Reviewed By luv2run1712 - Texas, United States
Was fortunate to play Gavea two days while visiting Brazil. Let me just sum it up in one word - wow! I've golfed many places around the world. Gavea is now at the top of my list. Views are simply amazing. Short course but the undulating terrain, tree-lined fairways and strategic placement of boxes quickly reminds you the importance of club selection and ball placement. Holes 1-9 are played mountain side with some elevated beach views. Cross over to play 10-14 beach side where the new challenge is water in the middle, sand bunkers galore and massive waste bunkers throughout. To finish up the round you cross back to spectacular mountain and jungle views. I was required to have a caddie at 100R. Alberto was a tremendous help and a wonderful gentleman. Though we did not speak each others language, he quickly learned my way of play and was vital in club selection and reading the greens. Requested him even the second day. If you are walking make sure you are in shape as its a very hilly course. There is a driving range, putting green, chipping green, clubhouse and locker rooms. Security throughout the course. Handicap limit of 28 for women and 24 for men. I was required to pay cash for the club rental and caddie. Credit card was accepted for the greens fee.

This is the only golf course that is available to the general public in Buzios. Currently, here are the rates: A game of 18 holes - 180 BRL (green fees for week days) Golf cart/buggy rental - 120 BRL A set of rental golf clubs - 70 BRL Bag of 10 golf balls - 40 BRL Be sure to phone them in advance to check if the course might be reserved for a tournament or special event for certain dates. Otherwise, you can simply drop in first thing in the morning for a game ... without any advanced booking or reservation required. The golf course opens daily at 7am. There is a very nice golf range to warm up at before your game. For long hitters, this challenging course plays up to 7038 yards from the black tees. Have a Grrrrrreat time!!!
