The Dalaman Golf Club

Designed by Andrew Craven of International Design Group, Dalaman Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 championship course shaped around the natural landscape.

Two loops of nine return to an elevated clubhouse, with water, sand and elevation changes creating plenty of variety along the way.

Different tee options make the course accessible to a broad range of golfers, while lower handicappers will need to think carefully about positioning and course management.

The Course

Dunes, pine forests, marshland and lakes give Dalaman Golf Club its distinctive character.

Water and strategically placed bunkers reward careful course management, while changes in elevation keep things interesting from tee to green.

The course uses Sea Dwarf Paspalum grass, well-suited to its coastal setting, while existing vegetation has been retained wherever possible as part of the course’s nature-led design.

Signature Hole

The par-5 15th looks set to be the hole everyone talks about afterwards. There’s a dramatic 25-metre drop from tee to fairway, with a protected nature reserve on one side and a lake on the other.

It’s a spectacular-looking hole, but one that rewards good positioning rather than simply reaching for the driver.

Practice Facilities

Warm up on the driving range or spend some time on the putting and chipping greens before your round. There’s also a Golf Academy offering coaching for different abilities.

Golf carts, trolleys and rental clubs are available, with locker rooms, showers, bag storage and club-cleaning facilities at the clubhouse.

Where to Stay

The five-star Hilton Dalaman Sarigerme Resort & Golf is on site, with a complimentary shuttle taking you to and from the golf club.

The all-inclusive resort sits between the Dalaman River and the sea, with a long private beach, 10 outdoor pools, an aquapark, Elysion Spa and an excellent choice of restaurants and bars.

It’s a particularly good option if you’re travelling with non-golfers or family.

When to Play

Spring and autumn are ideal for golf in Dalaman, with warm weather and more comfortable playing temperatures than the height of summer.

April to June and September to October are particularly good choices, while July and August suit those looking to combine golf with plenty of pool and beach time.

Getting There

Dalaman Golf Club is just 20 kilometres from Dalaman International Airport, so you can be at the resort soon after landing.

Direct seasonal flights operate from a number of UK airports, making Dalaman an easy choice for both a full golf holiday and a shorter break.
