Overview
Set in the beautiful Constantia Valley, Steenberg Golf Club is widely regarded as one of the standout golf courses in Cape Town. Designed by Peter Matkovich and opened in 1996, this par-72 championship layout blends strategic golf with a setting that feels unmistakably Cape Town - vineyards, mountains, and immaculate conditioning.
For golfers travelling to South Africa, Steenberg offers something special. It's challenging without being punishing, scenic without feeling gimmicky, and located just 25 minutes from the city centre. That accessibility makes it a must-play for anyone exploring the golf courses in Cape Town.
The Course
The design philosophy at Steenberg Golf Club is clear: reward precision and smart decision-making. Long hitters have an advantage, but strategy matters far more. Water hazards, carefully placed bunkers, and subtly contoured greens require thoughtful shot selection throughout the round.
The layout winds through the historic Steenberg Estate, creating a unique experience among the golf courses in Cape Town. Fairways are framed by vineyards and natural wetlands, while Table Mountain provides a dramatic backdrop on several holes.
The course plays to a par of 72 and stretches to around 6,300 metres from the championship tees. Conditioning is exceptional. Fairways are pristine. Greens roll beautifully. In short, it's a course that serious golfers appreciate and travelling players genuinely enjoy.
Signature Holes
Hole 7
The par-3 seventh hole is one of the most memorable moments at Steenberg Golf Club. It isn't overly long, but it demands absolute commitment. Water guards the approach, and the green requires precision from tee to surface. Add the Constantia mountains in the background and suddenly this becomes one of the most photographed holes among the golf courses in Cape Town.
Hole 18
The closing hole delivers a dramatic finish. This par-5 sweeps back towards the clubhouse, offering a genuine risk-and-reward opportunity. Long hitters can reach in two, but water and bunkering protect the green. It's the kind of hole where a round can end in triumph… or disaster. Either way, it's a memorable finish.
The Clubhouse
A round at Steenberg Golf Club doesn't end on the 18th green. The clubhouse experience is a highlight in its own right.
The Terrace Bar and restaurant overlook the final hole, making it the perfect place to unwind after your round. Sit back, order a drink, and watch the final groups coming in while reliving the best shots of the day. The wider estate also offers wine tasting and excellent dining options, adding even more appeal for golfers visiting the golf courses in Cape Town.
For travelling golfers, Steenberg offers the complete package. Championship golf. Spectacular scenery. Outstanding hospitality. It's no surprise that many visitors consider it one of the most enjoyable golf courses in Cape Town.
