For passionate golfers, autumn is the time when they slowly have to say goodbye to their favourite hobby. Gone are the summer days that guarantee a dry tee shot and require nothing more than short sleeves. While most golf courses in our latitudes are now approaching the end of the season, the ideal time for a golf holiday in the sun is now beginning for motivated golfers. But what makes the most beautiful golf resorts in autumn? They all score points with their location in a warm, sunny destination, have a magnificent golf course and also offer everything you would expect from a luxurious golf holiday in autumn.
Constance Belle Mare Plage
A total of 36 holes await guests at the Legend Course and the Links Course in Mauritius. The latter was opened in 1994. It is special because it winds through the island's original vegetation and stretches along a beautiful beach. At the resort, athletes then relax in a suite or villa and enjoy the luxury that Constance Belle Mare Plage offers. This includes, among other things, a newly designed restaurant, renovated rooms and an extensive pool area.

St Regis Saadiyat Island Resort
It's clear that Abu Dhabi has plenty of sunshine. But that's not the only reason why a golf holiday in autumn on the island around 500 metres off the coast of Abu Dhabi is a good idea. It's also worth it because the 18-hole Saadiyat Beach Golf Course was designed by Gary Player. It opened in 2010 and stretches along the Arabian Gulf. The views are fantastic and with a bit of luck you will encounter local wildlife such as gazelles, turtles and eagles. Dolphins can be seen from the 5th hole every now and then. The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort provides an all-round pampering programme after the game.
