Review of Port Royal Golf Course

Originally designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr., in 1970, this stellar golf course was restored and reopened in June 2009 after a multi-million-dollar overhaul. Golfers cite its 7th and 8th holes as being particularly difficult, subject as they are to steep dogleg turns and occasional high winds, and the 15th and 16th holes as "gorgeous but treacherous," thanks to their location on windy clifftops ringing the periphery of Whale Bay. Greens fees are $193, or else $225 with golf cart included.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
