Mirage Country Club Port Douglas is a golfer’s paradise. Rated as one of the world’s best resort courses, the 18 hole international standard championship golf course was designed by renowned golf architect Peter Thomson, and contains the usual combination of 6 par 3, 6 par 4 and 6 par 5 holes all within two quite different 9’s with the bordering Coral Sea and the panoramic mountain backdrop providing the only distractions to a memorable round.
The course also has practice putting green and bunkers, and professional golf instructors, and any equipment that you need is available for sale or hire from the Pro Shop. The Pro Shop are happy to arrange mail orders and deliveries for you.

Very disappointed in this course. Greens on front nine were terrible, lots of kill and very slow. Back 9 was much more scenic, but very wet due to rain. Comparable courses around SE Qld are about $40-50, not the $95 they charged here. Will not play again.

Great course, really enjoyed it. Back 9 is considerably better. Front 9 needs great accuracy, very tight fairways. Green fees were a bit steep ($90 for resort guests) but I thought it was well worth it.

This is a good resort course. Very good condition and is challenging without being too tough. Well worth playing.

Although I enjoyed the length of this course and the surroundings, I have to say I can't see how the resort can expect people to pay this amout, this course has nothing on alot of the public courses of Brisbane and the Gold Coast, you would be better of playing the palms or the links, or Royal Mossman.
Enough said did not enjoy my experience at all.

I forked out the requisite $140 to play the course. Glad I did it, but I wouldn't again. It's a nice course but the premium you pay over others is not proportional to the course's quality.
The front nine winds it's way around the Mirage resort on the beach side of the main Port Road. A mix of challenging and easier holes, and of course the tees are set at lengths to suit varying standards of golfer.
The back nine is probably the better nine from a purist's perspective, with a greater links feel to the layout and you feel the course designer had more say in where the holes went - on the front nine you felt they fitted in around the resort.
There can be crocs on the back nine sometimes but the pro shop will warn you of that.
If you ignore the price of the round, you have to say it's an enjoyable course, in good condition and enough variation to challenge your golfing ability.
Alas it caters to those from countries with stronger currencies than ours, and there are courses around as good (and better than the front nine here) that charge considerably less.

Thoroughly enjoyed playing the course this week, it was in great nick, although the greens are the slowest I have played in a while. Perfect round for golfers of all abilities and it is not busy so play two balls on each hole for extra practice!
