Stanbic Bank Gaborone Golf Club

Stanbic Bank Gaborone Golf Club is a golf and social venue on Chuma Drive in Gaborone, Botswana. Its 18-hole course sits among natural bush, landscaped fairways and mature greenery, creating a setting where the game unfolds alongside local wildlife. More than 80 bird species have been recorded around the course, and animals may also be seen during a round.

The course combines kikuyu fairways with semi-rough and bush areas that can make wayward shots more demanding. The greens have been reshaped and planted with a grass variety suited to putting, adding variation to the playing experience. The club also provides a driving range, putting green, chipping green, locker rooms, a pro shop and access to teaching professionals. Golf carts are available for nine-hole and 18-hole rounds.

Beyond the course, the club has a relaxed social atmosphere and facilities for functions and conferences. The clubhouse provides a place for golfers and social groups to gather, while the restaurant offers a more informal dining setting beneath shaded trees. Its layout allows parents to keep an eye on children while dining, making the restaurant suitable for family visits as well as casual meals after time on the course.

Golfers can use the halfway house overlooking the 10th hole for breakfast or meals during a round. This facility is intended for golfers, while the main restaurant operates on the same days as the course and provides the club’s broader dining option. The food service is handled by an independent caterer, so the restaurant is best understood as a practical club dining venue rather than a specialised cuisine destination.

The club caters to several types of visit, including regular rounds, practice sessions, golf days, informal meals, private functions and conference events. Its combination of sporting facilities, shaded dining areas and a natural course setting gives it a practical role in Gaborone’s golf and social scene. Visitors seeking a round, a meal, a family-friendly daytime setting or space for an organised gathering can contact the club before arrival to confirm arrangements.
