About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 70
Length 6128 yards
Slope 127
Rating 70.1

Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2013. Check Bonaventure Golf Club listing for the remaining opened 18 holes.

Bonaventure West is also known as the Resort Course. This 6189-yard course has less water than the East Course and one extra par 3 on each nine. This is a Charles Mahannah layout, showing this renowned golf course architect at his best.

It has wide fairways and undulating greens. The golf course has lots of tropical vegetation and inhabited by wild parrots, blue herons, snowy egrets, and many other forms of wildlife. Fairways are generous, but hole design makes low scoring a challenge.

The course is perfectly suited for golfers of all skill levels

Course is in good condition

Overall the course is in good condition. Even if we played in 4hrs15mts. the foursome in front of us was slow as two holes were opened in front of them. In order to avoid this type of situation the presence of a Marshall would be beneficial.

Nice Turnaround

Played here many times over the years and I've seen its ups and downs. Course is in better shape , greens rolling true and in good shape . Pace of play on President's Day was very slow. Ranger didn't seem to be helpful. Cartgirl was no where to be found until 2 hours into the round. Overall for the price, it's a decent value. Keep it up and just improve on the pace of play and service.

What an improvement!

We were very impressed with the improvement on the grounds. The greens were fantastic as well as the fairways. We had stopped playing here because of the terrible course conditions.

Kudos to the new management. This will definitely be our regular home course

Decent

Nice layout. Lots of water, most on side but a few carries. Red tees a little long for ladies. I played gold and plenly long. Played in about 4:20. Tee times are close. Pace picked up after the first few holes.
