Abu Dhabi Golf Club offers one of the most luxurious golf resort experiences within the Middle East, in full management with the renowned worldwide golf resort management organizations of excellence, Troon Golf. Fifteen minutes from the city centre and just ten minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport, Abu Dhabi Golf Club is perfectly located for domestic and international guests.
An oasis of tranquility carved out of the desert, Abu Dhabi Golf Club features 27 Championship holes of golf, over 162 hectares of land. The course features an undulating terrain meandering through pockets of palms, ornamental trees and shrubs with seven spectacular saltwater lakes.
Situated majestically overlooking the golf course is the iconic, Falcon Clubhouse, built in the shape of a falcon with its wings outstretched, peering over the 9th and 18th greens. As you look across the lakes from the far end of the course, the clubhouse dominates the scene. It is a spectacular, superbly-designed building that creates an atmosphere of relaxed elegance. The 27 hole championship course, home to the PGA European Tour Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship, provides a tough but fair challenge, with lush fairways, strategically placed bunkers and generous greens.
Described as a "super course" by leading sections of the golfing press, the 162 hectares of the Abu Dhabi Golf Club features one of the finest world-class 27-hole championship golfing facility in the Middle East.
Designed by Peter Harradine, planting had begun way back in 1992, accounting for the well established look the Club presented even on the day of its inauguration.
