Airport Golf
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Airport Golf a good option for a layover round, and what should I expect?
Absolutely, it's perfect for that. We recommend booking a tee time online as soon as you land, especially if you're tight on time, and plan for about 3 hours for 18 holes. You'll find the course surprisingly well-maintained for its convenience, offering a solid, quick game without the fuss.
What's the course like at Airport Golf - is it just a flat, easy track?
Don't let the name fool you into thinking it's a pushover; while generally flat, the course often plays longer than its yardage due to the prevailing crosswinds from the open airport surroundings. You'll need to manage your ball flight carefully, especially on the back nine where the wind really picks up. We found the greens surprisingly tricky, with subtle breaks that demand attention.
How does Airport Golf compare in terms of cost and value for money?
This course is a fantastic value, especially if you're looking for an affordable round without sacrificing playability. Expect green fees to be significantly lower than resort courses in the region, often around $40-60 for 18 holes with a cart, making it an excellent option for budget-conscious golfers. We always recommend checking their website for twilight rates - they're often a steal.
When's the best time to play Airport Golf, and are there any unique aspects to the experience?
We love playing early mornings here, especially during the shoulder seasons (spring and fall) when the air is crisp and the course is less crowded. The unique aspect is definitely the occasional low-flying aircraft overhead - it's a quirky backdrop that adds a memorable, if sometimes noisy, element to your round. Just be prepared for a brief pause in your swing now and then.
What are the facilities like at Airport Golf, and is there anything to do after a round?
The clubhouse is modest but functional, offering a pro shop with essentials and a snack bar for a quick bite and a drink. Don't expect a gourmet meal, but their hot dogs are surprisingly good after a round. We recommend grabbing a drink on their small patio - it's a great spot to watch planes take off and land, adding to the unique airport vibe.
