Located just seven minutes from downtown Hamilton, off the North Shore of Devonshire, Ocean View Golf Club is easily the closest golf course to Bermuda's capital city. The blue Atlantic waters and gentle ocean breezes offer scenic views and create a tranquil atmosphere, but do not underestimate this nine-hole course as it offers a fair amount of challenge. Club selection is crucial due to the elevation changes of the terrain and the occasional strong winds. Although it is an executive length course, there are 18 tee positions to enable play on a second round of holes. Ocean View Golf Club has garnered a following among locals, which in turn has also made it a popular destination for visitors.

"Fun course but not a classic"

Ocean View is a 9 hole course you play off different tees second time round if you want to play 18. The tees second time round are just further back.
The holes are undulating with a few blind shots, it's actually a reasonable layout, with one or two fairly tight holes.
The condition of the course is mediocre, the greens and fairways have seen better days but are playable. The bunkers are good but unfortunately the plentiful rakes are rarely used.
For $40 It is fair value, when put in comparison with other courses on the Island. By the way, the ocean view is just from the first tee.
If your expectations are not too high and you don't take it too seriously, you'll undoubtedly have fun.

"Nine-hole Challenge"

As public courses go, this was a challenging, nine-hole layout. The course was hilly, with several blind tee shots, but the slope recognized that. The ninth holes is a very beautiful par-3 - very photogenic. The pro gave us a discount on our greens fees because there was a tournament going on, and GolfNow should have blocked our tee time. Then, while we were playing, the taxis went on strike in Bermuda! The assistant manager was nice enough to give us a ride back to our hotel. Great customer service! The bar was only operating sporadically, and the main rest rooms were out of order. However, the golf course was fine, and clearly worth the price.

Ocean View is a great and inexpensive way to get out on the course while in Bermuda. It does need some TLC and the bunkers are in relatively poor condition, but for the price, the pace of play and the beauty, this course is worth it. I booked using golfnow.com and was able to play 18 with a cart for less than $40. Generally the course is not very busy, so I played around in 2 hours 15 minutes. It is fairly short so the lower handicap player will definitely want to play the back tees for a little added distance. Keep in mind there are only 9 holes, so you go around twice to play 18. I usually play the white tees on the front and blues on the back.

Played whilst I was on a cruise, the cruise ship wanted $160 for the day but I Got a great deal through GolfNow and paid $75 for 18 holes, buggy and rental clubs. If the greens had been better it would have been a fantastic day. Managed to email ahead and reserved set of TM stiff shaft clubs that were pristine. Enjoyed the layout of the course even playing from two different sets of tees to make it an 18 hole course was ok. All of the staff were very friendly and very helpful. The only moan I would have is the greens had been hollow tined and sanded a couple of days before and I wasn't made aware of this either by GolfNow or Ocean View.

"Not made to feel welcome"

The greens are of the poorest 'pay & play' variety. Local players do not welcome tourists - a four ball raced past us to the tee, saying as they teed off that there was another four ball in front so it made no difference! We were a two ball and actually it did because any other four ball was out of site and holes ahead. Eventually we were called through on the 12th (3rd hole second time around) when all four in front of us were looking for balls. Not a course I would recommend.

Great course for the value in Bermuda. Being able to do 9 holes was nice, as we had limited time to play as we had a lot planned in a short time, as we were on a cruise. The views from the holes were spectacular and the best feature in my mind. The staff was awesome, they were very accommodating.

Only a 9 hole course but the price is right for Bermuda-$50 for 18 holes with cart. Most of the others in Bermuda are $200 plus. The course is in good shape. Balls hold on the green but the speed is on the slow side. The bunkers are in need for more sand. Cab ride is about $100 round trip from cruise ship. Worth it to get your fix in good time.

The course itself is extremely pretty and a great pleasure to play. Sadly, the greens were close to 'winter greens' quality. Lumpy and thick grass on the greens ruined the experience. With a small investment this course could be up to the standard that we should expect in Bermuda. It has the potential to be much much better.
