The best golf resorts in the world
We round up the best golf resorts in the world for a luxury getaway, so you can take to the fairways in style.
Film stars, presidents and prime ministers have been visiting the Costa Brava to stay at the prestigious Hostal de La Gavina since 1932. This year, the luxury hotel is launching tailored golfing experiences that combine world-class play with a relaxed coastal stay on this stunning stretch of coastline in northeastern Spain.
Golfers will also want to visit Camiral, a Quinta do Lago Resort, situated a 25-minute drive away. It is home to two acclaimed 18-hole golf courses and, in 2031, it will host the Ryder Cup. And just ten minutes from La Gavina is Club Golf d'Aro – Mas Nou, a top golf course with the extra benefit of sweeping sea views. The hotel's new Golf Concierge can arrange visits, private tuition and access to the driving range. Guests can unwind afterwards with a restorative sports massage at the Spa by Valmont. Actor Sean Connery was a frequent guest of Hostal de La Gavina in the 1970s, who often made use of the area's world-class golf facilities.
From €380 a night, including breakfast, visit lagavina.com.

The Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita has re-emerged after a transformative seven-month renovation last year as a premier golf destination in the Indian Ocean. The resort offers privileged access to two stunning championship courses – the Ernie Els-designed Anahita Golf Club and the Bernhard Langer signature course at Ile aux Cerfs. Both golf courses are situated amid the spectacular scenery of mountains, lakes and lush tropical flora. As part of stay at the Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita, players receive a daily, complimentary round of golf, inviting golfers of all skill levels to tee off on these world-class fairways or take advantage of expert, one-on-one coaching to perfect their swing. Travelling between the resort and the green couldn't be easier either. There is a complimentary golf shuttle that runs to Anahita Golf Club, along with a complimentary boat transfer that takes guests to Ile aux Cerf Golf Club.
Eden Roc Cap Cana is the Dominican Republic's only two-key Michelin resort, offering an unparalleled island getaway tailored specifically for golf enthusiasts. The facilities are centred around the world-renowned, Jack Nicklaus-designed Punta Espada Golf Course. This luxury Relais & Châteaux property is also the first in the Caribbean to provide a dedicated “golf butler” – an on-call specialist who seamlessly manages tee times, equipment deliveries and who is able to arrange recovery treatments, such as Eden Roc Cap Cana's signature Deep Body Golf Ball Massage. As for the accommodation, every guest staying in a private villa has the use of a personal golf cart to explore the exclusive Cap Cana neighbourhood. Upgrade to the Ocean & Golf Villa, and you get access to a 24-hour butler and private chef, while the spectacular Founder's Villa boasts sweeping beach views and direct access to the greens.
