El Gouna, Res Sea, Egypt

Characteristics

Ancient Sands offers a world-class, 18-hole, par 73 championship golf course and a state-of-the-art 3-hole golf academy with a full practice facility, designed by world-renowned golf course architect Karl Litten. Ancient Sands Golf Course is an oasis in the midst of the development. The course

carefully balances the desert landscape with lush fairways to create a truly enjoyable course, designed to appeal to golfers of all standards.

The course follows the natural topography of the site, with lagoons creating natural water hazards for many of the holes. Several greens approach shots over lagoons, with holes 13, 15, and 18 featuring semi-island greens. Hole 2 is a 600-meter Par 6, a one-of-a-kind design not found anywhere in the region.

No alternative to GC El Gouna

Having loved the El Gouna golf course, we wanted to try the Ancient Sands GC for a change. Our conclusion right off the bat: For us, it doesn't offer a comparable alternative to the El Gouna GC.
The first 12 holes of Ancient Sands are relatively monotonous to play. The fairways are lined with villas currently undergoing extensive construction. Only from the 13th tee onwards does the course become more varied in terms of scenery and playability. The increasing number of water hazards provides the long-awaited change of pace.
The course is in fairly good condition, but the bunkers are relatively hard. It's a decent course to play for a change of pace, but it's not a must-play.

Well maintained with upside potential

The first nine holes are quite new, which is also reflected in the vegetation. There are no water hazards and they play fairly straight. The back nine are more attractive with more obstacles.
Overall, a pleasant experience.

Well-maintained, but an unspectacular place.

The relatively long course measures 6,263 m from the 2nd men's tee (yellow), is par 73, and plays correspondingly long in relatively strong winds.
The first nine holes are unremarkable, although the 2nd hole stands out as a par 6 (!) measuring 570 meters. The back nine offer more excitement, as several water hazards need to be negotiated.
The course is well maintained, the fairways are excellent, the greens are relatively fast, the bunkers are hard but manageable!
The distances between holes are very long, especially from green 9 to tee 10.
