Sunspree golf - do it in an exotic way
Holiday Inn SunSpree® Resort Montego Bay is close to some of the best golf courses on the island, such as Half Moon Golf Course, Cinnamon Hill Golf Course, The White Witch Golf Course, Iron Shore Golf Course, and further west, the Tryall Golf Course. Situated beside the Coral Sea, the Half Moon Bay Golf Club is framed by mountains, marina, beach and island views, and the clubhouse is directly across the road from the Resort. The 18 hole 5129 metre par 70 golf course has an interesting mix of holes and is a challenge for the competent golfer whilst not being intimidating for the social golfer. The well stocked Pro Shop is open daily for all your golf needs. Lessons with PGA Golf Pro are available. Relax and enjoy a drink and snack at the Club House after your game of golf. Together with Tryall, Half Moon and the world acclaimed White Witch, Cinnamon Hill completes a four course line-up of outstanding courses ? perhaps unmatched in the islands. What's more, 3 of the courses are within 10 minutes of each other and Tryall is only 30 minutes away, at most. The opening hole is now a straight-away par 5, featuring bunkers and deep grasses left and a tree line with out of bounds right. It is a wonderful way to begin. The restructuring of the first hole now allows for a short par three, which leads from the first green to the third tee. This occupies turf that was once the approach to the first green. A huge bunker on the left encourages a shot to the right center here. The third is nearly identical to the old layout, playing uphill with a sharp dogleg right on the approach. Long hitters can tempt fate by bending a shot over the edge of the tree line on the right. Number four has been "cleaned up" considerably , and is now one of the prettiest par threes of the course. You will hit from an elevated tee, over water, to a green that is quite undulating. There is a lot of bail out room to the right. The fifth occupies land that was formerly the driving range of the old course. This long par four plays right to the beautiful blue Caribbean. After passing through the sugar mill plantation ruins, you will find the 18th almost exactly as it was before. This formidable par five can be reached in two by adventurous long hitters who cut the corner by driving one over the tree on the left. Most likely you will lay-up before the ravine that is precariously located just a wedge away from the elevated putting surface. This is a beautiful and challenging "risk/reward" finishing hole. The stone wall fronting the green helps to make this one of the prettiest holes on the course.
