Cornelia Golf Club anchors the Cornelia De Luxe and Cornelia Diamond Golf Resort & Spa in Belek, where 27 championship holes were shaped by Sir Nick Faldo through his Faldo Design studio. Laid out among the umbrella pines near the Mediterranean coast, the parkland course is arranged as three nine-hole loops, named King, Queen and Prince, that combine into a choice of 18-hole rounds. Each full configuration plays to par 72 over roughly 6,400 metres, giving golfers fresh angles and a different rhythm every time they tee it up. The first 18 holes opened in November 2006, with the third nine following in 2007. Wide, tree-lined fairways, generous movement in the land and the soft coastal light of the Belek golf belt give the round an unhurried, resort-perfect character that rewards careful planning as much as power.
