Arabian Ranches Golf Club: Reviews

Not ​a​mong the favorite ​golf courses in Dubai but still a good ​golf course and a​​proper test of golf.​ It is quite intimidating off the tee especially if you start from the 10th and you have wind in your face for the first four holes. Some good risk and reward holes - short Par-4 4th and 15th are also my favorite holes. We played the course right after the heavy rain … More

Large and active club... the restaurant is very popular with non-golfers, which is a bad thing for the golfers, as its so busy and noisy, that it detracts from the experience on #9 and #18 (all the talking and kids screaming...). The course is recently renovated in the past couple years and it's a nice day out. The housing is far off the exteriors of the course, so it's n… More

The club house is in ranche style and sets the tone for this course, which has the feel of a Mexican dessert. There is not much water in this course, it’s all about wasteland with shrubs, bunkers, fairways and greens. The course is surrounded by villa’s with a matching colour palette. The absolute forte of the course were the greens, arguably the best in Dubai. Another … More

After playing Dubai Hills in the morning it took us 20 minutes to get to Arabian Ranches where the parking lot was packed. We managed to double park and got on the tee with 3 minutes to spare. Very friendly starter and we got paired with a member from the UK on the 3rd hole his friend joined who was stuck in traffic coming from Abu Dhabi, welcome to Golf in Dubai ;) I e… More

I had my doubts about Arabian Ranches before we went there reading the reviews, although I must admit it was better than expected. The driving range is nice with practice of grass and pyramid balls. The course doesn't feature any water, but it is still a good layout with plenty of waste area's left and right of the fairways where you don't want to be. As I said it was… More

Not as well-known, perhaps, as other Dubai courses but a quality club nonetheless. Usual desirable properties surrounding the course and very convivial clubhouse options after your round. Don't stray too far off the fairways as you'll be playing from the desert and making a terrible mess of your nice shiny irons...

a lot of sand everywhere, real desert golf experience.

The Arabian Rangers GC located south east of the Dubai city Center is a different course as expected. There is a relation with the Troon Golf and this has increased the price. The course has wide fairways but they look narrow because next to the fairway is only sand and lots of dessert bushes. Therefore you need to hit straight shots and otherwise you practice your sands… More

Cheap but not an easy golf course. Maintenance not up to the others played in Dubai. Difficult greens. Fairway ok but it could be better.

Also the GC Arabian Ranches in the Emirates has not hosted important tournaments but stil the greenfee prices are extreme; they range from 150-180 euro for a round. The golf course itself is challenging because you have grassy fairways (call strips) and left and right of it is sand so waste areas are bringing the ball back to the fairways. Design is fine, but the enjoym… More
