West at Jacaranda Golf Club
About
Both the East Course and the West Course at Jacaranda Golf Club are four-star rated by Golf Digest. These challenging golf courses weave across a tropical landscape covered with blue lagoons, tranquil ponds, and swaying palm trees. The West Course is the shorter of the two courses but it is no less challenging. Strategy and skill, rather than length, are the determining factors on this layout. With water hazards to avoid, numerous tricky doglegs, and tight bunkering along the greensides and landing areas, this course is definitely a shot-maker's layout. The raised, sloped greens and undulating, tree-lined fairways will require some careful maneuvering. The outward nine is slightly more forgiving than the demanding inward nine, which features more boldly contoured green complexes. The challenging, yet versatile design of both golf courses has made Jacaranda one of southeast Florida's most popular golfing destinations.

Long but Fun
The staff was great especially Mr Gonzales, the starter. The condition of the greens and overall course was exceptional. The course played long because of the recent thunderstorms that day, but I had lot fun. I would definitely recommend this course.
Thank you so much for the great review! We are thrilled to know you found the condition of the course as well as the customer service to be outstanding. See you soon!
Excellent
Haven’t golfed here during peak season but now rates are coming down and sure glad I played. Got used to the bad conditions at cheaper courses and so happy I played this course with great layout and excellent conditions.
We are very happy you made your way back to Jacaranda. Thank you for the very nice review. We hope you've heard of the new SCORE! Card we're offering - $35 Cart Fees All Summer! We look forward to seeing you soon.
Golfnow hot deal
Great course...excellent condition...a steal with a hot deal from golf now!!
We're so glad you enjoyed Jacaranda and we hope to see you again soon.
We appreciate the 5 star! See you soon!
Marshall’s not around
Played the west course which I booked expecting 2 others as the tee time was only for two players. Tees off as a single with a husband wife in front of me and another husband wife in front of them. On them since 1st hole. Never asked to let me play through or join up. Took me 2.5 hours for 9 holes. Made the turn and it took 30 minutes to play #10. Went back to starter who sent me to the east course. Once there I had three groups let me play through and finished that 9 in about an hour and fifteen minutes. I guess the Russian groups don’t allow singles to play through but speak clear English when you fly one over them.
Thank you for taking the time to post a review about Jacaranda. We're sorry you experienced some slow play issues and we will address that with our staff to prevent this in the future. We sincerely hope to see you again soon.
Nice course in great shape!
Jacaranda West is much more challenging than the East course. Fairways and Greens are in excellent condition. Staff is very friendly. We had a great afternoon and would come again.
We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed Jacaranda's West Golf Course. Thank you for taking the time to post a review and we're looking forward to your next visit.

Thank you for the great rating! We are glad you enjoy the course and hope you'll be back for another round soon.
Very slow pace
The pace of play was so bad... three foursomes on same hole the whole game. Waited at every hole.. Players assistant said it was normal on a Friday morning... we did not pay less for that!
Too bad because it is a nice course.
Thank you for taking the time to rate and review Jacaranda. While we are glad you enjoyed the golf course conditions, it is not normal for the pace to be slow any day of the week. We apologize for that and we will address the situation with our staff. We sincerely hope to see you again soon.
A pleasant experience with Jacaranda West course
The layout was good and challenging. The staff were friendly. Everything timely. GPS on the cart was helpful. GPS connectivity was occasionally lost, but regained. Good value for the money, since I got in as part of their Hot Deals. Putting on these greens was slow and slightly unpredictable - perhaps because of the type grass and/or maintenance. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would recommend this to others
We are so glad to hear you enjoyed Jacaranda. We work hard to provide top quality conditions and customer service and it's so nice to know when we've succeeded. We hope to see you very soon.
Thank you for rating Jacaranda. We look forward to providing you with a 5 star experience in the future.
Beautiful course
First public course that I have played this year that will actually hold a approach shot! Fairways in awesome shape. We’re on vacation for the winter here and my wife plays with me. First public that we’ve played where tee boxes for women are well thought out and fair to most woman.
What a wonderful review! Thank you for sharing and we are so glad you enjoyed your round at Jacaranda. We hope to see you again on your next visit to South Florida.
One of the best courses I have played in Florida
Beautiful layout, challenging to the point of scary, but well worth the visit.
We are glad to know that you found the course challenging and fun! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Excellent Course
This was one of the best courses we played while staying in Southern Florida this year. Tee boxes, fairways, rough and greens are all in great shape. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I enjoyed my round and only regret is that we did not have a day we could come back and play the East Course. Hopefully next year.
Thank you for the great review! We look forward to your next trip when you'll play the East Course.
One of South Florida’s Best Courses
Great course and it’s in the best shape I’ve seen in years.

Thank you! We look forward to providing you with a 5 star experience on your next visit.
A must play course
I played the East course once and the West course 3 times. I would have played the East a scind time but there was an outing on that 18, so it was unavailable. I played 36 each day. The club offered a replay rate of $55. Both courses were in great condition. The greens were really fast, but not unfair. Play your approach shots 10 yards short of the pin. The course uses a GPS system that gives the distance to the front and back of the green and the yardage to the pin. There are multiple sprinkler heads in the fairways that provide distances to the front, middle, and back of the green. I’m a 6 handicap, but I only hit my driver about 250 off the tee. I played the 3rd tee box and they provided challenging approach shots from the fairway. The practice facilities were adequate but a bucket of balls is not included in the price for playing. A bucket is $10. The putting green by the east 10th tee box was the best. The staff was friendly and the snack bar had great food at a reasonable price. There is a cart that comes around often and offers drinks and snacks. The one thing I did not like was having the rakes in the cart between the golf bags. I kept forgetting the rake when I was in the bunker.
Thank you for the thoroughly wonderful review. We are so glad you enjoyed Jacaranda and we hope to see you again soon.
Thank you so much for taking the time to rate Jacaranda. We look forward to providing you with a 5 star experience in the future.
