Pearl Valley Golf Estate Verified listing

Pearl Valley at Val de Vie Estate exudes a luxury lifestyle with its 5-star clubhouse, opulent homes, Pearl Valley by Mantis boutique hotel, and outstanding Jack Nicklaus Signature course layout. It has evolved from a residential estate into a world-class destination since amalgamating with Val de Vie Estate in 2015.

Golf is still the main attraction, and the experience at Pearl Valley is one of the best on the continent. Jack Nicklaus has built six signature courses in South Africa, and Pearl Valley is ranked foremost among them. It’s not an exclusive experience though for members and their guests, or hotel residents, also being open to visitors. If you’re playing Pearl Valley, it is recommended that you arrive early, to enjoy all the facilities it has to offer, from those within the clubhouse to the magnificent practice range. With cool-season grasses on the fairways and tees, and bent grass greens, it has regularly been rated as one of the best conditioned courses in the country.

On the course, golfers have the use of a fleet of new Club Car carts with the latest Visage system.

Pearl Valley received an Audubon certification in 2017, and considerable attention has been paid in recent years to improving the wildlife environment. Natural grasses have been introduced which add character to the golf holes. Nicklaus created Pearl Valley on a flat site between the Berg River and the mountains, and has used water hazards and sand, plus subtly sloping greens, to engage and challenge golfers.

Situated an hour’s drive from the centre of Cape Town, Pearl Valley is a wonderful year-round golfing destination.
