People give out about pace of play, I expected slow golf and that's what I got, did it ruin the day, no chance, the course is a bit weird with a few long drives between holes but still some very interesting holes and layout. I have read several reviews and some are quite confusing.įirstly myself and my 2 sons are single figure golfers and this is a genuine review as of today. Recommend the course, and likewise if you’re worried about slow play, book an early tee time. Reading reviews I’m guessing some people might come across them when the course is full and they’re stressed but I had no problems whatsoever. Grounds men were all friendly, called me through etc, had a chat. Greens very receptive and held shots well.Īll in all another great experience. There’s plenty of holes where a well placed iron is the go instead of risking driver. Also the driving iron in the bag was a god send. My back was a bit sore so I took a club down on most options and just slowed down. ![]() Location, scenery, layout all absolutely stunning. I couldn’t read them but that wasn’t the greenskeepers fault. Grounds crews were out manicuring bunkers and you could tell. Fairways are absolutely spot on, everywhere. Played at a very leisurely pace and got around in 3 hours and 10.Ĭourse is superb. I was on my own with only one group of members ahead of me. Was booked for 7.30 and the course marshall let me get away before a four ball. Pleased with the setup, pretty sure they came out in about 2017 and were in fairly good nick. Anyhow I ended up getting them via phone and sorted out a package including clubs, round and cart for €180.Ĭlubs were Srixion Z565 and they suited me well, pretty sure they are all standard length, seemed to have a range of shaft flexes available, and set had both a driving iron and 3 wedges (PW, 52, 58 clevelands). Resort sent it to the pro shop who took a few days to respond. Previously played in 2017 and had great experience.įirstly I couldn’t work out how to organise hire clubs so sent the resort an email. In Limassol with family so thought I’d play the course again. Once again, many thanks for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back to Aphrodite Hills soon!

We are sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience upon the check-in of your round. ![]() On behalf of Aphrodite Hills Golf Club, we thank you for your review! We were fortunate enough to grab a tee time at The Secret Valley golf course and the staff were more than hospitable. ![]() What was even funnier is they would also charge €25 for her to do so. It seems as though if there was a Nike tick on my partners dress she would’ve been allowed to spectate. I received an email apologising for the way the staff member spoke to us and we were sent rules & dress code for the course. Golf is supposed to be an inclusive sport and it’s quite evident Aphrodite Hills are way behind the times. Therefore, I refused to part with my money and I will never return or recommend this course to anyone. Common sense didn’t prevail when I tried to explain she would only be driving the buggy. She wasn’t playing and in my (yes, biased) opinion the dress was acceptable and there was no need for the pro shop staff to be so rude towards her. The lady in the pro shop flat out told my partner “you have to change”. My partner decided to come and watch me play, however, we were told she wasn’t allowed on the course because she was wearing a dress. The most pretentious, stuck up staff I’ve ever come across.
