Golf communities have historically been one of the strongest-performing real estate asset classes globally, particularly in markets such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Qatar. Now, Saudi Arabia is entering this space at scale—combining Vision 2030, sovereign investment, and global sporting influence to rapidly build a new golf ecosystem.
In cities like Riyadh and Jeddah, golf is transitioning from a niche lifestyle offering to a core component of luxury master-planned communities. With over a dozen new courses planned by 2030, Saudi Arabia is positioning itself as one of the fastest-growing golf markets in the world.
For investors, this creates a rare opportunity: to enter a golf-led real estate market before it reaches maturity, mirroring what happened in Dubai 15–20 years ago.
Saudi Arabia’s golf market is still in its early stages, but already has a strong foundation.
These assets represent the first phase of golf infrastructure, but they are now being expanded into full residential-led golf communities.

Around Royal Greens Golf & Country Club, expansion plans continue to position the area as a coastal golf lifestyle hub.
This is currently the closest equivalent to a mature golf community in Saudi Arabia.
Along the western coastline, developments such as the Red Sea Project and AMAALA include:
These will cater heavily to international buyers and high-net-worth investors.
To understand the potential in Saudi Arabia, it is critical to look at precedent markets.

The launch of LIV Golf has dramatically accelerated Saudi Arabia’s golf ambitions.
The Riyadh Golf Club now hosts major LIV tournaments, placing the city firmly on the global golf map.
LIV Golf is doing for Saudi Arabia what Formula 1 did for Abu Dhabi:
This has a direct correlation with property values in golf-adjacent developments.
Opportunity: Entry into master-planned developments before full delivery
Risk: Construction timelines and limited resale liquidity

However, these risks are typical of early-entry markets—and often where the greatest returns are found.
