Divi Links is 9 holes at $75. + but if you go around it's just over $100. Not sure on Terra del Sol, imo it's got to be higher!

divi Links is the newest course DIVI property Divi village
9 holes
and those that golf are pretty happy with it

teirra del sol Not too far from the Lighthouse
18 holes
folks love that course
world reknown course with magnificent views.

wind proves to be a challenge for golfers
and yes it is hot indeed

Both are par 72 (Divi Links if you go 'round twice since it is only a 9 hole course), would have to be cooler the earlier in the morning that you play

Tierra del Sol

gives you the handicap for each hole

If you take a look at both websites it should be pretty easy to see course is more suitable for your game.

no comparsion to the two golf courses. Tierra del sol is much better and the view is great. It is a little more (ok, a lot more) windy there and is more expensive. But worth golfing it.

Terra del Sol, as Andrea says is world renowned, as it was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr.
