We had issues with our carts getting locked out when on cart paths. We think that GPS thought we were in restricted areas. Also multiple single players wanting to play through slowed us down- should be making them at least double up during peak hours

odd round

Course was ok. Tee boxes bad. Fairway ok, greens ok.
Member tried to play thru and course was packed. We denied him as we were all trying to finish and get to the signature holes to finsh. He yelled, swore,and told us he was going to hit into us if we didint play fast enough. On #17, he drove past and swerved his cart into mine, cutting my leg with something . Our cart couldnt catch him. Finished in the dark . All staff gone.

What a fantastic golf experience

Absolutely everything about our day was perfect from the starter to the bartender. The personnel were remarkable. The facilities were gorgeous and immaculate and the course was gorgeous and challenging. We came from San Juan to play and couldn’t have had a better day!! Wouldn’t miss the experience if I were you.

Course is OK! Not worth the Pric

Course was interesting but very wet from the rain in the early morning. Starter was OK, but seemed to be not interested in questions we had. We had to wait but he wasn’t certain how long?? Very strange! We asked where the driving range was, he gave vague directions and we drove forever and never found it. We played well and were enjoying the course when the heavens opened up, very heavy rain, we were on the tee of the 16th hole (guess that’s the only hole on the ocean, and we couldn’t even see it as weather was crazy. We ended our round and asked how to get back to the clubhouse, every where we turned the cart would stop and not let us move forward! We finally made it back, soaking wet, and an everyone else had parked their carts under cover at the entrance, no direction or organization at all. We had to unload our own clubs during the downpour and just got soaked!! Front driveway was flooded as we waited for our ride! Not a very good ending to our round. We tried to clean our clubs while waiting, but no towels provided in the cart. For the price they ask, you would expect much more, it just wasn’t happening that day!!

Not an ocean course

There is only one hole on the ocean, blind water in the form of a lake on 10 holes, played as a single even though there were entry of people on course o could have joined up with and the cost was too expensive at around $200

Great day on a beautiful course! There is only 1 hole on the ocean, the course was in great shape, unfortunately there was quite a bit of trash considering how many groundskeepers were going around.

All in all we are looking forward to coming back!

The course was in great shape, very wet due to some heavy rains but the crews were out working and doing their best to keep it pristine. There was quite a bit of trash on the ground at the holes that didn’t have barrels which was surprising given the amount of staff out and about.

Clubhouse staff was very friendly and helpful, great selection of clothes and gear.

Good course/pedestrian clubhouse

Except for 3 to 4 holes with poor drainage, the fairways were in good shape. The greens were fair, and pleasantly challenging. The Beach/Ocean holes ( 14 to 16) were beautiful and refreshing after playing several challenging holes. The clubhouse restaurant is pedestrian at best and one would expect more from a course at this price point. All said, I am glad that I had the opportunity to play this course.

The foursome ahead slowed us down on approximately half the holes. The ranger tried to speed them up but it only lasted a couple of holes. The ranger at some point should have held them up and allowed us to play through. It was very frustrating when your are paying this price to play. The course was very wet with standing water in a number of areas. Had to lift and clean our ball on every fairway shot. They should not have charged us the full rate because of the poor course conditions. They should have given us a 50% discount.

There are better courses

Course seems to have drainage issues (I heard someone else talking about this before I played). Many holes cart path only. It had not recently rained. Course was tore up in many parts. Cart paths are in disrepair. Played the ocean course and very little ocean to speak of. Will not play again.

Course was so Wet

We played the Ocean Course in early January of 2025. It was so wet, it was virtually unplayable. It was definitely not worth full price, which they charged us.

The whole place is a giant puddle

Went out at 9 told us it was a cart path only and we thought it would be fine. It was like walking around in the Florida Everglades. The whole place was completely underwater. I cannot believe they were even allowing people on the course with these conditions. Ultimately was a decent layout if it was dry but it was just a money grab complete waste of time and money.

$200-Not worth it

Played The Ocean Course; only 1 hole on the back 9 is located on the ocean! Course conditions were below average, especially for a Troon Affiliate and this price point. Carts stalled out on the cart paths and forced us to drive in reverse towards our tee shots for a few holes. Starter was super friendly.

Conditions were terrible!!

Even when calling a day earlier the staff didn’t mention that it was swampy and parts of the fairway on all holes had water on them. Brand new shoes drenched and muddy . I definitely would not come back for that sole reason and would not recommend this course.
