Luxury Golf Resort – Course design by Graham Marsh and Vijay Singh

Graham Marsh and golfing great Vijay Singh have combined forces to design the golf course for Qatari Diar’s Al Houra Luxury Golf Resort in Tangiers, Morocco

The eighteen hole course will be the highlight of Diar’s luxury development, which is located on the Moroccan coast. This will be the first time the two golfing legends have collaborated on a course design.

Al Houara Golf Course has been designed as two returning nines with the 9th and 18th greens located below the clubhouse. Most of the holes are situated on the eastern part of the site on a large and slightly undulating plain.

Five holes are located on higher land that will play down to, and then back, from the sea, providing a scenic setting for golfers. Among the holes are the 12th, 13th and 14th, which will become the ’signature’ holes of the course. Golfers will play down to the dunes behind the beach surrounded by views of the sea. “We are very excited to have two of the world’s most successful golfers, Vijay Singh and Graham Marsh, designing such a beautiful golf course for us in Morocco,” said Qatari Diar Deputy CEO, Ahmed Al Mazroei.

“Al Houara is very special to Qatari Diar and this new international golf course is just one of many attractions being created within this magnificent development to create a unique and glamorous travel experience for business travelers and tourists alike,” he said.

There will also be a large driving range with an adjacent practice green and chipping area, and a short nine-hole par three course on the southern side of the main entrance road.

The Al Houara project will be a $660m luxury tourist resort, covering almost 600 acres of seafront land. the development will include two 5-star hotels, a public beach club, residential apartments and villas and retail and entertainment facilities as well as a residential club. There will be a convention centre, club house, casino, forest stables and a variety of sports facilities. The larger villas sell for around $1.6 million, and are being marketed by Sotheby’s International.
