Anticipation Villa at Tryall Club - Private Beach, PGA Golf, Great Staffs & Chef

Golf is as much a part of The Tryall Club as the magnificent villas and the ocean views. The course is integral to the Club’s fabric, twisting and winding through the estate as it makes its way down to the coastline. Rated as one of the Caribbean’s finest, our course is both challenging and beautiful with a fascinating heritage. Just three years after opening the club they employed celebrated course designer Ralph Plummer to create a course that would work with the estate’s unique topography. Plummer’s design cleverly blends the 17th-century sugar plantation’s layout with the coastline and the landscape’s natural features.

Today, Tryall offers everything you could want from a 21st-century course. Audubon certified since 2010, extensively rebuilt and improved it is now of a higher quality than ever, complete with modern irrigation systems. Plummer’s original concept remains – the design uses natural hazards unique to the location, such as the trade winds – with the addition of an ocean-side fourth hole to create new challenges for every golfer. Anyone can play at Tryall. Whether you’re a complete beginner, a serious amateur or experienced player there’s plenty for you here. Our Golf Academy offers expert tuition for everyone, with small classes with plenty of instructors means you’ll get the attention you need to improve your game. Modern doesn’t have to mean busy.
