DOONBEG HOTEL & GOLF LINKS 4*
Doonbeg is Greg Norman's only creation in the UK and Ireland, and like many of his projects around the world, it is absolutely mind-blowing. The Great White Shark has created the Links Course by utilising the incredible dunes that characterise the majestic site along the coast.
Norman was assisted by a team of consultants whose past projects include Kiawah Island, South Carolina, and Doonbeg does echo the rugged charm of its trans-Atlantic neighbour. A round at Doonbeg is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, owing to the numerous unforgettable challenges.
The focal point of the entire course is the astonishing 15th, which is built into the highest dunes on the site; landing the ball at the front edge of the 150-foot deep funnel-shaped green and wondering if it will stop before running off the back into no man's land is one of the most exhilarating shots in world golf.
For serious golfers, Doonbeg is as exciting a links course as you can find on a golf tour, and is a real credit to Greg Norman.
