Eléa Estate Golf Club: located at the heart of the prestigious Eléa Estate, this challenging and relatively open Nick Faldo design incorporates numerous natural features. Although set a few kilometres inland from the coast, there are many stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea to enjoy from the course.
The layout weaves its way through outcrops of weathered limestone, with a liberal scattering of mature carob and olive trees along the way. There's also swathes of colourful native ‘garrigue’ flora (Mediterranean shrubs and scrub), which offer a distinctly Mediterranean feel to proceedings.
Faldo's excellent layout, coupled with meticulous attention to presentation and detail, ensures Eléa offers one of the best, if not the best, golf experience in Cyprus. This tree-lined and open parkland layout is home to a plentiful array of stylish bunkering, with water hazards playing only a minor role. Certainly a course to test your all-round game with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
