Located in the heart of the beautiful 475-acre Apes Hill, Little Apes is a fun and scenic short course for the whole family, where golfers of all ages and abilities can share the joy of the game. With nine holes ranging from 95 to 145 yards, the par-27 walking course is set amid breathtaking views of Barbados and the Caribbean Sea.
Designed by golf course architect Ron Kirby, who also designed the 18-hole layout of Apes Hill, which is ranked number 76 Golf week “Top 100 International Courses, the short course holes are inspired by famous golf holes from around the world, redesigned for family-friendly play.
The award underlines Apes Hill Barbados’ growing reputation as a world-class golf and lifestyle destination, where innovation, sustainability and community are core pillars.
