The Ocean Course at Papagayo: An Arnold Palmer Signature Experience

Widely considered one of the most breathtaking and environmentally conscious golf courses in the world, the Ocean Course at Peninsula Papagayo offers a championship-level experience set against an extraordinary natural backdrop. Ranked among Golf Digest’s Top 100 Courses Outside the United States, this private 18-hole, par-72 Arnold Palmer Signature course is a must-play for any golf enthusiast.

Winding across 125 acres of ancient lava flow, the course navigates old-growth forests, coastal cliffs, and lush valleys, offering panoramic vistas on 14 holes and the kind of immersive beauty that stirs the senses. Wide fairways, dramatic elevation changes, and expansive greens create a fair yet challenging test for players of all levels—whether you're a seasoned golfer or just starting out.

This eco-conscious masterpiece is a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary, thoughtfully designed to preserve and celebrate the surrounding biodiversity. Expect to be joined by white-faced monkeys, over 100 species of tropical birds, and a living botanical garden of native flora on every hole.

Located just minutes from Villa Enoki, the Ocean Course also features a driving range, short game practice areas, and private PGA instruction, making it a perfect setting to sharpen your game or simply enjoy a leisurely round in a spectacular setting.
