JAMAICA – TRYALL CLUB
Located 12-miles from Montego Bay,
the Tryall Club is a 6,772-yard Ralph
Plummer beauty built in 1960 and
features spectacular ocean panoramas
and exotic tree-lined fairways, with nine
level holes by the sea and nine rolling
holes in the hills.
It has hosted over a dozen
international competitions including
the prestigious Johnnie Walker World
Championship and Shell’s Wonderful
World of Golf.
Look out for the tee shot through the
stone pillars of an historic aqueduct,
part of a former sugar plantation and
the par-3 4th, with a shot over Flint River
to a devilish putting surface.

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC – CASA DE CAMPO
A tempting-trio of Pete Dye-designed courses awaits golfers staying at Casa
de Campo - one of the Caribbean’s most luxurious resorts. In the world’s
top 100 courses, Dye’s masterpiece, Teeth of the Dog, skirts a jagged, rocky
coastline so close you can feel the salt spray.
Inland lies the designer’s lake-studded Links Course, and his third track,
Dye Fore is a 7,600-yard monster that marches along a plateau perched 493-
feet above the mesmerizing Chavron River.
Casa de Campo is so extensive that guests are provided with a map and
golf cart to help them get around. Besides the golf, there’s tennis, a marina,
charter fishing and the remarkable Altos de Chavron, an exact recreation of
a 15th-century Mediterranean village complete with cobbled streets and a
collection of fine restaurants.
ANGUILLA - CUISINART GOLF CLUB
The CuisinArt Golf Resort and Spa, a member of The Leading Hotels
of the World, offers one of the Caribbean’s best golf experiences in the
form of the CuisinArt Golf Club, a Greg Norman Signature Design 18-Hole
Championship Course with breathtaking views and challenging, dramatic
holes.
Players are greeted by a spectacular view of St. Maarten and the Caribbean
Sea at the tee box of the 384-yard starting hole. The overwhelming visual
appeal continues with holes 2 and 10 sharing a 16,000-square-foot green that
rests along the Anguilla Channel.
Large sea grape trees on the left and the Merrywing pond on the right
frame the perilous drive on the 423-yard 16th hole that plays into the trade
winds and finishes with an elevated green surrounded by water and protected
by deep bunkers. The narrowing fairway on the 18th hole ascends 40-feet to a
narrow green carved out of the native plantings.
