Well-established UK golf architects
Hawtree & Sons were contracted to plan this modification
and design work which has culminated in the creation
of the new, exciting 18-hole Oceanico Millennium Golf Course.
Refurbishment to the existing nine holes commenced in
May 1999 and included the complete rebuilding of the
tees, greens and bunkers. Changes were made to the layout
or structure of the old nine holes, but several new
design features were incorporated with a view to simplifying
the strategy of the course and in order to make it more
golfer-friendly.
This applies especially to holes 8 and 9, the only ones
on this loop with water hazards. Also, many of the bunkers
have been re-shaped and the smaller greens expanded.
This renovated North course has been joined together
with the new 9-hole loop to offer a layout of different
character, style and playing quality to the remaining
Laguna Course.
The two nines of the Oceanico Millennium Course complement each
other handsomely and have strong traits of Martin Hawtree's
traditional architectural style.
The new nine holes are located west of the clubhouse
which has also been extended and renovated and will
accommodate players and visitors to both the Laguna
and Millennium courses.
The terrain is partially open; similar to that of the
original 27 holes, where as the remainder meanders through
attractive pinetrees so the fairways tend to be narrow,
placing a premium on accurate play.
