Arabian Ranches Golf Club Dubai

At the very core of Arabian Ranches, Arabian Ranches Golf Club opened its doors in 2004, and the entire course is designed by a master architect, Ian Baker-Finch, with Nicklaus Design studio support. It boasts a true 18-hole par-72 championship course that measures almost 7,658 yards from the back tees, cradled in the midst of the natural desert dunes and plants. 

The clubhouse exhibits Spanish-colonial architecture that provides a top-notch and yet easy-going environment for members and guests alike. Fine dining with terraces overlooking key holes, a pro-shop that is well stocked, practice facilities that include a driving range that is lit for night use and a par-3 academy course, as well as 11 guest rooms for overnight stays on-site, are some of the facilities you will find indoors. Being part of Dubai's high-class golf collection, Arabian Ranches Golf Club is operated by a top-notch golf service provider. It wins over visitors and members with the combination of managed access, guest rounds, professional coaching, and hosting events—making it an appealing and exclusive dream come true at the same time.
