Golf Holidays

In terms of popularity, there has been a major change in direction when it has come to booking golf holidays, with golfers who are making online golf travel reservations, having a much wider choice.

In the days of old, golfers normally booked a golf holiday package for groups of eight or more to go to warmer climates as the stereotype golf trip. Often this golf package was booked for large parties from the local golf club, who were often accompanied by their local PGA Club Professional. Another popular golf travel selection at that time was for the PGA Professional Golfer to accompany three others golfers to an overseas Pro Am in places such as the Costa del Sol, Spain and Algarve, which were the most popular golfing destinations of that era. At that time, online golf travel bookings were not fully explored and most of these golf trips were arranged on an oral basis by way of telephone conversation with the local travel agent or via the PGA Golf Professional.

At that time, families who were looking to go on a golf trip were often left with the option of either going for a 7 night golf break or the standard 14 night package holiday, which sometimes required golf tee times to be booked separately as part of the golf travel arrangements or when the families arrived at their golf destination.

As things evolved, there was a move towards Golf Breaks where golfers could book their golf travel for one night, a golfing weekend, and right up to 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 night golfing breaks. As part of this golfing trend, there was the introduction of self catering golf breaks which combined staying in the likes of an apartment, whereby the golfing package included rounds of golf at nearby golf courses.

Luxury Golf Holidays have always been an option if money was no object and there was for many the introduction of long haul golf packages to golfing destinations such as South Carolina and Florida. Also, exotic golfing destinations such as Mauritius, South Africa, Thailand, Dubai and the Bahamas, started to become more popular at far greater expense. To make this type of golf travel sound very romantic, luxurious and exotic, these golf trips tended to be known by the terms of Golf Getaway or Golf Escape, which tended to suggest peace and tranquillity, perhaps away from the rigours, stress and strain of modern day business life.

In terms of tranquil luxury golf breaks, there has been the introduction of global golf & spa breaks and there are far more golf resorts. This golf travel option is very popular with couples, whereby one golfer is perhaps wishing to play the best golf courses while their partners chill out at the pool or indulge themselves with the aid of 5 star health and leisure facilities. As part of this trend, this has taken another quantum leap forward with a number of golfing resorts being designed on a Beach Golf Break strategic basis.

Other golfing destinations such as France and the Republic of Ireland started to become more popular with UK golfers, who also wanted to play the best golf courses in Scotland (the Home of Golf), England, Northern Ireland and Wales. Such is the popularity with Golf in Ireland, approximately 100,000 golfers each year make their way over from England to play golf in the Emerald Isle.
