Three features of golf design are combined on
this Lay Out:
1. Classic design, broad roads bordered by trees, wide and scarcely
protected greens.
2. Challenging or Target Golf design, modern style with narrow roads and
heavily protected greens surrounded by sand traps and lakes. The Varadero
Golf Course has several salt-water lakes that connect directly with the
sea, a feature that makes it almost unique worldwide.
3. Links design, with holes located alongside the sea following the
shoreline, introducing the ocean as another obstacle in the game.
Due to its configuration, the course is divided into two distinct areas. A
first round from holes one to nine, that can be considered slightly easier,
and a second round, from holes 10 to 18, where holes 11, 15. 16. 17 and 18
stand out for their individual complexity. This allows golf players to
combine all the technical elements of the game with the beauty,
peacefulness and quiet of the surroundings. Our Golf Club continues
expanding its most ambitious golf facilities projects by opening the first
golf academy operated by PGA professionals and instructors from the Cuban
Golf Federation.
Practice areas (300 meters for long games, 2 putting greens, 1 shipping
green, 2 bunkers) are structured to allow for instruction to be imparted
indoors, including the use of accessories, golf clubs and practice balls.

secrets attend one-hour sessions that start at 9:00 a.m. with a maximum of
four students per instructor.
The Golf Academy has designed various programs following international
sports guidelines, rules and ethics, open to all professionals and
students who wish to enjoy this fascinating game amidst breathtaking
beaches and our wonderful culture.
The Club House of the Varadero Golf Club has a golf players´ reception at
the Caddie House, also including a Pro Shop and Snack Bar.
