May -24th May 2001. A very well presented course, with fairways and greens in excellent condition. The staff are very attentive and knowledgeable. Hotel and clubhouse facilities are good.
Downsides are the length of time to play a round and the lack of anyone marshalling the course.
Round times of 5 hours plus are common. Do not go into the bunkers, as escape from them is extremely difficult due to poor quality sand. For residents at the Hotel, it is best to dine at the Hotel, as there is not a good choice at the Marina, which in May was almost deserted. However my round took 5 hours and 20 minutes which completely took away my enjoyment. Obviously the course is very busy and with all the revenue that this generates it is surely not too much to expect that staff are employed to ensure that the course is properly marshalled.
