Fantastic - crazy

He, Arnold Palmer is one of the Big Five - as a golfer but also as a course designer - you can not even argue about that.
We've certainly played a dozen Palmer seats. It is always very impressive, he plays with the different design element with great ease.
We think here he has succeeded another masterpiece.
In the completely flat terrain he has built a strongly undulating course - not only the fairways are it also the greens - thanks to immense earth movements. Sometimes you think you are in Scotland, the big deep bunkers with poisonous edges are spread all over the course, defending the greens very well. But the Teeformen, long and narrow without uniform contours fit.
Thanks to these movements of the earth, some of the big lakes have sprung up, the water of which is now and then in the water.
He managed to demand several blind teashots from the player - amazing. The fairways are wide - some very wide - the driver is allowed to work well, is also necessary if you want to play his par..
Weast aereas in abundance, starting with tea along the fairways to the green. These are very good to play - although the edges are high - the ball rolls into a position that allows you to make a clean punch, even with long clubs. The material is very good - not too rough.
The greens are very undulating with few exceptions - built with considerable height differences. They are tough and very fast - 11StM - but very good to play.
The place is still young. The play area is in a very good condition - well established - and so well maintained. In addition, it takes some time until the vegetation is top.
It was a lot of fun to play here, everyone brought a good score to Hase - no ball losses. However, target golf is mandatory - the course is very challenging, the greens especially.
As always with new resort, it is diligently built, houses, tennis courts, the clubhouse and a large pool. It is a very generous facility, much is already finished.
Everything you need, very nice courteous staff.
Five stars worth of this course - no question - in comparison to Esplanade a very different caliber.
