Legendary course architect Robert Trent Jones Jr. is the designer of the 18-hole, par 71 Bay Course. The world renowned golf course Architect has commented: "The Bay Course is sculpted out of the earth and rock of Greek soil, much like the marble statues of the ancients. Those deities were noble and graceful, and the golf course now reflects the same sense of beauty. This golf experience will last the test of time, to be loved and enjoyed through all the senses by those who come to play the golf course".

With a layout offering panoramic sea and mountain views, a unique feature of the course is its proximity to the water where some holes run directly beside the historic Bay of Navarino. You can also enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the Bay. The 18-hole, par-71 Bay Course, measuring 5,620 metres from the back tees and featuring four sets of tee positions, provides a great overall golf experience tio both Professionals and Amateurs alike. The Bay Course features amenities for your enjoyment like extensive practice facilities for lessons and coaching sessions as well as the ability to host full-service group and tournament events.

Set in a diverse, already mature landscape, the course has been designed to provide an exciting challenge for golfers of all levels. The Bay Course offers holes interchanging between three distinct environments of seaside, canyon and grove views, creating striking contrasts, blending seamlessly into the natural environment. The golf course contains olive trees some dating back centuries.

Very nice, but a lot of improvement

2.0 of 5 starsReviewed April 29, 2019

Positive:
- Very nice place
- very well maintained

Negative:
- The starter should urgently think about his appearance. I have not only once annoyed him.
- Around the course has been a major construction site for two years. The resulting noise significantly affects the game of golf. I was hoping that this would end with the completion of the new clubhouse (now expected in May 2019). Unfortunately that does not seem to be the case, because the foundations are just for the planned hotel and the planned villas.
- The fourth fairway was shortened from par 4 to par 3 last year. This has taken the train any charm.
- The allocation of start times is a bit strange. We have now (April) tried to get some more enjoyable tee times for the end of September - supposedly everything is closed between 9:30 and 12:30. That seems to me then quite incredible.
- At Garmin and TomTom the changes in the course (new hole 3, holes 14 and 13 are now 5 and 6) still have not arrived. TomTom told me last year that you need the operator's cooperation for an update.

Dear Mr. FrankH,

Thank you very much for taking time to share your feedback in regards to your experience in our course.

We truly appreciate your valuable comments. We are happy to see that you have booked already for September.

Our brand new earth-sheltered Clubhouse for The Bay Course, will open its doors in two weeks. It has been uniquely designed and almost invisible to the eye, meaning that our players will only realize its dynamic and innovative design as they reach the entrance. It has a premium location at Navarino Bay and its outdoor spaces will benefit from spectacular views over the Bay of Navarino and the stunning Bay Course.

This new clubhouse will feature restaurant and bar facilities, enabling golf enthusiasts to unwind and enjoy outdoors dining having spent the day on this world-class golf course. This summer Funky Gourmet Pop – Up brings a 2 Michelin stars dining experience.

We are positive that this one-of-a-kind project will contribute to the destination’s positioning among the golfers’ favorite destinations globally.

We are looking forward to welcoming you back, rest assure you will have an fantastic and joyful golf experience.

Warmest Regards,
Maria Garcia Izquierdo

A great course

4.0 of 5 starsReviewed March 4, 2019

As some wrote, some construction sites currently affect the appearance but clearly. Nevertheless, in my opinion, this is an excellent place in a very good condition and very fast and difficult greens. Regularly results in a great (albeit impaired) view of the sea.

The course is not too long due to some short par 3. But swallowed a lot of my balls. Gladly again.

Actually beautiful - but...

1.0 of 5 starsReviewed October 10, 2018

Actually a beautifully landscaped golf course - much more interesting than the neighbor Dunes. ACTUALLY!! If there were not this giant construction site with the deafening noise and the terrible exhaust odor of the giant bulldozer.
Already on the two you hardly get air, so much the diesel exhaust blows. The new three can be reached via a temporary path, which is bordered by meter-high fences. The four - actually one of the most beautiful holes right on the sea - is now closed to two-thirds and only a short par 3 - still accompanied by martial noise. And so it goes on and on: At least 10 holes are bothered directly by the construction site for the clubhouse and apartments - and that is guaranteed for the next two years.
We played in the Viererflight in mid September in the best weather. Per pair with a cart for a sumptuous 328.- Euro. There was no discount. We have renounced further start times.

Dear PuttingQueen,

Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us.

We are sorry to hear that your golf time with us was not up to the high standards that we are committed to provide to our guests. We are actually developing a uniquely Clubhouse at The Bay Course with the aim to offer our guests an even better experience. Construction works only began just a while ago and will be ready by March 2019. The clubhouse offer breathtaking views as it is located at the highest point of the Navarino Bay area. Our golfers will continue to enjoying the highest quality standards of the course and services, and will even gain from an enhanced golf experience.

I am taking the opportunity to inform you about the partnership between Costa Navarino and Ryder Cup legend José Maria Olazábal, for the design of the two new 18-hole world-class golf courses at Navarino Hills, expected to open for play by 2021. (Stretching over 150 hectares, the two courses, are set high above the coastline offering panoramic views to The Bay Course, the historic Bay of Navarino, the Ionian Sea and the rich Messinian countryside). The Navarino Hills development will bring the total number of signature golf courses at Costa Navarino to four, all within a 13km distance and under the same management, establishing it as one of the few upscale golf destinations around the world combining such characteristics.

Please see below link: https://www. youtube. com/watch? v=XwJf0zY9t_Q&feature=youtu. be

Thanks a lot for your feedback and I look forward to welcoming you to the Golf courses of Costa Navarino soon.

Please contact me directly in case you wish to visit Costa Navarino. I will be more than pleased to be of your service.

Best Regards,
Maria Garcia Izquierdo
