"Surprised there were no cart girls making rounds. I’ve played at more affordable courses that still offer full cart service."

Also..
"The driving range was a bit underwhelming—you could only hit off mats, and they gave you just three tees for warming up with a driver. After three swings, no more tees. On the bright side, the food was great and the staff was super friendly. But Overall, I wouldn’t pay more than $150 to play here.

The Location is everything

What scenic views and a shot makers course. You can’t even be upset with bad shots if you just look up around you.
The course is challenging but fun and even a couple weeks after aeration it was very playable and looked fantastic.
The rest was below expectation. Only on staff working the turn with long waits for food and drink. No cart girl that day and we took showers after the round and there was just a small bottle of generic shampoo. No soap, lotion or anything else. Even an Aloft has nicer toiletries.
But from a golf perspective, this rivals Pebble in my mind. A must play in my book.

Altho sand top dressing affected green conditions, always a great time playing this course. Staff friendly, stellar views. Difficult.

Bunkers need more sand

The price is definitely on the higher end and I don't think it's totally worth it until they fix some of the problems like there's no sand in the bunkers. Hard pan ain't fun when there's alot of tricky greenside bunkers.

Pace of play was also bad, groups infront were behind by almost 20mins.

Fantastic!

From the moment you get a free Valet parking to free range balls to a helpful and pleasant staff, Trump National LA was Outstanding! The amenities were great and the course was in excellent condition! Great spacing between tee times, we never felt rushed or ran into the group ahead of us. Excellent views and over 1/2 of the holes felt like signature holes. It is difficult and you will lose balls but it is worth it. Will play here again next time I visit.

Sand traps

The sand was the only thing wrong with this course, traps had no sand in them, such a pretty course to have unplayable bunkers is a shame! Greens are perfect and tough!

Great course for golfers

I like this course because it has good fairways and challenges greens and beautiful ocean views with splendid sunsets.
