I Recommend This Course
Course was very good condition as I played it a couple of months ago and it wasn’t at all. Looks like they are getting it back in shape for the “season” fun track recommend any tie you’re in the desert. As always staff is great.

Underwhelming
First time playing this course. Thank goodness we got a GolfNow “hot deal” as we would have been extremely disappointed if we had paid normal prices. Course was quite brown but biggest issue was layout and no signage to tell us where to go.
Played Greg Norman last week and that course was in way better condition and therefore way better value.

Nice round
Played the Blue tees as a 10HC, did not feel long at all until 18. Not as dramatic as the Stadium course but a solid layout, scenic views. Could mostly hold approach shots from 130 or more and the greens were true, with average speed and no crazy breaks (just 31 puts on the day). Stay on the fairways and pars will be there. Lots of OB right and left with all the villas lining the fairways. Driving/chipping range is first class.

Great course - but recently sanded and punched greens?
Really enjoy the layout & challenge of this course. Down side was at booking (a month ago), we were not informed that the greens would be punched & sanded a week prior. Poor communication IMO, as putting was compromised yet people were paying full rack rate (fortunately we found a relative deal through GOLFNOW)

The course was in good shape but the greens had been punched and no-one told us.
The greens were slow and not very puttable

Impeccable
Beautiful course. Ten out of ten from the moment we arrived to departure. Appreciated all the bottled water as it was hot. Nice and easy 4 hr round. Stay out of the green side bunkers and you can score well.
