About
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.

Good warm up round
Course was in good shape, Staff very friendly and helpful. Pace of play was good as well. Only critique would be the length, especially on the back nine, but we knew this going in. Course was in tally good shape.
Challenging executive course
Don’t let this course fool you, it’s quite challenging. Great staff, good pace of play and a good assortment of holes. Considering the time of year, this course was in good shape. Had a great day!
Nice Executive
Had a very enjoyable round with a few friends, taking just 2 1/2 hours to complete. Fairways were mostly good, but quite a few brown spots as wait for the warmer weather to kick-start the Bermuda grass. Greens were about the same. Staff here is outstanding. However, they started to apply what appears to be Armor All to the golf carts. While it looks great, it caused some issues. One, my hands got greasy as it was applied to every part of the cart, including steering wheel, gas pedal, brake pedal, floor, etc. Not only did I have to wash my hands with a wet towel before grabbing a club, my foot (with spikes) kept slipping on the pedals, which got dangerous.I would have much preferred no Armor All.
Fun little track!
Only a par 66, but a lot of fun to play. The course makes you think about different clubs to use to put you in the right spot. The greens are fast but fair. Tee boxes and fairways are in good shape, too. My son-in-law and I were pleasantly surprised to see as much water on the course as we did; reminds us of home in Florida. The pro-shop staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall a great experience!
In Transition
Play here quite a bit and always enjoy. Course is currently in transition, so many brown areas in the fairways, green, and tee boxes, but that is expected.
Nice Course
Conditions of the course are typical for this time of year as we are transitioning from spring to summer. As such, greens, fairways, and tee boxes are not in the best shape. However, staff is great, pace was great, and so were our playing partners. They have added water buckets on the first tee, which is nice. However, the sand bottles on our cart needed attention, one was missing, and the other was nearly empty. We always repair our divots, but could not this day. We'll still be back.
Good time
The experience was great golfing with my Dad celebrating his 90th birthday and my birthday as well. Then some rude lady came up and told us we had better pickup the pace. I tried to explain that my Dad needed a little more time but she stomped off. My Dad then felt he could not keep up that pace and went to sit in the community center. This event affected the experience by having to deal with rude entitled people who act like they own the course. I paid for my Dad to golf 18 holes and he was only allowed to because of this lady.
Enjoy
A shorter course with green fairways, teeoff boxes & well groomed greens. There were several short par threes; however, there were many creative par 4s with one par 5. Water came into play on a few holes.
