New Course

at Gloria Golf Club

Location: Belek, Turkey | Style: Woodland & Parkland Blend | Length: 6,950 yards | Par: 72

Opened in 2005, the New Course at Gloria Golf Club is a dynamic and modern addition to one of Turkey’s most prestigious golfing destinations. Often seen as the slightly more forgiving sibling to the demanding Old Course, this championship par-72 layout still provides a stern challenge, blending expansive fairways, pine-fringed corridors, and water hazards into a varied and enjoyable test of golf.

Also designed by Michel Gayon, the New Course showcases the same strategic vision as the Old, but with a more contemporary edge. It features large, undulating greens and dramatic bunkering throughout, while 4 lakes are cleverly integrated to demand accuracy and shot-making. Measuring 6,950 yards from the championship tees, the course rewards bold play without being overly punitive, making it ideal for mixed-ability groups and return visitors looking for variety.

Visually striking and immaculately maintained, the New Course has quickly earned its place among the top layouts in Belek and frequently hosts high-level amateur and professional tournaments.

Clubhouse & amenities

Shared with its sister course, the Gloria Golf Club’s facilities are among the best in the region:

• Stylish clubhouse with locker rooms, lounge areas, and terrace dining
• On-site restaurant and bar with panoramic course views
• Full-service pro shop offering top equipment and apparel
• Practice facilities including driving range, chipping green, putting green, and dedicated short game area
• Golf academy and tuition available for individuals and groups

Signature Holes

• Hole 4 – Par 5: A sweeping dogleg that tempts the long hitter to cut the corner over the pines. The risk is high, but the reward is a reachable green in two, if you can avoid the water on the right.
• Hole 17 – Par 3: A stunning one-shot hole that plays over water to a peninsula-style green. Club selection is key, and a well-struck tee shot is essential to avoid a big number late in the round.
