The Ocean Club
The Ocean Club
Paradise Found is the name of the picturesque 433-
yard, 9th hole. This title perfectly captures the feelings
of a resident who frequents Ocean Club on daily basis.
Herbert, a limo driver for the Four Seasons Resort,
remarked that driving vacationers to the golf course is
the favorite part of his job. Herbert said, “I dream that
someday I’ll live here. It’s okay to dream big, right?”
With the course’s international exposure and
reputation for combining challenge with beauty,
Ocean Club has become a favorite for travelers
looking to add world-class golf to their vacation
itinerary. Leming attributes his course’s popularity to its
wide fairways, sterling conditions, and the dramatic blue
waves crashing along the course’s shoreline.
Big Break, Els, and Rose
The image of Ocean Club has found its way into the
living rooms of television viewers on multiple occasions.
In addition to serving as the on-site host for the Big
Break golf reality show in 2012, Ocean Club has also been
home to several LPGA events including the Pure Silk
Classic from 2013 to 2019.
Members of the PGA Tour have found Ocean Club
to be a great escape. Ernie Els held the course record
until Justin Rose broke his mark with a 63 in 2016.
Future PGA stars test Ocean Club in November during
a Mens and Womens NCAA event.
Caribbean Life Meets Wildlife
Before or after your round, you’ll note four Tabby cats
that call Ocean Club home. The cats have taken up
residence long enough that they answer to the names
Monkey, Bubba, Goldie, and Princess.
Birdwatchers enjoy the 40 different species of bird life
found at Ocean Club. There is a whole congregation that
operate on legs that appear longer than most basketball
centers. Osprey, Ibis, and a local family known as Stilts
all must order their pants in the Big and Tall bird shop.
If you tend to slice, please don’t be offended by the
guffaws coming from a species dubbed Laughing Gulls.
