What unique challenges or features should I expect from the "Salinas" aspect of the course design?
The course truly embraces its coastal setting, with several holes playing alongside or over natural salt lakes and volcanic rock formations. You'll need to be precise with your approach shots to avoid the water hazards and the sometimes-tricky lies around these natural areas.

We think the green fee here offers excellent value, especially considering the course's immaculate condition and unique design. While not the cheapest on the islands, you're paying for a well-maintained, engaging round that feels distinct from many resort courses.
Is there a particular hole at Salinas de Antigua that stands out or offers a signature experience?
Absolutely, the par-3 17th is a real stunner and a memorable challenge. It plays over a dramatic ravine towards a green protected by water and bunkers, demanding a confident tee shot with the ocean breeze often in play.
Is Golf Club Salinas de Antigua suitable for all skill levels, or is it particularly challenging for high handicappers?
