Royal Westmoreland Cassia Heights 29 - by Zenbreak

I only got to play the front 9 since the back 9 was being renovated, but the front was in pristine shape, with great views and challenging shots. If the back is anything like it, it should be great too. The fairways and greens were immaculate. The greens fee was $300, though I paid $100 because of the renovation. If you've got it, it's worth every penny.

I own a house here, and I think this is the best run property on the island. Tennis has been here for years, and they've recently added a second gym and pickleball. There's also a shuttle to the private beach in Mullins, where there's a great restaurant and a spa, Singita, across the road!

Our villa was beautiful, with a pool and a view over the golf course. There's a clubhouse, spa, and a place to eat and drink called Rum Shak. I'd recommend it. A shuttle bus also takes you to Mullins Bay.

I was thoroughly disappointed and won't be back. We were told to expect carts on paths, so a wet course wasn't a surprise, but it was more like a pond. We had to take preferred lies on every shot, which meant searching for a dry patch. Management showed no sympathy or kind gesture when I raised it. The green fee is $300, while Sandy lane is $260 and a proper golf course. There are much better and cheaper courses in Barbados. Unless it hasn't rained for a week, I wouldn't recommend playing here.
