About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6881 yards
Slope 152
Rating 73.6

Twenty seven championship holes await travelers visiting south Florida's scenic beaches. Grand Palms Golf & Country Club in Pembroke Pines also offers three nines: Royal, Sabal and Grand. All three are famous for having some of the best greens in the area, and the golf courses are played in three separate combos. The Grand/Royal 18, designed by Ward Northrup, comes in at 6,881, most of which is blanketed with palm trees and tropical foliage. The longest and most challenging of the Grand Palms' golf courses, Grand/Royal features some especially memorable water holes. A tight layout with raised greens (perfect for testing your shot-making talents), beware the Grand's bunkers, strategically placed along the greensides.

Really nice layout

Another South Florida fading beauty. Great layout, challenging and fair. However, tee boxes, fairways, and greens are all close to falling below acceptable. Didn’t see one operating sprinkler nor one grounds-crew all day. The course is dying for water. Basic, limited pro shop. Bathroom/locker room area is severely dated and I’ll-maintained. Probably still fine for an inexpensive round. The golf is enjoyable and the staff is friendly/nice.

Great Couse to play

I came as a single and the staff got me right out. Fairways pretty good shape, greens were fast, took a couple holes to get used to them.. Other than the painfully slow foursome in front of me it was a great day. I had to wait for every shot once I caught up to them.

There were no carts. Wait was over 1:30 after tee time. Went home without playing. I should be reimbursed the service fee. Ridiculous.

Getting better, but needs staff

The course conditions are getting better. You can see the work going into it. However. There is no staff. The starters are friendly enough, but there is no ranger. There is a free for all on the course and the pace is ridiculous, even on busy days there is no staff on the course. Groups of 6+ playing together, slow play leaving several open holes and golfers bunched together.

Don’t play here

Today I booked a tee time for 12:23 4 players. We drove almost 90 minutes to play when we arrived we were told that they had nothing to do with Golf now. They have 120 golf carts and people are waiting for carts. They told us they were running 45 minutes to an hour behind and turned us Asa after I prepaid for my round of 4 people .

When I asked what do they responded “wait or call golf now and get a refund we don’t have ur money”.

Never Again Playing Here

First time ever playing here and only needed 9 to never come back.

The absolute worse staff and pace of play. Took 3 hours to play 9. Asked for rain check because ranger wouldn’t tell group to speed up and they declined giving me one. Wouldn’t allow me to have any range balls before playing yet gave them out to members. I will never play here again and advise anyone not to waste their time and money.

Course conditions continue to improve

I stopped playing the course 2 years ago due to the deteriating course conditions. I tried it again after reading some reviews on GN referencing the improving conditions. The course has improved significantly from 2 years ago and looks like the new superintendent is working to keep improving the course conditions. The fairways are a bit thin but atill playable. Almost all the greens are in very good shape. Good price and value

Great course

Great course. Royal 4 is somewhat challenging. Sabal is my favorite. Greens are getting better. Most are in good shape. John, the started, is excellent. Can't say enough about John. I highly recommend this course.
