The Montgomerie Maxx Royal Golf Club

Designed by European Ryder Cup captain Colin Montgomerie, Maxx Royal isn’t just another resort course – it’s a dramatic statement carved into the rugged Beşgöz hills overlooking the Mediterranean. Forget gentle coastal links; this is a course demanding thought and precision. Dramatic elevation changes, cascading waterfalls feeding into strategically placed lakes, and thick pine forests define the landscape, creating a visually stunning, yet undeniably challenging, layout. Each hole feels distinctly separate, offering a new tactical puzzle with generous fairways often leading to heavily guarded greens. What truly sets The Montgomerie apart is its risk-reward nature. Longer hitters will be tempted to take on carries over water and woodland, but accuracy is paramount. Miss the fairway and you’ll be facing demanding recovery shots, often uphill. The course isn’t overly punishing, but it consistently asks questions of your game, rewarding intelligent course management above brute force. Expect a memorable round where every club in your bag will get a workout, and where a well-placed approach shot feels genuinely earned. Beyond the golf itself, there’s a real sense of tranquility here. The course feels secluded, a peaceful escape from the bustle of the resort, with stunning panoramic views at almost every turn. The scent of pine hangs in the air, and the sound of birdsong accompanies your swing. It’s a course that stays with you long after you’ve tallied your score, a genuine golfing experience that feels both luxurious and refreshingly natural.
