Yalong Bay Golf Club
Despite being one of Hainan’s oldest courses, Yalong Bay retains its status as one of the island’s most enjoyable. Situated in the up-market tourist resort of the same name, the palm-fringed course is within walking distance of a slew of beach-fronted five-star hotels and features an excellent mix of holes in first-rate condition. No surprise then that the course, which was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. who incorporated memorable water hazards into his layout, has been chosen to host a number of European and Asian Tour events since opening in 2000.
Clearwater Bay Golf Club
The two courses at Clearwater Bay Golf Club act as centrepieces for a vast upscale residential and hotel resort situated a 45-minute drive from Sanya.
The A Course here has been built on a flat parcel of land and should be the choice for beginners, given its playability. While the white-sand bunkers that frame many of the holes are large, the landing areas are generally very wide and the greens aren’t overly contoured. The B Course, which is hillier in nature, is more strategic of a strategic challenge and, as such, a more enticing proposition for the better player.
