West at Jacaranda Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

Great Features
Played the west coarse. Very nice for a high handicapper Staff was exceptionally nice and helpful. I would play again when the seasons over.
West Course in good shape
The west course is in good shape. The greens are quick but true. It was cold for south Florida, in the 50's when we teed off, so not a lot of golfers out.
We are so glad to hear you braved the cold snap and enjoyed your round at Jacaranda. We hope to see you again soon. Thank you for taking to time to post a review.
Thank you for taking the time to rate Jacaranda. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a 5 star experience soon!
Disappointed
I flew from toronto to Florida for a quick golf getaway. heard some good thing about this course. I was extremely impressed with the course condition especially after Hurricane hit Florida not too long ago. I was a single player and started my round around noon time. By the 5th hole, I caught up to the foursome in front of me. I followed proper golf etiquette, stayed back and did not hit my shots until they were out of my range or until they finished the hole. (BTW, Not once did they wave me through)
Finally on the 9th hole, I decided to skip the hole and get ahead of this group since I didn't want them to feel rushed.
Well, one of the guy in the foursome, who is apparently a member caught up to me on the 11th hole and started yelling at me saying that I'm not allowed to pass them without their permission. I explained that I did it out of courtesy and didn't want them to feel rushed with me behind them. He started accusing me of not knowing my golf etiquette and he just wouldn't stop. I didn't even mentioned how they were so slow and never even attempt to wave me through. I kept my cool and just drove away. I was so angry and upset that I didn't even finished my round. I went to complained to the pro shop and all they did was say sorry and gave me some tees and ball markers. Jacaranda is a beautiful course but this member really ruined my trip!
We appreciate the positive review of the golf course conditions especially given your negative experience with another golfer on the course. We try to pair singles up in order to avoid these types of situations but sometimes it does not work out that way. We sincerely apologize for that encounter and we hope we'll have an opportunity to host you again. If you decide to come back to Florida please email Kasey kasey@jacarandagolfclub.com to set up your tee times and please reference this message. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you so much for the 5 star rating. We hope to see you again soon!
Thank you for taking the time to rate Jacaranda. See you soon!
We appreciate you taking the time to rate the West Golf Course and we look forward to providing you a 5 star experience in the future!
The course was in good condition for the amount of rain that fell the night before. Cart path only but this was expected before we arrived. There was wet areas around the course but you could move away from these with the casual water rule.
Thank you for taking the time to review Jacaranda. We are glad you enjoyed the course despite the heavy rainfall we received the night before. We look forward to providing perfect conditions for your next trip!
Great golf course but we had a blow out tire on the golf cart. The front tires where almost finish when we start. The noise was terrible so much that my wife had an headache and we lost about 20 minutes. This hi end golf course should not have some golf carts in bad shapes.
Thank you so much for the great review of the golf course itself. We apologize for the issue you had with your golf cart. We are receiving a brand new fleet of carts on Monday but unfortunately that was not in time for your round. We sincerely hope you will return so you may enjoy the new carts!
Thank you for the excellent course rating! We appreciate the feedback and look forward to your next visit.

Thank you for the 5 star rating! We are glad you enjoyed Jacaranda and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
J'ai aimé plus le West que le East, mais les 2 sont très beaux.
Thank you! We appreciate you taking the time to rate Jacaranda and we hope to see you very soon.
All was great except no drivers on the range. Over $9 for 30 balls is steep
Thank you for reviewing our golf course! There should be 40-45 range balls in a bucket.
We do have to rotate the tee box in order to keep the range in shape throughout the year and unfortunately that does mean we have to be "Irons Only" some days of the week. We sincerely hope to see you again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to rate the West Golf Course at Jacaranda. We hope to see you again very soon.
Jacaranda
Definitely one of the best courses in southeast Florida as well as being maintained like a high end private course. Think I could play here everyday and never get tired of it!
Wow! What a great review. We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share your experience at Jacaranda with us. See you soon!
Def Worth a Round
Fantastic layout, very good conditions, professional staff
Would def go back again especially getting a golf now rate
Thank you so much for the great. review. Course conditions and customer service are our two main focuses at Jacaranda and it's always nice to know when we are succeeding!
Course is in great shape overall. Played behind a five dome for about three holes until we skipped a hole to get past the group. Talked to the ranger later and he said they were supposed to play 4 and 1 because two of their players were late.
Thank you so much for taking the time to rate and review Jacaranda. We are glad you enjoyed the course conditions but sorry you were stuck behind a 5-some. We do not allow 5-somes on the course because maintaining an aggressive pace of play is one of our top priorities.
Thank you for taking the time to rate Jacaranda. We hope to have the opportunity to offer you a 5 star experience soon.
