Cinnamon Hill Ocean Course
 Cinnamon Hill at the Rose Hall Resort & Country Club the sister course to the White Witch, as both courses were designed by Robert Von Hagge. The lush layout runs through the ruins of the 18th-century sugar plantation that used to stand on the property, including aqueducts, tombstones and above ground tombs. Amazing views are par for the course, starting along the beach and moving up into the green mountains and valleys. The par-71, 6,637 yard layout is a solid test of golf and a picturesque site for enjoying the natural beauty of Jamaica – and is familiar to James Bond fans as the site of the movie “Live and Let Die.”
The front nine is open and wind-swept along the water, tempting players their and play aggressively. The back nine presents a completely different challenge, as the Cinnamon Hill Ocean Course turns inland toward the Blue Mountains – and turns tighter through the dense foliage of the Jamaican hills. You’re likely to find several coconuts if you’re searching for your ball in the rough. Fortunately, experienced caddies are on hand to guide you around the stellar layout, and you’ll want to listen closely on the greens, which are fast and feature plenty of break. Barrons’s has named Cinnamon Hill one of the top three courses in the Caribbean, and Golf Digest has ranked it as one of Jamaica’s top courses as well.
