Palmer Coolum Resort Coolum Beach

Stay and play and play and play...

Sprawling over 150 hectares at the base of Mount Coolum, Palmer Coolum Resort is one of Australia’s finest all encompassing resort destinations, providing superior accommodation and an unsurpassed range of facilities and activities, all set in a natural environment.

Covering over one third of resort grounds is the 72 par, 6137-metre, 18 hole golf course, designed by the renowned Robert Trent Jones Jnr. When taking on the course that is home to the Australian PGA Championship, golfers will experience a unique blend of contrasting landscapes that depict Coolum, from the manicured fairways that drift through native bushland, to holes that meander through the vine forest. Whether you’re a professional or a modest weekend player, this course offers players a challenge they will enjoy.

Looking to improve your game? Then visit Palmer Coolum Resort's Golf Education Centre. With the latest in golf tuition facilities including a full swing analysis program, on-site ball dispenser, practice chipping and putting greens, and a flood-lit driving range, you’ll be prepared to tackle even the toughest shots. One-on-one coaching sessions with PGA Teaching Professionals and driving range memberships are available.

Once you've finished on the course, indulge in a little more luxury and leisure around the resort. Unwind with 'me' time at the largest day spa in the southern hemisphere, hit a game of tennis on one of seven courts, swim at a privately patrolled beach or one of nine sparkling swimming pools, or take a bike ride and explore.
