Turkey Property | Golf in Turkey
Dave Thomas, the world famous architect, has masterfully created the ultimate golfing experience. Nobilis Golf Resort has been created within the natural pine forest that borders the Acisu River in Belek on the south coast of Turkey.
The opening three par four holes offer wide fairways but to make full use of these fairways accuracy is of prime importance with your tee shots. The 4th a medium length par three calls for spot on club selection, with a par here nice to mark your scorecard. As you play the next few holes along the Acisu River you arrive at the relatively short 7th, safety and position off this tee will set you up with a chance of having a short iron to this well protected green that allows you no margin of error. Water and two greenside bunkers awaiting anything other than an accurately hit shot.
We now turn back to the clubhouse with an excellent three shot par five which calls for your third shot to be played over one of the four lakes that help irrigate and keep the course in excellent condition. On your walk past the clubhouse prepare yourself for the Nobilis signature hole and believe us it is difficult to pick one. The 10th par four (374m), your tee shot needs to be positioned between the bunker on the left and water hazard on the right hand side of the fairway, decision time the green lies over the far section of the water hazard with the stream on the right meandering down to the lake ready to catch any wayward shot, to be on this green in two shots certainly is a cause for celebration and convert two more puts to your par has made many a happy golfer. The course heads out towards the Acisu River and you play a series of holes along the river. A superb and scenic course to play golf in Turkey.
On your arrival at the 16th hopefully with your score still intact get your best shot ready, this one shot hole calls for all the qualities that those hours on the practice ground have prepared you for club selection, accuracy and courage you will certainly set yourself up for a rewarding last two holes if you walk the 17th tee having marked a three on your scorecard. The beautiful Roman style clubhouse awaits you a short pitch away from the 18th green, where you can reminisce of what should have been or could have been when playing golf in Turkey at the Nobillis club.
