Description : | Introduction The Legend Golf and Safari Resort is situated within the Entabeni Safari Conservancy in the malaria-free Waterberg Region of the Limpopo Province of South Africa, just a 35 minute flight or a two and a half hour drive from Johannesburg. This new resort is setting new standards in exclusivity and tranquillity and reflects the rich cultural legacy of this ancient part of Africa. The Legend Golf & Safari Resort consists of an exceptional and unique 18-hole Signature Course, a luxury estate and many other facilities, situated on a Big 5 Game Reserve in the heart of the African bush. Resort Suites As the Legend Golf & Safari Resort Suites are built in the bush there are no fences or gardens within the resort grounds – just 230 wonderful rooms, built across the bush within the resort. The Suites, consisting of three or four individual bedrooms linked by walkways, offer accommodation of unmatched, timeless elegance dedicated to relaxation and reflecting the African wilderness. Panoramic views are enjoyed through large picture windows while glass sliding doors lead onto a secluded outdoor patio. The generously proportioned bedrooms include a small seating area and luxurious en suite bathroom with double vanity, spacious shower and separate bath. Signature Golf Course The Golf Course, designed as an 18 Hole Championship golf course, is the longest golf course in South Africa, providing all golfers, irrespective of their handicap, the experience of a true African Challenge. The course plays at 6,534 meters for daily play but is capable of being extended to 7,748 meters for tournaments, making it one of the longest in the world. The world class championship course, the Signature Course, with each hole designed by one of the world’s leading golfers, has been ranked ‘The Best New Course in South Africa’ by Golf Digest and provides one of Africa’s most spectacular game and golf experiences. Tribute Course The Tribute Course, a ten-hole Par-3 course, with each hole being modelled on the best par 3 holes in the world, is designed to be played in approximately 2 hours. This par 3 course is a journey around the best holes in the world and provides a stunning additional golf experience to the championship 18-hole Signature Course. The Extreme 19TH The now famous Extreme 19th is the world’s longest and highest Par 3, providing every golfer with an unforgettable golfing experience. Accesible only be helicopter, the hole is situated. Once the exhilarating helicopter flight to the top of this mystical mountain is completed, the player is treated to the golfing view of all time – miles of African bushveld stretching as far as the eye can see, a vista of epic proportions, and nestling at the foot of the mountain is the green – contoured and shaped like mother Africa herself. There is nothing like it anywhere else on planet golf!
