Minthis Golf Course
Minthis is the oldest golf course on the island which was originally designed by the golf architect Donald Steele in 1994 and recently renovated by McKenzie and Ebert. This picturesque golf course is located in the mountains which ensures some spectacular views of undulating greens combined with the tranquil terrain that makes up part of the historic, twelfth century monastery of Stavros tis Minthis.
The fairways are lined with grapevines, walnuts, almonds and olive trees along with water features that are always followed by cooling breezes, thanks to the altitude. The very modern clubhouse restaurant/cocktail bar overlooks this great holiday golf course.
Minthis requires accuracy from the tees and a sharp short game in order to score well. This course features some great signature holes, such as the par 3 13th. The island green surrounded by water gives you a great sense of satisfaction if you manage to land the ball on it. This varied golf course with no two holes the same is a must play when staying in the region.
