Located on the south east side of Guatemala City, next to the Altavista Golf and Tennis Club, the Hacienda Nueva Country Club sits in the grounds of a former Jesuit monastery where many of the old 16th century buildings have been retained. The course itself is a Larry Packard design that debuted in 1996 and fairways that were first sown with a mix of Rye and Bentgrass have now been changed to Kikuya, though the original Bentgrass greens remain intact. The eighteen holes occupy a long, narrow valley with most of the tree-lined fairways laid out four abreast in a north easterly or south westerly direction. Bunkering around the course is rather sparse but where sand traps do exist, they’ve been strategically placed to protect par. |
