Scotsman David McLay Kidd was called in to design Laucala’s championship golf course, a stunning 18-hole layout backdropped by volcanic mountains and clinging to a sheer cliff dropping into the Pacific Ocean.
Kidd’s par-72 layout has been thoughtfully integrated into the environment, with minimal impact on the island’s old coconut plantation area. Undulating fairways, challenging greens and strategic bunkers will appeal to both experienced and novice golfers, while signature holes include the par-five 12th with a green extending to the beach, which means wet feet at high tide.
A golfing professional is on hand should guests need tips to improve their swing, and caddies, buggies and clubs are all available in the Club House.
