Although Belmont Hills Golf Club (formerly known as the Belmont Golf and Country Club.) opened in 1923, it has not always been the same course as it stands today. The original layout was largely featureless and so it was decided to completely redesign the golf course in 2002. The renovation was the most extensive golf course rebuilding project in the Bahamas. The new design includes fast, multi-tiered greens, tight fairways, and plenty of strategic bunkering. On the back nine there is a million-gallon lake that provides challenging water hazards. The changes made Belmont Hills Golf Club more exciting with a layout that favors accuracy over strength. The course also offers scenic views of Hamilton Harbor and the Great Sound.

Pace of play started off well but then...!!!

When I teed off @ 8:50 no one was in front of me. Did run into several very slow twosomes who kindly let me play thru. But upon reaching the 10th it all came to a screaming halt. It appears that resulting from many people waiting to tee off on the front 9 the course staff sent numerous foursomes off the back and this then resulted in waiting at several points on each of the last nine holes. Poor form--very poor form indeed by the staff. I have been to Bermuda seven times and I will never play here again.

Bit dull in poor condition

Bermuda was very dry when we played a round and the course was in poor condition. The staff were very friendly - so we were happy to use it as a practice round - but would not recommend otherwise!

Not my cup off tee ...

If I new that condition of the course was this poor ,I would probably never consider to play this course.
Found out after words that materials that was use to create this course was very hard like concrete, and that would explane hard and bouncy kick when the ball would land and it almost impassible to judge the bounce . If only greens were better, but...
Need to know course, but there is no info on it...

Value for the money - Definitely the right words

My friend and I played Belmont Hills Golf & Country Club on short notice. Had to rent ALL. No problem.
Nice easy atmosphere combined with a somewhat short course in good shape with big challenging but fair greens. Prepare Your wedges.
One thing though; Driving range facilities are poor.
If I come back to Bermuda one day, I will try this course Again.

Joined a Boxing Day Locals Tournament for fun

Arrived early morning of Boxing Day to find a locals tournament about to start. No problems given the unbelievable GolfNow discounted price we'd paid. Joined in the Shotgun start and had a great time. Challenging narrow fairways and fun greens offset by somewhat muddy bunkers signal good bones but dodgy upkeep.

Tight Bermuda Layout

I've been down to Bermuda the last few years to play fall golf. This was my third time playing Belmont. It is a very tight course with a slope of 133 from the blues. My brother and I like playing it as it has interesting holes with undulating greens. This year, however, we felt the level of maintenance had slipped a bit. Holes hadn't been moved for a while and the greens didn't seem to roll true.

maintainence issues

Traps needed sand, greens were rough, they could learn a few things about addressing people when arriving for golf and afterwards, no offer to clean clubs after round and it seemed that they did not care whether you were there or not.In the pro shop attendant was great.

Three great holes

Overall I would say this course was very nice to play. It would have been a let down if I paid the full price to play. With a hot deal price below $50.00 I would say make sure you play. The course was in nice shape. I was hoping for more holes that gave ocean views.

Hilly course

Played Mid September, course was in decent shape, pace of play excellent. Course is short, there are a lot of wedge shots, although the greens are small and tiered so they can be tricky. Sandwich at halfway was made to order and tasty.

Challenging course, Wide open in the afternoon

Attendant we met was very friendly. Booked the $55 special through GolfNow for a 1PM tee time. Arrived at 11:30 AM and the course allowed us to go out right away. Make sure that course does not charge you again if reservation was pre-paid through GolfNow as the cashier in pro shop did not check first. Course was in good shape. Somewhat short course (tees were up), but no forgiveness as out-of-bounds seemed to be on every hole.

Needs maintenance, still fun though

The fairways are showing the lack of care while the greens are still watered. Great run on hard, dry fairways but need to pay attention. My other issue was the starter. We had a time while the couple we got paired with did not. He told us he couldn't get us out for an hour even though I had a Golf Now tee time in 20 minutes. So he had us play 11-18, then 10, and finally 1-9. It was also very much a locals course the Saturday we played. They had preference and dominated the bar after the round. So play during the week if you can and accept lesser conditions for a good price by Bermuda standards.

Course needs urgent remedial work

Since the last time I played this track in March, it has gone downhill rapidly. The club is in receivership and the bank who effectively own it now have turned off the tap (metaphorically and quite literally!). Only the greens are now watered and even then they are aerated, so have few consistent rolls. With Bermuda's hot summer now upon us, the fairways are straw coloured and rock hard, which makes for a frustrating round of golf. I am glad we had a greatly reduced GolfNow green fee, but I am afraid that I would advise anyone thinking of playing here to check if it has a new owner first who has started to invest in the course's upkeep before wasting the money. It can be a good course again, but not until this limited maintenance policy ends.

Well designed beautiful course

Visually beautiful, scenic golf course. 90 degree cart rule was very helpful, as it was quite warm. Not a long course, but being accurate is a plus. Staff was very friendly and helpful. This was our first visit, and overall a very pleasant experience.

Enjoyble course

A nice course in decent shape, narrow challenging fairways. The staff were helpful and friendly. Small snack shop was open for coffee and a sandwich. Main dining room was closed until 7pm. The 19th hole bar was also closed for the day. Pretty surroundings, overall enjoyable.

I love this course

We play Belmont Hills EVERY trip to Bermuda. It's just jolly - yes it's short - but beautiful and hugely interesting. And the lovely Bermudian gentleman who runs that Pro Shop is PGA tournament 1st ranked in Bermuda!

Belmont is well worth playing on any Bermuda golf trip

I had last played this course before its 2002 renovations, so was interested to see what had been done to it. There is limited space on a relatively short course, so was pleasantly surprised to see to the significant improvements made. With its length (some driveable par 4s and par 5s you can easily reach in two if you hit a long ball), it needs its tight fairways, doglegs and greens with undulations and subtle borrows to be a challenge to most players. Add in some stunning views, especially from the short 17th's tee, and it is well worth adding to its more illustrious neighbours on any Bermuda golf itinerary. If you can get the GolfNow reduced green fee, it is, by Bermuda standards, very good value for money too at $90 for 18 holes with a cart.

Wind defined Golf

This track was incredible and tight. Leave the driver in the bag for good scores. We had a terrific time and should have played it twice.....worth every dollar! Wind was challenging and the Greens were PERFECT
