Golf Club San Martín

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Golf Club San Martín?

We always recommend targeting the Argentinian spring, from September to November, or the autumn months, March through May. You'll find ideal temperatures for golf, and the course is typically in fantastic shape, avoiding the intense summer heat and the cooler, sometimes damp, winter. We particularly love late spring when the jacaranda trees around the property are in full bloom.

What's the biggest challenge or unique feature golfers should expect at San Martín?

San Martín truly tests your short game, especially around its subtly contoured greens that demand precision. Many holes feature strategic bunkering and mature trees that require thoughtful approach shots, so don't expect easy pars if your wedges aren't dialed in. We found the back nine particularly engaging with its clever doglegs and slight elevation changes.

How easy is it to get to Golf Club San Martín from Buenos Aires, and is it worth the trip?

San Martín is conveniently located just outside Buenos Aires, making it an easy day trip or a perfect first stop if you're heading further afield in Argentina. A quick 45-minute drive from the city center will get you there, and yes, it's absolutely worth the short journey for a taste of classic Argentinian parkland golf. We always recommend arranging a private transfer for a hassle-free experience.

What can I expect regarding green fees and overall value at Golf Club San Martín?

Green fees at San Martín are quite reasonable for a course of its caliber, typically falling into the mid-range for Argentina's top clubs. You're getting excellent value for a meticulously maintained course with a rich history and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. We always feel it's a worthwhile investment for a memorable round of golf.

What's the atmosphere like at the clubhouse and what amenities are available for visitors?

The clubhouse at San Martín has a charming, old-world feel-it's not overly flashy, but incredibly comfortable and welcoming to all. You'll find a well-stocked pro shop and a fantastic restaurant serving classic Argentinian fare, perfect for a post-round steak and Malbec. We always linger on the terrace, soaking in the views and the friendly local chatter.
