The course was not in excellent conditions as Majilis was closed. Playing with the flood lights made the back 9 a real challenge.

Greens were very fast - and there was a lot of water on the course. A good thinkers course where you need good course management skills.

The Faldo is a tricky course with the front 9 having water in play on the right pretty much all the way round. back 9 is more varied with some great holes and par 3's over water at good mid iron lengths. Service and facilities at the Faldo are second to none as its part of the Emirates Golf Club where the famous majilis course is. Faldo is a great course in its own right and also is fully floodlit.

This is a beautiful course. Staff are excellent and welcoming. Water bought to you on course. The bunkers are very hard sand (September)

Very profeesional set up as sson as you arrive at the gate, from bag drop through clubhose facilities and onto the course. Emaculate condition anbd no excuses really but its tougher than it looks an d noty easy to score and trouble looms everywhere. Some fabulous risk reward shots and long irons into greens. A must if your in Dubai but yes, can be pricey particularly peak season - 170-180 GBP but in the summer half price.

Always love playing here
Super friendly club, all welcome. Great range and warm up facilities. Course is in great shape, greens are firm but not ridiculously fast. Very much enjouyed my two rounds, Night golf was particularly tough - i would only recommend putting lights on both sides of tee boxes and often you're teeing off in your own shadow.Reviewer Rating

Faldo course - a Proper test of golf
I've been so lucky to play both courses this week and I can tell you the Majlis is easier! I played the Faldo 6 years ago in the blazing heat and found it tough. Today I played it late afternoon for the first nine and under floodlights for the back nine. Scored much better on back nine (15 points v 9!) though reading putts under the floodlights is not easy and i dare say the back nine is bit less hazardous. The front nine is really hard. Lots of long drives over water or sandy wasteland (wadis).So don't listen to folks who say play Majlis because 'it is better than Faldo' - yes it is more iconic - but I think they don't like to admit Faldo is actually harder!
I got it Faldo green fee for £125 today (includes buggy and range balls) whereas the Majlis is £200 (but i got it for £130 playing with a member) .....I'd say both courses have to be played to be appreciated!
Faldo course: I'm 14 handicap ...shot 98 (3 blobs on front nine....says it all!)

Wow!
Fabulous course! Played with a member which made it cheaper (600 dirhams so about £120). and I'd say worth every penny! There are so many great holes...not just the iconic 8th and 18th. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Awe inspiring. All staff were incredibly nice...taking care of your clubs, organising your taxis home etc. Marshall even noticed we were wilting walking in the relatively cool 30 degrees so brought us a buggy for the last 6 (where in England would that happen?).....Makes you feel like royalty. Although I've played the Faldo about 6 years ago the Majlis is a bit special! Shot 93, so +21 for a 14 handicapper and I was quite happy with that!PS if you are peckish after - go to the club house and order chicken curry on chips! Absolute delight
PPS round took only 4 hours and that included me stopping to take photo on EVERY hole
