Golf is a precision club-and-ball sport, in which competing players (or golfers), using many types of clubs, attempt to hit balls into each hole on a golf course while employing the fewest number of strokes.

It is one of the few ball games that does not require a standardized playing area. Instead, the game is played on golf “courses”, each of which features a unique design, although courses typically consist of either nine or eighteen holes. Golf is defined, in the rules of golf, as “playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive strokes in accordance with the Rules.”

Our Costa Rican experience dates all the way back to 1977, when first arriving at this lovely country.  Much has changed over the years, as we now have a variety of golf courses instead of just only the two that were available back in the 70′s.

Costa Rica has just recently been ‘discovered’ as a fabulous golf destination. Within the Central Valley near the capital, San José, there are several courses, and there are now four or five courses on the Pacific coast.

With the worldwide popularity of golf, it is no wonder then that Costa Rica has a number of golf courses and resorts across the country to satisfy even the most avid golfer. While a lot of large scale Costa Rica golf resorts being currently developed, the province of Guanacaste is home to the largest number of golf courses in the country. Not only are these courses set amidst some of the most beautiful scenic backdrops, but they are truly world class.

Proudly, we offer some of the world’s  least crowded golf courses.  Carefully tucked into the natural surroundings, Costa Rican courses vary from rolling fairways, lined with rare tropical hardwoods, to open links style nestled between mountains and flowering valleys with challenging greens overlooking sandy beaches and ocean.  Golfing in Costa Rica is a unique experience!   Blessed with near perfect weather, majestic mountain peaks and volcanoes, secluded coastlines, luxurious golf resorts and a passionate and friendly people,  it’s no surprise that Costa Rica has now become a premier golfing destination
