Marriott Hotels & Resorts was recognized by Conde Nast Traveler for three of the brand's famed golf resorts in the magazine's “Top 125 Golf Resorts in the U.S.” poll. Thousands of Conde Nast Traveler readers voted for the properties that best marry outstanding golf with fantastic lodging, dining and service. The results appear in the April issue.
The three Marriott golf resorts that made the grade:
Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort, Golf Club & Spa made Conde Nast’s list of top 20 Florida golf resorts. Recently redesigned by acclaimed golf course designer Robert Cupp, Jr., The Rookery at Marco blends a resort private course with the native surroundings. Appropriately named The Rookery, meaning bird sanctuary, the course is nestled in shallow wetlands that attract many species of birds. At more than 7,100 yards in length, the playing experience includes generous fairways, oversized and receptive greens, the option to play from one of five teeing locations, and immaculate turf condition.
After a day out on the links, the nearby Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort, Golf Club & Spa stretches out along three miles of pristine beach on the Gulf of Mexico, allowing golfers to unwind and enjoy a host of on-site resort activities and services. Discover all the amenities of Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort, Golf Club & Spa.
Kauai Marriott Resort on Kalapaki Beach, ranked as one of the top 15 Hawaii golf resorts is raising the standard of resort golf in Hawaii. On May 23 Kauai Lagoons Golf Club will reopen to play its Kiele Moana (ocean) Nine after a four year absence. Original course designer Jack Nicklaus headed up the renovation work that includes all new putting surfaces and bunkers and three new holes. The new hole is a new ocean hole, now the centerpiece of the longest stretch of continuous ocean holes of any course in Hawaii. The Kiele Moana Nine will be paired with the Kiele Mauka Nine (original Kiele front 9) to reestablish the world-renowned Kiele golf experience at Kauai Lagoons.
Sharing this amazing paradise is Kauai Marriott Resort on Kalapaki Beach, set amidst 800 waterfront acres along the Kalapaki Bay. The beachfront resort features the largest single-level pool in Hawaii, along with a new children’s pool, 356 refreshed guestrooms and suites, six oceanfront and open-air restaurants, spa, and fitness center.
