Ballybunion Golf Club

The best of the best. I have been lucky enough to play most of the great courses in the Republic of Ireland and for me Ballybunion is the best of them all. The course has amazing views, great elevation changes and some of the best green complexes anywhere. The staff there is kind and courteous, which you don't always get at a premier course and I have heard that they have upgraded the practice facility since I was last there. Ballybunion in pure class and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to play a bucket list course.

It’s hard to describe the size of the dunes. They are magnificent. The course is big but playable. Beautiful scenery. Wonderful golf holes. For my money, on the shortlist for greatest course in the world. A personal favorite.

Loved this course—it was the toughest of the five we played, but I truly appreciated the entire experience provided by the course staff. From the ball marker and score card holder given upon arrival to the excellent practice facilities, pro shop, and the course itself, everything was top-notch. This is a special experience, and they make sure you know it.

A beautiful course with very courteous staff. We took one fore-caddy, Paddy, who added a great deal to our enjoyment. The course is very difficult; stay in the fairways at all costs.

An exceptional experience from clubhouse staff to the caddies. An incredible test on an immaculate course with breathtaking views throughout. New favorite course in the Old Course!

Fantastic experience in a golf course that is a natural wonder. Greet staff and caddies.

Ballybunion did not disappoint! The course was in fantastic shape and the staff was very friendly. My caddie Aidan helped me quite a bit on my round and I loved every minute of this hallowed place. Every hole was unique and special, but holes 15-18 were one of the best finishes I think you will find anywhere in golf. Worth every penny!

Great classic golf course along the Atlantic. Hilly dunes, elevated greens and winds makes it a worthy challenge for any golfer. It's a hard course best played by players with HCP of less than 18. Restaurant food is not as good as the course.
