person approx € 180 - (incl. stroller)
Unfortunately, due to the high construction activities on the edge of the square (as usual in Dubai) sometimes a bit loud.
