Overview

Golf Club Santa Teresita is a 9-hole course set inside the Bosque de Santa Teresita, the forest that gives this Atlantic coast resort town its green backdrop. The club describes its home as a 54-hectare property with lush vegetation, and the golf course is the heart of it. On its own scorecard summary the club lists the course at par 72 and 6,247 yards, and it counts 162 members.

This is more than a golf course. The same grounds host a tennis school with lessons for juniors and adults, an equestrian centre with a riding school and equine therapy, padel courts where paddle hire comes with the court, a field hockey school for children from age 6 upwards, Pilates classes, and a spa offering relaxing and hot-stone massages and facial treatments. That makes it an easy choice for a family holiday where not everyone plays golf.

For golf instruction there is a golf school for adults and juniors, and the Cet Golf academy runs group classes designed for both complete beginners and players who already know the basics. After the round, Restaurante Hoyo 19 serves pasta, wine and coffee in a green setting surrounded by nature. It opens Monday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and also does take-away on (02246) 430-938.

History & highlights

According to the club, the layout of Golf Club Santa Teresita began to take shape in 1950, drawn by Luther Koontz on the wooded land the course still occupies today. The club keeps a busy competition calendar, with medal play events over 18 holes, a Confraternidad series, and its headline tournament, the Pelota de Oro, which reaches its 38th edition on 6 and 7 December.

A course in the forest

All nine holes are laid out through the Bosque de Santa Teresita, so trees frame the round rather than open coastal ground.

Pelota de Oro

The club’s signature tournament is now in its 38th edition and is played over a December weekend.

Hoyo 19

The on-site restaurant specialises in pasta and is open every day, with take-away available.

Tips for first-timers

Map & location

The club is in Santa Teresita on the Buenos Aires coast. Costa Esmeralda Golf Club is about 55 km away and Golf Pinamar about 65 km, so several coastal courses can be combined on one trip.
