Blue Course

at Sheraton Golf Parco De Medici Hotel & Resort

Location: Rome, Italy | Style: Parkland | Par: 36 (9 holes) | Designer: Pietro Fazio & Davide Mezzacane | Opened: 1989

The Blue Course, located on-site at Sheraton Golf Parco De Medici Hotel & Resort, is the longest of the three 9-hole layouts and generally considered the “championship” portion of the club’s offerings. It features a broader mix of long par-4s and strategic par-5s with classic parkland contours and water hazards that come into play off the tee and around the greens.

Key features:

• Slightly longer routing than the White and Red, adding challenge for stronger players.

• Water hazards near fairways and greens create strategic shot values.

• More generous landing areas framed by trees offer exhilarating risk/reward options.

Signature Holes

Hole 5 A long par-5 that brings water into play on both the second and third shots. Precision off the tee sets up an aggressive chance at a birdie, but wayward shots often find hazards. This hole embodies the Blue Course’s blend of length and strategy.

Clubhouse & amenities

After tackling the championship-style Blue Course, the clubhouse provides a comfortable and social setting to relax. Its informal yet refined ambiance reflects the club’s international appeal, with panoramic views across the parkland surroundings. Dining options range from casual lunches to post-round drinks, making it a popular gathering point for golfers finishing a demanding round.

The extensive practice area is particularly valued by players preparing for the Blue Course’s longer and more strategic layout. A well-maintained driving range, complemented by putting and chipping greens, allows golfers to work on both power and precision before play, mirroring the challenges faced on the course itself.
