Although the Tikida course is the shorter of the two layouts, it arguably has the lion's share of interesting holes and water features. The 7th and 8th holes located nearby Tikida Palace hotel feature plenty of water as evidence. In general the course has narrow fairways with jungle running alongside, greens that are subtly contoured and well defended by bunkers. Tikida is a strategic course rewarding thought and patience from the tees through the greens.
