The beautiful sea-side golf course Garra de Leon sits in one of the very most beautiful settings in all  of Costa Rica.  Designed by the world renown golf course architect, Robert Trent Jones ll, this exciting course is a true pleasure to play.  Open and forgiving, good scores are common on the very first round here. 

Whether it's being at the beach, being surrounded by hills of jungle in Costa Rica, or maybe it's the village atmosphere of such a lovely and luxurious hotel nestled into this pristine valley on the edge of the pacific ocean that makes this resort so special.  Or maybe it's the combination of this great course within the beautiful  surroundings that has made this a golfer's tropical paradise.

A very typical Robert Trent Jones design with great views. This beach-side course will have you smiling, even if you are not playing so good.

 

Four Seasons Golf Club Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo

Designed by Arnold Palmer, this 18-hole, par-72 championship course was designed with the resort golfer in mind. Spanning over 50 hectares (125 acres), this beautiful piece of property sits on the tip of Peninsula Papagayo, nestled in the mountainside along the Pacific Ocean.

The course plays 6,788 yards from the championship tees for the low-handicap golfer, but is accessible to golfers at all levels, with four other sets of tees.
