Replays

All Jamboree participants are welcome and encouraged to replay one of Bandon Dunes' world-class golf courses each afternoon. Replays are not included in the trip price, but all guests may pay for replay rounds in the golf shop at the time of check-in or may charge replay greens fees to their room.

To reserve a replay round, Suave recommends checking with the golf shop each morning during your stay to see which course has the most afternoon availability. To book a replay round at a specific course, reservations may be made by contacting Bandon Dunes after Jamboree registration is complete.

Suave has reserved a block of tee times at Sheep Ranch on the afternoon of Friday, March 14th for those that want to ensure they play all five of Bandon Dunes' remarkable 18-hole golf courses. This round is optional and not included in the trip price

Replay rate is $90 (applicable at all 18-hole courses at Bandon Dunes) 

Lodging

Lodging at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort is included with this sabbatical. Double occupancy lodging is located at the Chrome Lake Cottages. Single occupancy rooms are located at The Inn.

Walking Only at Bandon Dunes

Bandon Dunes Golf Resort is a walking only golf facility. Carts are not available guests unless they have a permanent disability and provide supporting medical documents prior to arrival.

Caddie Services

Caddies are recommended, but not required. Jamboree participants can select which rounds, if any, they'd like to utilize a caddie for on the registration form that is sent out after registering for the event.

Caddie fees are to be paid by guests directly to the caddie at the conclusion of each round. The caddie fee is $100 per bag, per round, plus gratuity. 

Weather

Like many other times of the year, the weather in Bandon, OR in late March can be unpredictable. It's possible that the Jamboree enjoys 4 straight days of sunshine and mild wind, while equally possible it rains for 96 straight hours with gusts exceeding 25mph.

We share all this to remind all Jamboree attendees and hopefuls to prepare for any and all possible weather outcomes, as the Jamboree will be taking place rain or shine. In addition to whatever you'd normally bring to a 4-day golf trip, Suave encourages everyone visiting with us to strongly consider bringing the following items:

  • Multiple pairs of golf shoes
  • Rain jacket & rain pants
  • Rain gloves
  • Comfortable socks (bring 3 more pairs that you think) 

Cancellation Policy / Refunds

Event registration will close on Friday, December 6, 2024 at 10pm PST. All cancellations before 12/6/24 will be refunded, minus a $100 registration fee.

After December 6, 2024, reservations become guaranteed and no refunds can be issued for cancellations.

In the event that the Jamboree sells out, Suave will create a waitlist for Jamboree hopefuls. If a registrant cancels after the December 6 deadline, they may receive a refund if/when someone from the waitlist formally registers.
