The Pro-shop manager called, John Dent, who is a pro Golf instructor himself, is an unethical, rude and arrogant individual.
I approached him to purchase a full set of Golf clubs as I figured he would be the best person to help me choose the most ideal items for me. The 12-club set he put together didn't have a driver!!! When I approached him to make amends on the purchase, he was rude and unethical and STATED THAT ONE DOES NOT NEED A DRIVER TO PLAY GOLF AND THAT A 5 WOOD THAT HE HAD SELECTED WOULD DO THE SAME JOB!!! I guess Tiger woods should take John Dent's advice and alter his method and never opt for having a DRIVER in his bag!! Thus far, I have never called anyone A THIEF but I guess there is a first time for everything.
Additionally, the quality of lessons with the instructors is EXTREMELY LOW. Worse yet, the instructors portray a sense of boredom and demotivation and overtly state that they are seeking other lines of work in general - outside of Golf!!! I ask you: How can a beginner get excited in assuming Golf as a lifelong hobby, pastime or sport when your first instructor is so low in morale?
Notwithstanding the above, the instructors solely watch the student swinging and make minimal corrections waiting the lessons to end - intermittently hitting a couple of balls to show and satisfy their own dexterity. There are no CDs, no booklets, no videos shot during students work for students to analyze their swings and stances etc prior to, during or even at the end of any lessons!!! All this is a pathetic exhibition of incompetence and complacency.
Unfortunately, John Dent, is also responsible for the training and the methodology used in lessons conducted in Antalya Golf Club as he is supposedly the most senior instructor there.
I ask ALL Smart Golf lovers to stay FAR FAR AWAY from this Golf course and opt for other Golf courses in Belek who do employ ethical, professional and enthusiastic staff members. We are going to try Karya next. Wish us luck...

Well-kept place including unfriendly staff
Reviewed December 21, 2023
I played Pasha on November 24th, 2023.
When you arrive you find yourself in front of the quite impressive clubhouse. The reception was, to put it mildly, very reserved, you could also say, like my predecessor, unfriendly. My questions were answered sparingly or not at all. This was the only place in Belek so far where I couldn't pay with euros; I had to use a credit card for every little thing, such as a logo ball. At least Marshall and the staff who cleaned the clubs were very friendly.
The driving range and the entire practice facility are very spacious.
There are also regulations on this golf course that only golfers with a low handicap are allowed to play, but there are no controls.
The fairways and bunkers are in good condition. The greens are partly very undulating and fast, making them not easy to play. I didn't find the Pasha very varied, the first 9 holes are almost entirely straight, the second 9 holes are a bit more demanding and varied because water often came into play.
I'd rather not go into my negative experiences in the restaurant, at least as far as the service is concerned. But the food was good and the price-performance ratio was right.
For me to give it 5 stars, everything has to be right. The place was really good, but the service could be improved, therefore only 4 stars.

A great place in a very good condition. Top tees, top fairways and well-kept greens. We had a very good place booked today on December 1st but hardly any waiting times. We booked our Belek vacation through Bilyana. Great service with a very punctual shuttle service

A smile costs nothing
Reviewed August 18, 2023
I played the Sultan and Pasha courses twice in March 2023 as part of a golf trip. Pasha is a bit easier and suitable for "normal golfers", Sultan is much more difficult, but also more spectacular.
The condition of both places was excellent and is unparalleled. Sultan in particular impressed with his accurate fairways and greens. I have not experienced a better place condition so far.
The driving range also left nothing to be desired. It's hardly possible to do better.
So why am I only giving it 4 stars? That's easy to explain. All employees of the golf club bribed with an incredible unfriendliness. You never felt welcome here. Whether at reception, in the restaurant or at the tee box. A smile or a kind word were non-existent. Unbelievable, but also a shame.
This was only crowned by the field marshal, who felt that he had to be extremely impertinent to a flight of women from our group who were stuck behind four completely drunk Americans. Unfortunately for him, the lady flight was the personnel manager of a large insurance company, a psychiatrist and a lawyer. He will never forget the day.
A total of two great places that are worth playing. If the golf club staff are also nice to their guests, the full points are awarded.

Both places are in a dream condition. pascha. is a little shorter, you should play from the next back tee. Sultan is a little more demanding. But if you are in Belek, you should play both courses.

Two great golf courses!
Reviewed October 18, 2021
We played both courses - "Pasha" and "Sultan" - several times during our golf vacation. The condition of both places is perfect and at a high level. Since "Pasha" is a relatively short course, it is advisable to take the next back tee. The first 9 holes are rather easy; on the second 9 holes it gets a bit more demanding (hole 13 is a nice par 5). "Pasha" is an appealing vacation spot! Overall, "Sultan" is more of a challenge and requires strategic play if you want to get a good result. The deep bunkers on the fairway, which you can usually not see from the tees, are tricky. In any case, a birdie book is recommended. For us, hole 16 is the most beautiful hole on the course! Be sure to play!

Sultan a tour place definitely!! Range Top!!!
But unfortunately, as on all other places in Belek no Hcp limit... Long waits at the tee and thus laps under five hours almost impossible... unfortunately there is no predetermined tea classification for high hcp to speed up the flow of the game.. would be advantageous, as some totally overestimate!!!

Check start times!
Reviewed April 13, 2019
Did you want to play the sultan yesterday, then you were surprised to find that our start time was changed? Our start time was pushed back so that a larger group could start closed before us. Why our organizer, and so we were also not informed, is very questionable. I just got a hint at the counter, I'm H & H customer? Otherwise, the place is in good condition.

Reviewed March 4, 2018
I (Handicap 22) between 24.2. and 2.3. played the Pasha and Sultankurs 3 times each. Both courses were in top condition. The greens were not too fast but consistent. Good was the service. Unfortunately, there was no Birdiebook to buy for the Sultankurs, which led to some ball losses in the many water hazards and too many bunker strikes when playing for the first time. Both courses are recommended, but the Sultankurs for beginners and PR players is not suitable.

Really difficult to play
Reviewed May 20, 2017
Have the Sultan Square at the end of April 17 played.
The place was in perfect condition. Fairways and greens.
The course is really difficult and for beginners barely manageable.
The service in the restaurant leaves a lot to be desired, should someone come to the table, one at the latest with the excessive exaggerated high bill pointed out that one for a small beer, local Efes, mi 5, - have let over the table.
Conclusion, the place sensational and the drink after the round you should first in the hotel.

Highly recommended
Reviewed December 10, 2014
Despite a period of bad weather the place was very playable and in top condition. I found the place not too narrow, because even if someone had cleared a ball could find the ball off the fairway well and bring back into the game. The sophisticated (undulating) greens were in very good condition made, the PAR-play difficult. Wiir played from yellow and found the place relatively short, but the sometimes difficult greens resembled "the Short" from.

Very good, but not for beginners.
Reviewed April 1, 2014
End of March 2014 each 3 x Pasha and Sultan played. Both courses were in outstanding condition care, from the Abschlagtees about fairways and greens to the side surfaces of the plant. There is also a modern and spacious clubhouse, which is among the best in Belek. Both sites show quite fast their teeth in narrow forest paths and undulating greens and provide more water and bunker obstacles, as it might be most visitors love. So then soaked in the course of many round the excessive hubris of many beginners realize that golf has perhaps something to do with sports and is more than accompanied walking green fee. Each transparency has even started, but it must be directly on the black slopes?

Played Pasha: Extremely good care condition!
Reviewed October 30, 2013
Have mid Oct 3rd courses in Belek played. My ranking is Pasha, just ahead of National, then by far the Dunes.
Place State:
Extremely well maintained! Deductions such as living room carpets. The place makes a very good overall impression! As everywhere, the greens were not particularly fast.
Course layout:
The course is nestled in a eucalyptus forest - the fairways thereby usually narrow, from what I've seen thus narrower than the famous brother Sultan.
From time to time you have a free view of the Taurus mountains in the hinterland.
It is difficult to highlight individual tracks - the place is just a great overall work of art and also played by WHITE length technically extremely challenging.
Highlighting is perhaps the 4, a short PAR4, in which it goes to the tee right over a blind crest in the green. Or 13, a PAR 5, the right side is almost completely limited by the water and the green-lined bunker with 15 shares.
Gastro / Club House:
Fits seamlessly to the great square state!
Overall conclusion:
This place the next time I play Belek definitely visit again - hopefully in combination with the Sultan, who is currently extremely booked due to last year's Invitational Tournament with Tiger Woods & Co..
A drawback, however, that the courts played by me applies to all: No ordinary tee signs with distances - despite 80-100 EUR greenfee you should just probably still have to buy a Birdiebook in Belek ... :-(

Best seats in Belek
Reviewed January 15, 2013
Not for nothing here have filed a brief stop for a Schowturnier dei PGA professionals. In my opinion there is no better her condition by nursing courses in Belek.
The only problem may occur naturally as andernen on any golf course also is that one imagines has a slow flight of a Duch does not play. But that's not the place but the people who play it.
The Pasha as a little brother, the Sultan is certainly not a walk and if you want ihne more difficult then try only once by the Backtees.
About the Sultan, I think you no longer need to waste words, a consistently successful Square also learn to become PGA professionals.
When you're playing strictly in the area.

Great golf!
Reviewed July 23, 2012
Travel time: in July 2012, Hcp 9 and 36 What was planned as a "normal" holiday, ended in daily golf on different courses. Here, the evaluation of the clubs we played today Antalya Golf Club, Pasha:
Total system / layout: 5 stars
Care status Fairways: 5 stars
Care status greens: 5 star
Driving Range: 5 stars
Club House: 4 stars
Service: 5 stars
Pro Shop: 5 stars
We played the first Passover space - a dream of AZ; Despite the season (some 40 degrees, no rain) are an absolute treat, especially good and mowed tees, lush fairways, fast greens loyal, maintained in every respect. Even Cart paths were tip top. The Pasha is indeed the shorter of the two 18 hole courses, but is in terms of design, trees and spectacular holes of the Sultan in nothing. Great golf fun all day and through our stay at the Kempinski verhältnismäßg also low at 45 EUR and 30 EUR pp cart - full points!
We then played the next day the Sultan:
Total system / layout: 5 stars
Care status Fairways: 5 stars
Care status greens: 5 star
Driving Range: 5 stars
Club House: 4 stars
Service: 5 stars
Pro Shop: 5 stars
About the general course maintenance, the layout (is quite similar in both places, the Pasha I, as a pure parkland course would call - a lot of trees, but never get unfair to the game, the Sultan is created rather extensive straight on the back 9 holes with less trees), tea boxes, fairways and greens I have already written above. The court heard in all categories the best that I've played in my meanwhile 26 years of golf worldwide. The Sultan is clearly the more demanding place - only the length makes it a difficult-to-play experience. The bunkers are strategically placed (unfortunately), so that a certain amount of space knowledge is not a hindrance.
In one of the reviews was a bit of "Birdie Book Buy" I did not do, because all distance are integrated into the Sprinklerdeckeln what should be standard on all seats already own these days. However, the purchase would have been worthwhile, some obstacles from the tee but are difficult to see. But that should not tarnish the overall impression - a great place with friendly staff and everything that makes a golfer's heart beat faster. Slightly more expensive than the Pasha, the Sultan is 60 EUR plus 30 EUR pp Cart (Guest Kempinski Price).
One small thing that could adversely note: although there is a drinks service, we never got the pass, however. I write this really the quiet season, because Pasha and Sultan could easily be played by us without reservations or tee times. Also, each player receives at the 1 and 10 enough (free) water, which is more than adequate as food for a Cart-round!

Early May is the perfect time of year.
Place was fully booked, but no unusual delays.
Great clubhouse and also in the hospitality, everything was perfect. From the friendly staff to the price-performance ratio.
Only the green fee was 140 euro including e-kart for me rather at the upper end of the price scale.
But.. Who is in Belek have "must" simply played the space.

Sultan and Pasha Golf
Reviewed September 16, 2011
Have you played this week the Sultan and Pasha.
Sultan: late start time at 14:00, and thus the last start time of the day, which has been fantastic, because we have the entire 18 holes no other golfer hit, square in the blast condition and recommended only
Pasha: Star time at 11:00 and a taste of what a likely expected in the season / winter; very long waiting times already on the par-4 first, since a total of 3 flights of four on the first hole.
Is recommended as a whole, even if it is hot to book a late start time, there is usually nothing more going on!
