Beach front resort course in Alabama honoured by Golfweek

Kiva Dunes, the only beach front resort course in Alabama, has been named to Golfweek magazine’s “America’s Best Resort Courses” national rankings.

The list included hundreds of U.S. courses that were rated on their overall strength of routing, shaping, natural setting, greens, variety and memorable holes, conditioning and maintenance, landscape management and other criteria.

"Gulf Shores continues to garner national golf rankings, reinforcing it as a ‘must see’ destination,” says Duncan Millar, executive director of Golf Gulf Shores. “Kiva Dunes is among the best courses in the country, situated within 45 minutes of eight other stellar layouts that offer a variety of designs and price points. We’re thrilled they’re all offering terrific deals through the winter, allowing golfers to create their own rankings.”

Kiva Dunes is a Jerry Pate-design that offers spectacular beauty as it meanders through the property’s native sand dunes, lakes and natural wildlife areas. Secluded on an extraordinary piece of property that lies directly on the Gulf of Mexico, golf enthusiasts have the rare opportunity to play a magnificent seaside links layout.
