Location
“Santa Elena Golf is a classic Dave Thomas design that rewards intelligent course management as much as solid ball striking. The generous fairways invite confidence from the tee, but the real challenge lies in positioning your approach shots to navigate the expansive greens and well-placed hazards. It’s a course that remains fair for higher handicaps while still offering a strategic test for experienced players.”
