Since opening in March 1993, the golf course at Hope Island has consistently ranked in Australia's top ten resort courses. Host to the 1997 Johnnie Walker Classic and Qantas Legends Golf Classic, the course is both nationally and internationally renowned. Designed by five times British Open Champion, Peter Thomson, and partner, Mike Wolveridge, it is rated by Australian golfing legend, Peter Senior, as "one of the best championship links courses you'll play". An iconic course it forms the centrepiece of the Hope Island Resort located on the north shore of the Gold Coast, just 20 minutes from Surfers Paradise and 40 minutes from the Brisbane CBD. The layout is set in a 360 ha residential resort community and the par 72 course measures approximately 6,500 metres off the championship tees. Careful strategic thinking must be employed around the natural and man made hazards and 128 challenging pot style bunkers. Other facilities including a unique aquatic style driving range, with putting and chipping green, a concierge bag drop and GPS carts further enhance your golfing experience.While an intangible asset in one sense, a primary point of difference with the Links Hope Island is the atmosphere of friendship and sportsmanship that prevails. Relatively young as a club by some standards, its comparative youth has encouraged a progressive attitude resulting in the absence of outmoded attitudes and a warm camaraderie between members, guests and staff.
