Challenging course on a windy day but the scenery is to die for! A game on Dent Island is a must for the bucket list of any golfer!

We booked in for the $65 lunch special one day and included in package was a tour around the golf course in the golf buggy's. I was apprehensive as I'm not someone who is interested in golf but its a fantastic way to spend an afternoon. The tour around the island course was great and I really appreciated the layout... More

We planned to visit only once, but ended up playing 18-holes on two consecutive days. The service from course staff was flawless, we couldn't have asked for more. Course was so interesting and challenging, the views are one of the best we've experienced.

I confess I had not heard much about this golf club until we visited it, have come away most impressed. It's set on its own island and is an easy 10 minute boat ride from Hamilton island. The boats leave every hour and bookings are essential and you need to be wearing golf attire even if you are not playing... More

The Course is modern in design, very tight fairways with not much room for error. The stroke saver booklet is a must if you haven't played the course before. Be sure to take lots of balls! Also make sure you have a bit of time to take in all the spectacular views.

Would never return. Better resorts in fiji and vanuatu. Needs a good clean in the bathrooms and the cost of everything is far too expensive. The food is really good particuarlly the asian restaurant. The staff are really great and the manager Marcus was wonderful.

We ate here twice on a recent trip to Hamilton Island and both times the service and food were excellent, the macaroons for dessert are to die for. Can't wait to go back

interesting course, but very unforgiving. Some holes not as well thought out as others, and there is no finding a ball in the rough at all. The par 3s are the real stars here. Staff are excellent, with a drinks and food cart touring the course a highlight. Fun for a few days.

A short ride by boat..It was a very nice and challenging golf course. It had beautiful vistas. After the round, a lunch at their restaurant is a must.
