Golf at Rōco Ki is an unforgettable experience not only for the game, but as a way to explore this magnificent land. The Faldo Legacy Course at Rōco Ki is the first of the three planned courses at Rōco Ki. Designed by Golf Hall of Fame member, Nick Faldo, the 18-hole resort golf course will also include a clubhouse complete with a restaurant and golf shop. The first tee presents a panorama of the course, the headlands, the ocean and the mountains beyond. On the 3rd hole, a par three, you descend into a tropical sanctuary where centuries-old mangroves line the fairways. As you ascend to the 15th hole, you return to the sea. For the avid golfer, the incredible 17th hole, named El Caiman, offers obvious comparisons to Pebble Beach. The only difference is that the 17th hole, crafted by Nick Faldo, is followed by an equally spectacular 18th hole. Called Los Dos Rezos, the Two Prayers, one plays over not one but two ocean inlets, making the 17th and 18th two of the most dramatic golf holes in the Caribbean.

Rōco Ki features a variety of luxury residential opportunities, including beachfront residences, Jungle-Luxe bungalows, Cliffside villas, EcoDream villas, terrace condos and villas and beachfront home sites. It is also home to The Westin Rōco Ki Beach and Golf Resort, with 337 guest accommodations and the Fairmont Rōco Ki. Situated on 2,500 acres and a 3.2-mile beach, Rōco Ki promises to further raise the bar for luxury resorts in the Caribbean.
