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

It is a shame how they let this course deteriorate. It looks like they don’t water the grass and the greens ( what Greens?) are horrendous.

Don’t go to this course!
Bonaventure is terrible. They should be paying golfers to play there. None of the greens were even playable. No grass all under repair but not using temp greens! Don’t waste your money!!!
