Dubai Creek Golf Club |
Situated in the heart of the city on the shores of the Creek, Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is a golfers' paradise. The championship standard golf course is the centre piece of a resort that incorporates the luxury 225-bedroom Park Hyatt Dubai and 92 four bedroom executive villas, alongside a 121-berth marina, Yacht Club, Golf Clubhouse, Golf Academy and six restaurants.
The club's 18-hole, par 71 course rolls 6,857 undulating yards along well-groomed fairways lined with date and coconut palms, water hazards and shrubbery that lend a distinctly tropical air. The course boasts a new front nine, re-designed by Thomas Björn, and re-modelled tees, greens and topography on the back nine, providing a challenge for residents and tourists alike.
The Creek's Golf Academy offers a nine-hole Par 3 course in addition to a spacious driving range and putting, chipping and bunker practice greens, with all facilities floodlit until 10.00pm. The club also offers a Golf Swing Analysis Centre, Club Fitting Centre and two Pro Shops offering all the latest in golfing accessories and equipment.
Dubai Creek's unique restaurants offer a wide variety of culinary experiences. For fine dining, there is Legends Steakhouse and the stunning Aquarium seafood restaurant with its floor-to-ceiling aquarium. For guests looking for a more casual alternative, there is The Boardwalk built on wooden tiers over the Creek, LakeView, the Academy Café and QD's. Each of these venues has outside dining options, with terraces overlooking the rolling greens of the golf course or soothing waters of the Creek.
