Players of all abilities will be challenged on the 18-hole, 6,500 yard tropical course masterfully designed by golf legend Rees Jones. The course is home to the famous "Mangrove Hole," a 143 yard par 3 that is played over a field of thickly intertwined tropical mangroves.

Key West beaches

Beach paradise

Key West isn't your classic Caribbean beach destination, where thousands upon thousands of visitors crowd cabanas and jockey for space on the sand. Instead, Key West beaches offer a certain aura of cozy exclusivity. Spending a day on a Key West beach with the sand, water, and sun as company is a relaxing and restorative experience: Soak it up.
