Waldorf Astoria Golf Club

Good-1st time playing since redesign and the course changes are great. More open, several bunkers removed or moved. Lots of new chipping areas around greens. Changes on 4th hole are terrific. New par 3 on 16 is a wow. Bad-green speeds were uneven and some bumpy. A couple greens appear to be still growing in. Can't wait to play again when everything is perfect. Staff great as expected.

Good and bad comments: The BAD: The greens were very rough. Apparently they've had issues due to weather since Oct/Nov. However, we played Celebration the next day and the greens were excellent there. The really frustrating part was that I called the course a week before we played and they told me the course was in great shape. I don't appreciate either being lied to or someone telling me it was in great shape when it was not. This needs to get fixed for customer satisfaction issues as well as proper ethics. The GOOD: This is a beautiful course. The layout is great and very enjoyable. It was challenging, yet very playable. The staff was very friendly. The facilities are very nice and new. The range was great with unlimited balls.

As we had to pay full rate for the round at this course. The conditions of most of the greens were very poor. It was as though we were putting across green painted dirt. The head professional never mentioned this when we signed in in the pro shop and I do not think it warranted 250 dollars plus to play. The green fees should have been halved. Perhaps even Golf Now should review their pricing structure for this course at present because it did not warrant full price.

Fairways were in great condition as were the cart paths.
This course is challenging from any tee with deep bunkers and water on most holes.
A great course for low to mid-handicap golfers.
Tough for beginners and high handicap players.
I found the greens rather spongy and inconsistent

Pros. The staff were friendly, practice area nice. That’s where it stopped. Conditions of the greens were basically unplayable on some holes, tragically bad on other holes. 340 for the round and no mention that many of the greens were not worth putting. Uncut tee boxes and no ability to order food at the clubhouse after the round. They said food services needed at 4pm! How does they happen on a Saturday? Save your Monday and visit grand cypress, or better yet travel to southern dunes and get a great course for half the price.

The course was in very nice condition, however, I’m a bit disappointed in the condition of several of the greens that were bare or had very sparse turf. Also, the greens were incredibly slow. The laughing theme of our foursome was “who can smack it hard enough to get it to the hole”, and we just could not accomplish that. With the condition of those several greens, one would think the clubhouse would be offering discounted green fees, but that did not happen.

Great course and good conditions, except greens were of variable quality….. would expect better for price. Pace good, range ok, staff pleasant.

By getting a golf pass hot deal with extra credits was able to play this course. I think course is way over priced! The course is beautiful and close to our resort but prices over the last two years have been ridiculously high!

This looks like it can be a great track. However, the greens were terrible. All the rest of the turf on the course was in good to great condition, but the greens were terrible. Was very disappointing for the greens fees they were charging. The pro shop is well aware because when I mentioned it after the round the gentleman said yeah I know, we're working on them. Hope they'll get better soon.

Invited family and friends to the Waldorf for fun on the golf course. Haven’t played since the renovations. The Hard to improve on the original layoff but the did. New 16 hole is spectacular. A few of the greens were not looking good but still OK. Course conditions were excellent other than a couple of the greens. We will be back!

One of the best course layouts I have ever played and was a very fun course. Until you get to the greens! For a course that is $325 on the weekends you would expect very well manicured and fast greens, these greens were the complete opposite, they were slower than your local municipal course and they were very patchy. Disappointed for the price you pay to play.

Usually love to play Waldorf. I don’t mind paying a premium with this course because it’s usually in great shape…. They lost the greens. Maybe by mid summer they will get them back, but right now…. Not worth the money.

Waldorf did not disappoint. Free valet parking, brand new range balls. Golf course was in fantastic shape. A couple greens looked a little off but overall was a terrific day. Staff was great especially the first tee starter and the beverage cart girls. Looking forward to coming back.

SCAMDORF ASTORIA!!!! Staff was amazing, amenities were good. The course however is awful… to charge $300 a round for a course in this condition is absolute robbery.

On a golf trip to Orlando from mass .. we wanted to play most of the top courses in the area and thought for the 295$ they were charging it was going to be much better course .. staff was super friendly , starter was a great guy … greens were in absolutely horrible shape and slow as can be ( a couple were patched in with ground under repair stakes ) , it’s a 120/150$ course .. they have a expensive course vibe with the amenities but the actual golf course is nothing great … safe to say I will not be back here to play or be recommending this course
