Newly opened in Frisco, Texas, Omni PGA Frisco Resort invites golf enthusiasts to settle in to one of 500 plush guestrooms or 10 four-bedroom ranch houses and enjoy a relaxing stay.

There’s plenty to do when you’re ready. Along with four glittering pools, there are soothing treatments and therapies at Mokara Spa; a variety of entertainment and high-end retail therapy; and the resort’s stars, two championship golf courses designed by architects Beau Welling and Gil Hanse.

Fields Ranch East is an 18-hole, 72-par course by Gil Hanse offering tactical variety integrated with the property’s stunning natural features. Beau Welling’s Fields Ranch West is an alternative for players who’d like to work on honing their skills. This 18-hole, 72-par course has spacious fairways that are 75 yards on average and ideal for all levels.

You don’t have to be pro level to appreciate the design at the property’s other play options. Beginners can get comfortable at The Swing, a 10-hole, par-3 short course lighted for night play; and on The Dance Floor, a two-acre natural grass putting course.

The resort is also home to the first Lounge by Topgolf in North Texas, complete with Swing Suite Technology and simulated gaming experiences. For top-level coaching, club fitting and personalized on-site experiences for all levels, there’s also the PGA Coaching Center.

“This first-of-its-kind resort marks an exciting milestone for Omni Hotels & Resorts,” said Jeff Smith, vice president and managing director, Omni PGA Frisco Resort. “It’s an ambitious concept where we get to showcase the best of Texas while casting a spotlight on Frisco as a unique destination experience for visitors and locals alike.”

Among the 13 restaurant and bar options are Trick Rider, where dry-aged steaks and seafood are in the spotlight; The Apron Kitchen + Bar; and Toast & Tee coffee shop. Just beyond the main building, guests will find the Monument Realty PGA District, home to the Ice House communal beer garden, Ryder Cup Grille, Lounge by Topgolf sports bar and Margaret’s Cones & Cups.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.

Pedal through sun-drenched vineyards, hike amidst blooming wildflowers and take a refreshing dip in your ship's sun-deck whirlpool. Indulge in the flavors of the region with delectable dishes featuring luscious Wachau Valley apricots and succulent Serbian plums. As night falls, watch as the cities along the rivers come alive, pulsating with an irresistible electric energy. The sun-soaked days and vibrant nights offer a compelling reason to embark on an AmaWaterways river cruise during the upcoming summer months.
