About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 71
Length 6682 yards
Slope 141
Rating 72.6

Located in Pembroke Pines, picturesque Grand Palms Golf & Country Club offers three nines: Royal, Sabal and Grand. The nine-hole courses are playable in three combos, with the Sabal/Grand coming in at a 6,682 yards. Of the three, Sabal/Grand is the most helter skelter, combining the shortest and longest nines. The Grand is a tight golf course that offers a challenge for most, what with its raised greens, narrow fairways and challenging water holes. Sabal, by contrast, is a resort-style play, with a gentler game featuring generous fairways and greens.

Worst greens EVER

We have played here a few times over the last two years and the course just gets worse and worse. Today the greens were horrendous and should be considered unplayable. We paid $35 for the twilight tee time however based on the conditions of the greens I wouldn’t even say it is worth that cost. I like the course layout is great and it would be a nice course if it was in better condition, won’t be playing here again for atleast 6 months. Such a shame. Attached is a photo of the greens (incase you can’t see what it is!)

Unplayable

Greens are unplayable. The course doesn’t seem to drain well as it was soaked and all we had was a light morning shower overnight. The first tee box and fairway were overgrown but filled so I can’t say much there but the greens are destroyed. My wife and I got a refund after seeing this hole And the staff told us that all the Green are not puttable. They told us when we were asking for a refund and not before. I can’t imagine this course being an option for several months that it’s current state.

Needs Improvement!

The course is ok. Looks visually nice. There are no maps or hazards displayed. You can not visually see the pond hazards in several areas. You loose a lot of balls because of this. The greens are way too wet and are brown and lumpy. Hard to gauge the speed. The course needs much needed improvement.

Horrible greens conditions

I'm disappointed Golfnow has this golf course on there list, I expected more. The condition of the greens on the course are horrible, in fact unplayable. There is not one green in good condition, seems this course does not have a greens keepers , I'm surprised it's still open.

The staff does their best to attend to you , but this course should be shut down until they repair the course.

NOT THE SAME COURSE

This used to be my favorite course, I wouldn’t recommend this course to anyone for multiple reasons.

1. Terrible Greens

2. Fees don’t go to fixing the course

3. Employees are saying the owner does not want to pay for upkeep and likes to keep the money instead.

!!DO NOT SUPPORT THIS COURSE!!!

Greens conditions

No one say the greens are in very poor conditions, I played with my cousin on Sabal and grand course and no fair green in 18 holes played. I do not recommend at this time

Horrendous Greens

Impossible to putt straight due to all the dirt patches and weeds on the greens. Sabal greens are horrendous.

Course needs some Love

Tee boxes were the best thing on the course. Couldn’t really putt on the bumps on the greens. Need a little more signage and direction on which back nine to play. Course seems like it was a nice course once upon a time but now needs a little love to bring it back.

The golf course is in very bad condition

The greens were in very very bad shape. I played this course before (2018) and it was in much better condition. The fairways were decent but the greens and tee boxes were in very bad shape.

Greens? Ehhhh, maybe not.

The staff members at this course are awesome!

Unfortunately, this trait does not carry over to the course itself. The greens were the absolute worst we've ever seen. I have included one photo that is representative of their overall "quality" but could have easily added about 16 more.

Occasionally you will encounter a tee box that is in excellent condition, or a fairway that is actually plush, but I believe this is more indicative of what this course used to be rather that its current state. In its current condition this course is worth no more than $25 - $30 a round.
