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

Not as bad as everyone says

It’s definitely in worse shape than I’ve seen but it’s still a great layout long tough course with lots of water. 3 stars if they fix the greens 4 stars

First and last time

I have never seen greens in worse conditions. The course was unplayable on certain holes and should be closed or remodeled for renovations to make it a real course where you can count all your shots without worrying about a 10 foot bunker in the middle of the green.

Poor maintenance

This course gets worse every year and I have a hard time understanding why improvements aren’t made. It could only enhance the course and allow for an increased rate for golf play.
