Akenza Golf Course has great potential and will likely be amazing in three to four years once it’s had time to mature. It’s still very new, and that definitely shows. There were no bins anywhere on the course, they had no drinks buggy and the clubhouse does not sell alcohol. The round was extremely slow, over 5 hours 15 mins. The greens were in good condition, but they clearly need more water as everything just bounces off. Overall, I would go back—but probably not for another two to three years, once the course has had time to settle and improve.
Carved from the earth at the foot of the magnificent Atlas Mountains, Akenza Golf Club offers more than just a round of golf, it presents a dramatic showdown between player and nature. This is a course that strips the game back to its most thrilling elements.
Forget manicured parkland this is a raw and rewarding desert experience where you feel the vastness of the landscape with every swing. Prepare for a test of courage and skill that will live long in your memory long after the final putt has dropped.
If you seek a golfing experience that is raw, authentic and truly unforgettable then Akenza is for you. It’s a course that doesn't just test your game but leaves a lasting impression. Step up to the challenge, embrace the adventure and discover one of Marrakech's most exhilarating golfing destinations.
