About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Style Traditional
Par 71
Length 6518 yards
Slope 135
Rating 76.0

The Phoenician Golf Club reopened in the fall of 2018 after a massive redesign and renovation by Scottsdale-based architect Phil Smith. The new 18-hole layout replaces the original 27-hole routing. Every hole is new, featuring TifEagle grass greens and tees, fairways and rough that are 419 Bermuda grass. The golf shop has been expanded as well, and the Club Car golf carts have been outfitted with the "Shark Experience" - a new golf technology with a high-definition touch screen and built-in speakers for playing music and watching live sports, news and entertainment, along with GPS yardage.

Absolutely loved playing at the golf course at The Phoenician Golf Club. Beautifully designed, extremely well maintained, and such an interesting layout from start to finish. Every hole felt unique and the scenery made the experience even better. Highly recommend to anyone golfing in Scottsdale!

Avid golfer

Course is beautiful staff was even better. Greens were very slow. Rangers need to push slow groups better keep a nice place 4:45 to long mainly because of one group. By 16, 17 3 groups on one hole by 18 there were 4 groups on18.

Epitome of resort golf

Immaculate conditions from tee box to pin. Friendly staff. Extra firm bunkers as one would expect for desert golf. Just adjust your technique for those. Forgiving layout. Only gripe would be $11 beers but that’s what you get at the epitome of resort golf :).
