Life on the Green: Golf Course Residences, Redefined

When you buy a Four Seasons Private Residence on or near a golf course, you’re not just getting a world-class golfing experience and jaw-dropping vistas, you’re also gaining access to a plethora of outdoor activities, award-winning restaurants, and sporting amenities for the whole family. Moreover, properties with their own golf courses tend to retain their value over time. Most important, time on the fairways fosters friendships and community—all in your own backyard. 

Here, we look at six Four Seasons Private Residences destinations where golf and the good life meet. 

The Residences at Naples Beach Club 

FS Naples Beach Club

Naples Beach Club’s 95 golfside condos have stunning views of The Gardens, the new 18-hole golf course designed by Tom Fazio. The course is a tropical paradise, featuring palm-fringed fairways, shimmering lakes, and emerald-hued Bermuda grass. Golfers hoping to up their game can train at the robust practice facilities. Novices, meanwhile, can tee off at the family-friendly putting course, where state-of-the-art lighting allows for a new summer tradition, nighttime putting. End the day with a nightcap at The Shed, the clubhouse’s chic lounge and bar with a wrap-around porch and fire-pit, where you can compare bogeys and birdies to your heart’s content.

Four Seasons Private Residences Caye Chapel, Belize

A magnificent private island off the coast of Belize, Caye Chapel lies on the edge of the world’s second-largest barrier reef. Residents of the forthcoming Four Seasons will enjoy membership to the exclusive Caye Chapel Golf & Ocean Club, home to a Greg Norman-designed 10-hole championship course. Designed to be in harmony with the landscape, the course features long, sweeping fairways and spectacular ocean views on all sides. It reaches a crescendo at hole 4, known as “the Blue Hole,” where the green meets the blue of the Caribbean.

Four Seasons Private Residences Red Sea at Shura Island

Shura Island

Sculpted into the dunes of Saudi Arabia’s Shura Island, Shura Links—an 18-hole, par-72 course designed by the famed golf course architect Brian Curley—winds through sand hills before skimming the Red Sea’s spectacular shoreline. The country’s first championship island golf course, Shura Links offers multiple tee options at each hole, making every round a distinct experience. The course ends at the 18th hole with a magnificent view of the modern Clubhouse, with its striking petal-shaped roof, designed by the international architecture firm Foster + Partners. The social hub of the property, the Clubhouse includes a pro shop and restaurant, as well as a residents-only swimming pool and gym. Foster + Partners also designed the 75 luxury villas that dot the property.

Four Seasons Private Residences Abu Dhabi at Saadiyat Beach 

FS Abu Dhabi at Saadiyat Beach

One of the many appeals of owning a Four Seasons Private Residence here is the proximity of the development to the Saadiyat Beach Golf Course, the Arabian Gulf’s first beachfront course, and also the first in the United Arab Emirates to be certified as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. Designed by the legendary Gary Player, the sustainably managed 18-hole course features large bunkers and multiple tee positions. Luxurious amenities include Hawksbill, a posh clubhouse restaurant, and premier practice facilities, including a golf simulation room. Recently, the back nine was redesigned in partnership with Nicklaus Design, levelling up an already spectacular course.

New + Noteworthy: The Latest in Luxury Travel

The Four Seasons family is growing. Here are four new ways to experience our distinctive luxury hospitality.

Four Seasons Resort and Residences Puerto Rico

Situated along two miles of golden sand near El Yunque National Forest (the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. forest system), the new Four Seasons Resort and Residences Puerto Rico is a modern sanctuary on the island. For the utmost in seclusion, stay in one of the property’s airy and contemporary Villa & Residence Rentals. The collection includes the five-bedroom villa Casa Estancias, which features its own driveway, a saltwater pool, and an oceanfront lawn. Villa guests have access to the services of a dedicated host, who can coordinate in-villa spa treatments, meals by a private chef, and pre-arrival kitchen stocking, plus a personal golf cart for exploring the resort, which is set within a 483-acre nature reserve. —Julie Pham

Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort

While Miami dazzles with nightlife and Orlando thrills with theme parks, Naples, Florida, offers a different rhythm with its inviting blend of coastal serenity and cultural appeal. The city boasts more than 100 art galleries, has more golf courses per capita than any other U.S. city, and affords a host of water activities, from kayaking to e-foiling. The elegant Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort, adds to the destination’s allure. Set on 125 acres along a stretch of powder-soft sand, the new property features rooms and suites with coastal-inspired décor, such as sea glass chandeliers, and furnished terraces. On-site dining includes the Merchant Room, the signature ocean-view restaurant from the James Beard Award–winning chef Gavin Kaysen, and Sunset Bar, the perfect place to toast the end of another day in paradise. The property also affords a distinctive portfolio of Four Seasons Private Residences, with interiors by the acclaimed firm Champalimaud Design, and will soon welcome the Sanctuary Spa, and the Gardens, a new Tom Fazio–designed golf course. —Susan B. Barnes

Four Seasons Private Jet Experience

For 2027, Four Seasons Private Jet Experience unveils its latest New World Icons journey, a thrilling new itinerary designed for travellers seeking the world’s most distinctive places. The seven destination trip includes five new spots never before featured by Four Seasons: Jaipur, India (for a gala event complete with a camel polo demonstration); Iceland (with snowmobiling and a swim in the Blue Lagoon); and Anguilla (to ply the crystal-clear Caribbean in a glass-bottomed kayak), plus new properties in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and Italy, where Danieli, A Four Seasons Hotel, Venice (pictured above), opens in 2026. —J.P.

Four Seasons I Yacht Voyages

Some ships simply float; Four Seasons I reinvents what a yacht can be. Launching in March with Mediterranean voyages, the flagship vessel of Four Seasons Yachts delivers luxury at sea through structural intent, beginning with an interior steel frame that pulls load-bearing elements away from the perimeter to let glass wrap the exterior. The effect for guests is immediate: every suite, salon, and stairwell is oriented to the water.

Midship embodies the boldest idea. Built by Fincantieri in Italy, Four Seasons I carries the Marina (pictured below) through the vessel’s centre rather than tucking it at the stern, so doors can open port, starboard, or both at once. Pop-out, sea-level decks create inviting spaces where guests can lounge and relax, take a dip in a contained ocean pool, and enjoy a full suite of water-sports gear.

All 95 suites feature eight-foot ceilings, water-facing beds, and private terraces edged in glass. Guests can head ashore via custom Grand Touring vessels, including a salon-like, 33-foot Limo Tender and an intrepid Beachlander.

Shaped from the inside out to keep the horizon front and centre, Four Seasons I turns ocean travel into what it should be: unbroken views, easy water access, and the journey in focus. —Paul Jebar
