The Old course at the Gloria Golf Resort opened for play in September 1997 and was fashioned by the French golf course designer Michel Gayon. It’s one of the eldest Turkish golf courses and has become a true favourite for thousands of travelling golfers with many returning annually. The beautiful forest location at the feet of the Taurus Mountains provides a wonderful amphitheatre for golf and Gayon has a created a classic design that will remain one of Turkey’s great courses despite the boom of new layouts that are rapidly springing up in the Belek area.
The Old course opens up strongly with the 1st, a par five requiring an approach over water, followed by the par three 2nd, again crossing water, this time from tee to green. The Old Gloria course then continues through delightful pine woodland, with a collection of strong holes that bring seven lakes into play and more than sixty bunkers. Many great courses feature a short par four and the Old course has the 16th with a massive lake to the left, out of bounds to the right and bunkers at the green. Short yes, but easy it is not and par is always a welcome score.
The greens are maintained to a high standard with a carpet-like feel and are among the best in the area. The Gloria resort boasts a fabulous new clubhouse, extensive practice facilities, a further 27 holes (including the New course) and an atmosphere for the golfer taking priority. All these factors help to make the Gloria Golf Club a very special experience.
