Ever dreamed of a golf trip with all of your friends where you can get away and enjoy a slice of luxury? Maybe you are hoping for beautiful weather, amazing courses or enjoying company with your friends during rounds and at your resort? Planning it yourself can be stressful though, especially when organising for multiple people, but it doesn’t need to be. Here at Chaka Travel, we curate luxury golf holidays that can make your group’s ideal trip feel effortless and fun. Here are our top tips to ensure your next golf trip with friends is truly brilliant.
Choose Your Perfect Destination
Not all golf holidays are created equally or to the same quality. If you are looking for something a little more unique it’s a great idea to think outside of usual golf spots. Consider the Algarve, Portugal for warm weather and coastal courses or Scotland for a legendary links challenge.
Maybe your group would prefer the serene beauty of St Andrews or the modern style of Spain’s Costa del Sol. The key is to match the destination to your group’s skill level and vibe. If you have a mix of beginners and low handicap players in your group opt for courses with more simple layouts and great practice facilities. If you are looking for pure luxury, choose resorts where the clubhouse can also be your social space. The right location really does set the whole tone for your holiday.
Book Tee Times Early
Popular golf courses book up months ahead, especially for groups or large numbers. So please don’t leave it to the last minute. Here at Chaka Travel we have direct relationships with top resorts and courses around the world so that we can book in your preferred times. We can even handle the tricky parts such as coordinating group play or ensuring you get the best start time. Imagine arriving on your break and having your tee time confirmed without the need for last minute calls.
Book Accommodation That Makes Your Trip Special
Your hotel isn’t just about booking a room to sleep in, it’s where you will unwind after a golf round, share memories over dinner and recharge. Choose accommodation that feels like a home away from home with a touch of luxury with spacious suites, private terraces, on site dining and maybe even a spa. We help our clients by handpicking properties where the views, service and amenities live up to your golfing adventure.
Add Extra Luxuries
A brilliant golf trip with friends has extras that make it really unforgettable. Here are some ideas to make it super special:
- Arrange a private caddy for that extra bit of expert advice
- Book a pre round breakfast in the clubhouse
- Organise a sunset cocktail hour overlooking the course
- Plan professional lessons or a tour guide
- Get off the course too, planning non golf activities
These touches show your friends that you have thought of everything, making a good trip into something very special.
Keep Things Simple For Everyone
The goal is stress free fun for everyone in your group. Here are some planning tips to help you along the way:
- Avoid complicated itineraries
- Add in relaxed downtime
- Let the golf be the main event
- Don’t forget the simple joy of being together with your friends
