Italian Golf Journeys
At Cypress & Salt, we craft unforgettable golf journeys throughout Italy, from the rolling hills of Tuscany to the sparkling shores of Lake Como and the historic landscapes near Rome. Each region offers its own blend of timeless beauty, championship design, and unmistakable Italian style. Explore Italy’s premier golf regions below, where every course reflects the country’s rich culture, culinary excellence, and enduring passion for the game.

Tuscany is the soul of Italian golf — a landscape of cypress-lined hills, vineyard-draped valleys, and timeless Renaissance charm. This region pairs world-class golf with Italy’s most celebrated art, wine, and culture. Courses like Royal Golf La Bagnaia, Poggio dei Medici, and Castelfalfi Golf Club deliver rolling parkland layouts framed by olive groves and medieval villages. Tuscany has also hosted international championships including the European Challenge Tour Grand Final, showcasing its growing prestige on the global golf stage. Off the fairways, travelers are drawn to the Chianti wine route, thermal spas, and the culinary excellence of Florence and Siena. Tuscany offers a golf experience steeped in sophistication — where every drive comes with a view, and every evening ends in a toast to la dolce vita.

The Northern Lakes are where Italian golf meets alpine luxury. With a backdrop of snow-capped peaks, shimmering waters, and Belle Époque villas, this region delivers both drama and refinement. Courses such as Villa d’Este Golf Club, Menaggio & Cadenabbia, and Circolo Golf Bogogno are among Europe’s most storied, blending history with impeccable conditioning. Villa d’Este, a nine-time host of the Italian Open, is often cited among the continent’s finest inland courses. Beyond the game, guests indulge in private lake cruises, helicopter transfers over the Alps, and Michelin-star dining in Bellagio and Cernobbio. The Northern Lakes embody the height of Italian elegance — serene, cinematic, and perfectly balanced between nature, sport, and sophistication.
-
The Lazio region, anchored by Rome, is where ancient history and modern championship golf intertwine. Iconic layouts like Marco Simone Golf & Country Club (host of the 2023 Ryder Cup), Golf Nazionale, and Olgiata Golf Club offer a blend of technical brilliance and Roman grandeur. Rolling countryside fairways lead to views of distant domes and aqueducts — a setting unmatched anywhere in the world. Off the course, the eternal city awaits: private tours of the Vatican, sunset aperitivos atop Trastevere terraces, and Michelin-star dining near Piazza Navona. Rome’s golf scene delivers the full Italian narrative — heritage, artistry, and competition — all within one unforgettable destination.
Explore the vibrant spirit of Mexican golf in effortless luxury. From the oceanfront greens of Los Cabos to the lush jungles of Riviera Maya and the highland courses of Punta Mita, Cypress & Salt curates journeys that capture the soul of Mexico. Each experience blends championship play with five-star resorts, private transfers, world-class dining, and authentic cultural immersion. Because your next golf escape should be more than a vacation — it should be a story woven in sun, sea, and celebration.
No Mexican golf journey is complete without its signature experiences. Imagine sipping artisanal tequila beneath the stars in Punta Mita, sailing turquoise waters off Los Cabos, or soaring by helicopter from lush jungle courses to the Pacific coast. With boutique villas, vibrant cuisine, and nights alive with local rhythm and color, Mexico reveals itself as more than a destination — it’s a feeling that stays with you long after you’ve left the green.
