This is a good 4 star golf course. Definitely not comparable to Pebble Beach, Bandon Dunes or other 5 star golf courses.
The course is fairly short at 6300 yards from the tips but the elevation changes and omnipresent water make the course challenging. I played the desert and canyon courses on my stay at the Phoenician.
The dramatic tee boxes on several of the par 3's are magnificent. The yardage may read 160 + but the tee box is so elevated that the hole only plays 90 yards.
I like this course and would play it again when staying at the Phoenician resort.
