Royal St. Kitts Golf Club

Must play course for any golfer visiting St. Kitts. I must admit the fairways are not in the best condition & the greens are incredibly slow & spongy but the views on the finishing 6 holes are just unbelievable & completely make up for any shortcomings of old rental clubs or course conditions.

Everyone at the golf course is super nice, and the Marriott was nice to drive me over from the resort on a golf cart. Overall, the layout and visual aesthetic of the golf course are incredible. I have played a lot of golf in my life and appreciate the design and challenge of this course and facility. The views of the ocean, mountains, and homes are awesome. Certainly, the course has seen better days. It needs quite a bit of money but you can tell they are doing the best they can to keep it maintained as best as possible. I agree with other reviews that the high rough (it’s actually just completely overgrown) can be frustrating as it’s easy to lose balls. The greens are slow, but true and in decent shape all things considered. For $165 id say it’s a bit high for the overall experience given the current condition of the club, but I’d like to see this course generate as much $ and turn the conditions around. It has potential to be one of the best golf courses in the world in my opinion. Would recommend playing but keep your expectations low as for course conditions and just try to enjoy the surroundings and keep the ball in the fairway :)

Quality Caribbean golf course at a reasonable price ($100 USD). Greens are in excellent condition for a Caribbean course (yes folks, they are longer and slower than we're use to in the U.S but that's how it has to be in order for them not to lose them to the harsh conditions). You get an absolute true roll out of them you just have to dial in your speed. Fun course with some great views and friendly staff.

I recently played at Royal St. Kitts Golf Club during a December visit on a cruise. While the location is absolutely beautiful, the course itself was disappointing for the $200 price tag. The grass was not mowed properly, and it was extremely difficult to find balls even when they were just slightly off the fairway—or sometimes even on the fairway. This made the experience frustrating, as I lost a lot of balls that were not even out of bounds. The greens were rough on many holes, and the overall course maintenance left a lot to be desired. The rental clubs were in bad shape, which didn’t help the experience. Adding to that, there were no cart girls for refreshments, and when we stopped at the turn, the 'bar' was unattended, and we had to wait forever for someone to serve us. This wasn’t during a low season for the area, so I was surprised by how empty the course was and the lack of staff. I assume the lack of players and upkeep reflects deeper financial struggles, which is unfortunate given the potential of the location. All in all, I did enjoy the round because the setting was so beautiful, but it was not worth $200. For what we got, I’d say $100 would have been more reasonable. I hope the course gets the investment it needs because with better maintenance and staffing, it could be a fantastic place to play. Right now, it feels like a missed opportunity.

Played March 19, 2025. The ladies in the pro shop were probably the most helpful of any course I have played. Max, the starter and cart guy was so easy to work with. The greens were exceptional and the fairways and rough were kept at a length that made every shot playable. The photos show why this place far exceeded my expectations. 5 stars!

This course has the potential to be so much better! A little expensive for the course quality. Went in Feb and the greens are shaggy and run about a 5-6. Fairways are patchy and the rough/weeds… just don’t go in it. The layout is nice and the views are spectacular. 200$ for 18 and club rental is worth it if you plan on playing it once. Club house staff was a little cold and the club house looked abandoned. Bring your own drinks as the cafe may be closed. Cart guy was friendly and appreciated our visiting. Plan on lift and place. Overall if you love to golf, it is worth a one time visit.

Played RSK’ golf course several times in October. A beautiful layout with great staff and golf pro. The negative issue is the greens are extremely slow. Maybe a six on the stimpmeter on a day when they have just been mowed. Please speed them up. This could be a premier golf course with more attention to the greens! Hope this issue is seriously considered.

Nice fun course. Lady who works reception and takes care of golf carts hates her life and the players equal amount. We were the only players that day that gives them income and she must have been the rudest person I have ever met on a golf course. She should never be allowed to work in a service profession. Having that person work there is alone enough to not want to come back.
