Vacations centered around golf are more popular than ever. A golf vacation offers the perfect blend of relaxation, connection, and the thrill of the game—all in a beautiful setting. But with so many iconic courses around the world, narrowing down your next destination can be overwhelming.
These five questions will help you shape the perfect golf vacation:
1. Who’s going?
Is this a couples’ getaway? A golf trip with friends? Or a family vacation with golf as one of the highlights? Your group will help guide the destination, lodging, and overall vibe. Some resorts are perfect for romance, while others offer a social scene for golf buddies looking to unwind after a day on the course.
2. What else do you want to do?
After a full 18 holes, do you prefer a deep-tissue massage, a local pub, or a sunset sail? The best golf vacations build in time for the off-course experiences that make your trip even more memorable.
3. Where do you want to play during your golf vacation?
Are you dreaming of the links in Scotland? Desert landscapes in Arizona? Ocean views in the Caribbean? Knowing the setting you want can help narrow down your list and shape your itinerary.
4. When do you want to go?
Your travel season can affect everything from tee time availability to resort rates. Want to follow a PGA Tour stop? Escape winter? Or catch shoulder-season pricing? The timing of your golf vacation matters more than you might think.
5. What’s your budget for the?
A well-planned golf vacation considers more than just course fees. Flights, hotels, club rentals or shipping, caddies, meals, and transportation all factor in. Start with a total budget or build around a dream course—either way, having clear expectations helps.
