Mission Hills International Golf Club

　　Hainan Mission Hills International Golf Club is situated in the famous Xinglong Hot Spring Resort in the southeastern part of Hainan Province. Its seamless combination with the affiliated Mission Hills Hotel makes it the best choice for a hot spring golf resort vacation in Hainan.

　　This highly challenging 18-hole course has a total fairway length of 7,201 yards. It was meticulously designed by Robert McFarland, a professional golf course designer certified by the USGA, based on the original terrain and landscape. The course preserves the original hilly terrain and dense woods, with beautiful lakes nestled throughout. Tropical scenery, exotic plants, shimmering lakes, and mountain views are accompanied by the sounds of birds, allowing you to enjoy the warmth of nature while you swing. Natural hot springs bubble up gently, making a post-game bath an unforgettable experience.

　　The wide tee boxes and putting greens complement the woods surrounding the fairways. The course features significant elevation changes, and most fairways slope from high tee boxes down toward the greens.

　　The most unique feature of the entire course is the dual-fairway design. For example, the 11th hole — a long 5-par, 600-yard hole — has its fairway divided into left and right sections by a wide and lush wooded area. Teeing off to the left offers a conservative 3-par approach to the green, while teeing off to the right is an aggressive 2-par strategy over a 525-yard distance. However, this requires sufficient driving distance and accurate shot placement; otherwise, not only might the dream of reaching the green in two be shattered, but worse, you could end up trapped in hazards. Whether to attack or play it safe depends entirely on your skills and strategic wisdom.
