Regardless of whether you’re a weekend golfer or a seasoned player, planning a vacation at a golf resort is a great idea. It’s fun and relaxing at the same time! But – before booking a stay – you must ask yourself a couple of questions. Are you looking for a place that offers other activities, too (not just golf)? Would you like to explore golf courses suited for pro players? Or – perhaps – you are more interested in courses designed by well-known names?
Once you narrow down your priorities, it will be easier to make a choice between all the amazing golf resorts available. In the article below, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite stays for golf enthusiasts (and their loved ones). Let’s jump in!
