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.

Grand Palms should do better

Bad - Needs attention on watering. Fairways are dry.. some days it's over watered near the greens. Need to yellow rope of more areas. Drivers are driving to close to the greens carving out sections in the ground (#4 Sabal). Ball washers are there but no water in them. All tee box markers were not put in place..

The greens have grown out nicely.. All 3, nine holes are a fun layout.. Staff is great. Good practice area..

Much improved

Last time I played, the course was nice, but the greens were cratered and unplayable. This has since been resolved, and it was a very pleasant round.

What a change

This course was so bad 8-10 months ago! Pleasant surprise to see the greens being reinstated. Still work in progress, although 80%-90% there. Greens a little fuzzy and I mowed, presumably to allow new grass to mature, but overall a huge improvement.

Tee boxes now also getting attention, and fairways needing some TLC but you can see improvements.

Whoever is making a difference at this course, job well done, I hope you’re allowed to complete your mission.
