cav4pa Posted February 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi - We are considering a round of golf at Port Royal when we are in port in June. Has anyone played there? What is the easiest way to get to and from the course? Thanks for your help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailBadtheSinner Posted February 21, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Haven't played there, but the easiest way to get there and back is a taxi. SBtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyette Posted March 3, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Actually the only way is taxi as you can't take your clubs on the bus. We played there twice, friendly staff, fairly challenging & the second time it was very busy! An early tee time might be the way to go.

Are there any other courses that folks have played that you would recommend? Thanks for your help! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums I have not played it but the course at Fairmont Princess is well regarded. Also it would be the next closest golf course to the Dockyard. http://www.fairmont.com/southampton-bermuda/golf/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles4515 Posted March 5, 2018 #8 Share Posted March 5, 2018 It's a 2700 yard par three course, not a full championship-caliber course. It has great water views though. What course would you recommend as an alternative? Mid-Ocean or Tuckers Point? They are difficult courses and located on the other end of the island. Also may not be easy to get in to play at either.

Belmont Hills isn't much further than the Southampton Princess. http://www.newsteadbelmonthills.com/en/Belmont-Hills-Golf-Course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are difficult courses and located on the other end of the island. Also may not be easy to get in to play at either. Mid Ocean is very difficult to get on. Several private clubs in the US have reciprocal arrangement with them which allow access. If you have a room at Rosewood they can arrange a tee time at peak times. The public can call ahead on select days mid week for tee times later in the day at their discretion, usually around $250 a round per person. Tee time for a non member won’t give you access to their facilities beyond golf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t get mentioned much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
