I am an international golfers, that have played almost all over the world -- both east and west -- from ASIA, ( almost all countries from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Burma ); Scotland, England, Spain,; some states in U.S.A., and Mexico. So, my assessment might be very strict.
I played with my son,- 9 years old, who took up golf about a few months ago, who could and dared to tee-off from the first tee on top of the hill.
Overall, it has a very interesting layout for the land area on this island. The inclination of each hole could have been raised in certain landing area to make it more challenging, for the par-4s; the greens, although undulating with the hilly contour, the grass could have been kept better condition.
We were lucky to play on the morning of Nov. 27, the morning after the THANKSGVIING DAY, so it was a bit easy, and relaxed, as we noticed on the other times, and days, it was crowded with 2 -3 groups of players waiting at each tee-box.
We enjoyed our game of 9 holes, for the weather was superb - cool and nice and pleasant.

I gave five out of the six stars for this course:-
1. length and contour of lay-out following the mountainous terrain very well;
2. enough hazards of stream and creeks and rough to trap bad shots, and rewards a good play;
3. bunkers are large and deep, also of different level following the slops;
4. the fairways are never flat, rolling and uneven in most lies;
5. the green are excellent condition and laid out well, so that it is very difficult to get one put for me- the first timer;
6. the only draw-back for me, as I did not scored well, was because it is very chilly with the cold wind, which I am not used to. Although I have been in U.S.A., for many years, I am not used to the cold air, to play golf as in Asian countries.
