Set within an old limestone quarry on Barbados’ west coast, the Green Monkey at Sandy Lane is one of the Caribbean’s most exclusive golfing experiences. Designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 2004, this par-72 championship course is reserved for Sandy Lane hotel guests and villa owners, ensuring a peaceful, unhurried round.

Dramatic elevation changes, exposed rock faces and immaculate conditioning define the layout, with several holes carved directly through the quarry walls. At over 7,300 yards from the back tees, it offers a strong test, yet multiple tee options make it playable for a range of abilities. Impeccable service, pristine fairways and a refined clubhouse setting complete what is widely regarded as Barbados’ premier course.
