Reserve Conchal Golf Community - A Retiree's Perfect Option

Conchal reservation (s) from golf is located in Guanaste, near Diriá city and near main attractions such as playa Flamingo, tamarind and coconut beach. This private golf course is part of the Reserva Conchal resort which houses the Paradisus Playa Conchal - resort which should be a guest play this course.

This is one of my favorites in Costa Rica courses. The service is excellent, Carlos Rojas the head Pro will be treated as a King. The staff is well trained, Cortés and out of their way to make a great round of golf. Conchal golf reservation is a design of Robert Trent Jones II which has a mixture of easy holes and harsh. What makes it special to this course is a mixture of landscapes of the tropical jungle and ocean.

My favorite hole is a hole 17 - a pair of mammoth courtyard 210 3 whose elevated tee box offers a spectacular view of the Playa Conchal and mountains in the back. That only 'good' of-you need to hit a shot 200 yards on water wind if you are playing back tees. (Don't worry, there is a choice of 150 yards for us mortals).

My nemesis is hole 10. This pair of bobsleigh 4 seems easy but I was end up in the OB - left in spite of teed off with one iron! Then remain with a long iron which is protected by a deep bunker on the left, the water on the left, out of bounds on the left - green guess where beat her, left. I recommend playing early in the morning as a 6 in the morning tee to avoid heat at 1200 hours.

If don't mind it the heat, opt for all packages that deliver can play. Personally I am one round, run to the type of person pool bar.

If looking for living in Guanacaste, Reserva Conchal should be at the top of the list. It is a mature development with real golf course than can be played today. It is also part of a precious resource and will always have things to do there. Alternative to Reserva Conchal Golf are Hacienda Pinilla Tamarindo area.
