Overview

Arabella Golf Course, nestled along the Bot River Lagoon beneath the Kogelberg Mountains, is a serene par-72 championship layout by Peter Matkovich, opened in 1999. Framed by wetlands, fynbos and mountain vistas, it blends strategic golf with breathtaking natural beauty. Standout holes, notably the dramatic downhill par-5 8th and the lagoon-edged finishing 18th, create memorable, picturesque challenges. With top-tier practice facilities, a full-service clubhouse, and a five-star hotel/spa on-site, Arabella pairs premium golf with relaxed resort living. It’s a bucket-list destination where nature, leisure, and quality golf combine seamlessly.
