Lely Resort Golf & Country Club - Flamingo Island Course

The conditioning of the course was excellent, particularly the greens which were in superb condition, particularly given the number of rounds played here. The pace of play was glacial however and that really detracted from the experience for me.

Played the Flamingo course while on vacation in Marco Island. Ended up playing the back tees. I am a 2 handicap and found the course to be very challenging, but fair. Greens were excellent! Extremely smooth and probably around 11 on the Stimp. Not a super high end course with perfect conditions (like Tiburon for example), but not super expensive either. Thought it was appropriately priced and felt it was a good value. Also liked that I was able to get on fairly easily. Would definitely play there again.

The course was less attractive than expected. The conditions were very well. The front nine holes were played in less than 2 hours, the back nine took more than 3 hours...no ranger on the course to speed up play.
Greens nice to play, pretty fast.

We played the whites, which made the par 3s a little short and too easy, but the rest of the course was plenty challenging.
Greens had been top dressed but were smooth.
Overall a real nice layout and 2 very good finishing holes.
#17 probably the best hole on the course; demanding tee shot to a well bunkered fairway. 2nd shot to a green guarded by water.
Fun course!

The Lely courses get a lot of play but are maintained well for the traffic they get. Course is open, no rough to speak of, but challenging bunkers protect the greens. The greens were also challenging and seemed like they were recently sanded. Other courses in the area were undergoing their seasonal overseeding so i suspect this course was preparing for that. Play was a little slow but we played in the afternoon, which to some extent can be expected. The Lely courses (Flamingo and Mustang) offer a great value and we found you could always get a tee time there. Challenging enough but not difficult. We would return to play these courses again.

Liked indicated pin placements on carts. Tee off areas well maintained. Great practice areas.

Good driving range. The course was quite interesting and the greens were slick. Stay out of the water though...quite a few alligators were lurking!

Nice layout, great practice facilities. Needs a ranger, our back 9 holes took 2.75 hours.

Beautiful course. Outstanding greens. There are a lotvof great courses in SW Florida and this is one of the must play courses. The staff is very friendly.

it was very good golf place and with great good Holes

The course was in good condition. We only played it because of the 'Hot Deal'. We wouldn't pay full price to play here.

We ended up playing the Mustang Course, because because they had just aireated the greens. The Musang course is supposed to be less challenging. It was perfect.

The course was very well kept and great value for the twilight time. I was a little lost playing this course for the first time. There was no gps in the carts and the sprinklers were not even marked most of the time. On par 3's it was a guessing game hoping the scorecard had the right yardage.

I have played the Flamingo course a number of times, never as cheaply as this time with the "Hot Deal" at $18 plus tax. However, the rental sets are, to me, extortionate at $45 per set for a round. Nice enough clubs (Nike) but not worth that price.
You also get three complimentary pinnacles which is a nice touch.
The course itself was extremely wet and we lost a couple of balls due to plugging on the fairways.

Maintenance crew was everywhere and I could not finish 3 hole. Then when I asked about the range they told me it was closed, who in the morning they said I could practice after I play. Poor communication throughout staff obviously. I was definitely not worth the money I paid for that day.
The course itself I magnificent, but those condition made it horrible.

Course was in good condition, one of the better ones I have played this summer. Lots of undulation, mounding in fairways. Large greens that were fairly quick. Well bunkered.

Course was empty, played by myself. The Flamingo stays a bit wet, but course is in very good condition. Bunkers are excellent, greens always seem to have sand on them though.

I / we play this course every time we're in Naples - ONe of our top 5 courses.

When I arrived at the bag drop off there was on one to greet me. I parked my car and then someone showed. When I asked if this was the right golf course in Lely that I had made reservations, he acknowledged but no effort to escort back to my car for the clubs. Pro shop wasn't much different. Had to seek out and ask the bag guy where the first tee was located. Would not go back or recommend.

Evevthough it was wet the course was a lot of fun to play.
