Course Highlights
Sunbird's well-maintained fairways, forgiving roughs, and a winding layout through homes give golfers an enjoyable short-game challenge. Exceptionally friendly staff and outstanding value consistently draw players back for more rounds.

The course at the Sunbird Golf Resort is a desert-style course that offers three sets of tee boxes to accommodate most skill levels. This executive length golf course has a country club-type atmosphere and offers a good round of golf. The greens are medium sized with some that are multi-tiered and narrow fairways. Bunkers and trees are also present on the course, adding some challenge since they can greatly affect shots. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. In addition to the executive course at Sunbird Golf Resort, the facility also offers a putting area and chipping green as well as a fully stocked pro shop.

I like the length of the couse; not too long, nor super short, either.

Nice upscale Golf Community

Greens were in great shape. Quite a bit of water, but more for looks than obstacles.

Course layout allows walking if desired.

Over priced for greens and tee box conditions. Distance from tee to fairway at times was a little too long.

Descent for the price

Elderly community and obviously don’t prefer to have golfers outside of their community golf there. Course was decent, elderly home owners watch you golf from their back yards and are very very RUDE! All eyes on you if you aren’t 65+!
