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.

Not interesting or special

This is an expensive $170 resort course. It is not special; regardless of the high price. We also paid $50 for mediocre Callaway rental clubs. The wedge had seen way better days. The rest was OK at best. I would prefer rentals that at least give you a choice of mallet or blade. The carts were nice and the staff were awesome. The course was not green at all. It also plays short and was just not that interesting.

Amazing

The course was in great shape and the layout is spectacular. It’s a long drive from hole 9 to 10 but when you get there take it all in. The views on the back 9 are what Arizona golf is all about. It was a great morning of golf and will visit again on my next trip.

Course in Very Good Condition

In general, course was in very good shape, particularly given the AZ summer heat. Tee boxes = excellent, fairways = very good; greens = very good (a little bumpy on a few holes); sand traps = generally good, though depth of sand was inconsistent; pace of play = very good (3:40 for threesome); value = very good (with TeeOff rewards). Major construction project detracted from serenity in front 9. Plan ahead if using distant driving range, as access is through construction site and no cart path is in place, delaying movement to/from. Chipping and putting practice area was excellent. Water stops along the way, as well as multiple places where bottled water is available. Challenging but fair course. Hope to return soon.

A disappointment. Grass is very average. You play next to the highway and houses on the first nine. A lot of construction. Greens average. Overall Phoenician is very average and the price high. If you pay more than $45 a round, you are overpaying. I can think of 20 courses in the area better than this one with prices much more reasonable.
