Nestled within the lush landscapes of Belek, Antalya, the Gloria Verde Course is an exceptional 9-hole, par-35 layout crafted by acclaimed French architect Michel Gayon. Opened in 2001, the course is set amidst towering pine forests and serene water features, creating a harmonious blend of challenge and beauty.
Spanning 2,923 metres (3,197 yards), the Verde Course offers a strategic test for golfers of all abilities. Its 28 carefully positioned bunkers and two shimmering lakes require precision and thoughtful decision-making. The course’s flexibility is a standout feature; players can enjoy the 9 holes as a short round, repeat them for an 18-hole experience, or combine them with the front 9 of the Old or New Courses to form the renowned Verde Select Course—a dynamic and diverse option for those seeking variety.
Designed to complement its stunning natural surroundings, the Verde Course incorporates the region’s inherent beauty into its layout. Pine-lined fairways and sparkling water hazards not only elevate the visual appeal but also add an engaging level of challenge, ensuring a memorable round for all.
At Gloria Golf Club, first-class facilities complete the experience. The clubhouse, featuring a terrace with sweeping views of the course, provides a welcoming space to unwind. The practice facilities, which include a driving range, expansive putting greens, and a golf academy led by seasoned professionals, cater to golfers looking to sharpen their game. Additional amenities, such as a pro shop stocked with premium equipment, fine dining options, stylish bars, and a refreshing swimming pool, ensure every visitor’s comfort.
As a key component of Gloria Golf Club’s 45-hole complex, the Verde Course plays a significant role in hosting amateur tournaments and enhancing the overall appeal of this prestigious venue. Its versatility, coupled with Michel Gayon’s meticulous design, makes it a favourite among both competitive and casual golfers.
