Well, let me tell ya, if you ever find yourself wanderin’ down to the south of Hainan Island, you gotta make sure to stop by this place called Jian Lake Blue Bay. It’s a golf course, and not just any ol’ golf course, mind ya. This one’s a real beauty, designed by a feller named Mark Hollinger. Now, he worked with a company called JMP Golf Design to make it all happen, and lemme tell ya, they sure did a good job.
Now, I ain’t no fancy golfer or nothin’, but I do know a good spot when I see one. Jian Lake Blue Bay is what folks would call a championship course, with 18 holes, all laid out on a big ol’ piece of land—about 860,000 square meters, if ya can picture that. It’s got a par 72, which means it’s got some tough spots for those who like to play a bit more serious. But don’t let that scare ya off, it’s real nice if you just want to enjoy a stroll with a club in your hand too.
The golf course is right next to this fancy resort called Westin Blue Bay, so if you’re lookin’ for a place to stay after your round, you’re all set. And the view? Oh, honey, the view’s somethin’ else. From a lot of the holes, you can see out to Lingshui Bay. There’s somethin’ peaceful about that, like the world slows down just a bit.
So, the course itself is built with these big ol’ sandy waste areas, which are real tricky if you’re not watchin’ where you hit that ball. But it also has lots of open parkland, so you won’t feel too closed in. It’s got a good mix of challenges, whether you’re just startin’ out or if you’re a seasoned golfer. Some of them holes are wide open, while others got more twists and turns than a snake on a hot day.
As for the feel of the place, it’s got a real nice, relaxed atmosphere. Not too crowded, so you don’t gotta rush. I’ve heard some folks say it’s a top-rated golf club, and I believe it, ‘cause every time I go, I see folks really enjoyin’ themselves. Whether they’re puttin’ or hittin’ a long drive, there’s a lotta smiles around here.
If you’re itchin’ to know more, the course was developed by the Shaoxong Jian Lake Group and the Greentown China Group. Those folks know how to make things nice. They got a good thing goin’ down there, and it’s been a real hit with golfers from all over. Even though it’s a newer course, it’s already built up a good reputation for itself.
But let’s not forget about the design. As I mentioned earlier, Mark Hollinger’s the one who worked his magic on this place. His team at JMP Golf Design sure knew what they were doin’, creatin’ a course that makes you think but also lets you enjoy the game. No matter if you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, it’s got somethin’ for everyone.
So, if you’re lookin’ for a place to play some golf, take in the views, and just have a peaceful time, Jian Lake Blue Bay might just be the spot for you. It’s tucked away in a beautiful part of Hainan, right on the water, and I guarantee you’ll find somethin’ special about it. Go ahead, give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.
