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.

I Recommend This Course
Location, Location, Location
The Phoenician is in a really beautiful area. The staff was great and the course was in wonderful condition. It is a short, resort style course. Our foursome had a blast. I would highly recommend this course. The back 9 is awesome, runs right along Camelback Mountain. I hope to go back someday.

Great resort course
Not super long, but great resort course with challenging holes. Greens and most fairways were in great shape for July. There were 2 holes with cart path only due to repairs, but overall very good!

Fun for Resort Golf
Overall loved the course. They layout was better than a lot of resort courses. Definitely a few fun holes. The conditions weren't the best I've seen, but the places where the Fairway was patchy never messed with my game. The greens were still solid. Bunkers nice sand. The amenities were top tier.

Great Scottsdale course
Always nice to play at Phoenician before flying home. They have only 2 showers, so I had to wait a little to get clean after round.

Fairway trouble
The fairways are in really bad shape! I’ve played this course for years and ithe fairways are definitely in need of some serious attention, especially for this price point. I really love this property and I hope they can fix it!
