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.

Good Day At Lacaranda
A little slow at times but still good day.Everything was well groomed.
A lovely day
The staff was over the top friendly and helpful. The fairways and tee boxes were in outstanding shape - especially considering the time of year - down here many courses are "played out" by early June from the winter season, but this course was VERY well taken care of. Unfortunately they are dealing with some kind of virus on and around the greens, so they were in mediocre shape. Overall it was a lovely day. Great touch screen GPS too. I definitely recommend the course.
greens
Played West and greens were sanded recently. rest of the course in excellent shape. Played after 2.
Greens Decent, Course Great
The course itself is in beautiful shape (i.e. tee boxes, fairways, rough). However, the greens have seen better days. This is not entirely the course's fault as it is summer in south Florida, but the greens are definitely spotty in areas. They were very hard and would not hold a golf ball. We got stuck behind a foursome of slow players with no etiquette. They were holding up the entire course. We even replayed a par 3 to give them time to get ahead of us and we still caught up to them two holes later. There was no ranger in sight to complain to. Anyway, besides the greens and the slow play, the course is in nice shape. However, there are probably other courses in the general area in better shape at this time.
This course is well maintained.
The fairways are like carpets. Great course to play.
Tough course
The wind was very stiff and it made the course much tougher than it needed to be. The greens roll pure and the fairways are very nice. I enjoyed the course, but the pace was extremely slow and could have been better if a Ranger had come around and moved people along.
Worth the drive!
I'm on a holiday in Miami and only wanted to play a nice course which wouldn't cost $100+ like Doral. A 40 minute drive is all it took to find it. Nice, friendly staff, well maintained course, and greens that roll like felt. I'll definitely keep Jacaranda on my list when I visit the area again.
Very nice layout....beautiful course
Greens were recently verticut but rolled true and fast. Fairways were awesome and general course conditions were excellent. practice facilities were very good. Pin placement on some holes were a little difficult and would allow for some extra puts for players. Will play very soon again!..................
Jacaranda East
The course was challenging. The greens were a little worn but rolled well. It was a good golf course. I would play it again. Would be better if $69 instead of $89
Great course
The West course at Jacaranda is just so well maintained it is always a pleasure to play there. Absolutely worth it.
Excellent course (East)
I paid $69 on GolfNow and felt it was worth every penny. The course is in excellent condition and challenging. The tee boxes were in great shape, the fairways were well maintained and the greens were fast and rolled true. We golfed with our wives and they commented how nice their tee boxes were and that the course was a pleasure to play.
Very beautiful law out
No sand in the bunkers, and green is so so, the fairway is perfect.
OK+++
Very nice way to end season!
Aiming back to Canada
JAcaranda West- Good S Florida golf experience
One of the better public courses in South Floida, fairways, tee boxes in great shape. Greens were good but not quite as fast as when we played in the past.
nice fairways and very charming staff
for me and my wife, the best golf course quality-price in Miami area...we love it and come back next year....
Jacaranda West
Great course with beautiful fairways and bunkers, and fast greens. The course was tough but fair and allowed for good scores if you kept the ball in play. My only critisicm would be the greens had some small dead patches from old ball marks but they were smooth, fast and rolled true. The staff were really friendly and Matt in the proshop was very helpful - I'll definitely be back many times.
Simply beautiful golf course
We plaid a super nice golf course, the price a bit high for the season but it was worth it.
The fairways were nicer than many greens in other courses.
The green very fast and very tricky.
Plaid from the gold and you don't take à driver on every par 4 and 5. You have to place your ball on many holes.
Beautiful day on a marvellous golf course.
Good price for nice course
Good layout for any type of golfer.
Very funny to play and condition are perfect.
Great
It is a great course and we recommande it to anyone.
