The Robert
Trent Jones II-designed Garra de Leon ( Lionės Paw ) Golf Course
serves as a magnificient centerpiece to the most luxurious resort in
Central America-- the Melia Playa Conchal Beach & Golf Resort.
Jones fulfilled his goal of creating another masterpiece, one that
blends harmoniously into the natural Costa Rica countryside. |
The course can be challenging enough from the back tees
(7,080 yards) to host a professional event, but one that the resort guests
will enjoy from the other three or four sets of tees, ranging from 5,446
to 6,624 yards. With panoramic views of the Blue Pacific from many of the
holes, the course meanders through rolling hills with sun-drenched
fairways bordered by native forests--you might even see howler monkeys.
|
In addition, there are enough lakes and ravines to put
a premium on accurate approach shots to large Bermuda greens
manicured just like those at country clubs in the USA.
