The Phoenician Golf Club

This course is amazing. For middle of the summer conditions this placed looked like a lush green resort course. Fairways were wonderful greens were not hard as rocks all though a little slow they were smooth and running maybe an 8 I could play there over and over again

For mid August the course was in great condition. Greens held nicely and rolled well. Only complaint would be cartpath only (they said due to weather conditions) which was unnecessary. The course was dry. This decision slowed play considerably. We had to wait on every hole.

One of the premiere public courses in the greater Phoenix area and it did not disappoint. Layout was great. The fairways and greens were long so I assume a mow is coming soon, but none the less a great golf experience.

The pace of play was very poor, but rumor had it that there was a soon to expire Groupon that many people redeemed this day, so I wouldn't anticipate it always being backed up.

One thing I would be conscious of is their beverage cart hospitality. The bev cart working during our round apparently was friends with a foursome who was playing in front of us and eventually behind us. After being told to pass them (by the bev cart attendant) on hole 2, we did not receive very good service there after as she was in an immediate hurry to reach her friends, now playing behind us. At hole 2, we were held up for several minutes while friends and cart girl chatted it up. When approached, they claimed that the group in front of them was still teeing off on #3. Even though they themselves had still not completed hole #2. We were instructed to pass them at that point.

Overall good experience. Bev cart is a tiny element to the golf experience, but it did keep this rating from a perfect 5. Will play here again.

This is a shorter course and some drivable par 4's but it plays well. Had a great time and fairways and greens are well taken care of.

It was a pleasure being a golfer at this site. Treated well and they really cared to make sure you were hydrated with waters for everyone and coolers with ice filled and towels to keep cool by dipping in the ice water.

For a resort, Troon managed course, I expect more. They give you two bottles of water to start and we only see a cart girl once on each 9. The drinking fountains have warm water and the pace of play was atrocious. 4 hours and nearly 40 minutes is unacceptable in the summer. Very disappointing to say the least.

Have played here a few times before - always top notch - the land, facilities and all. This time got to tee off early in AM on a gorgeous Friday - minus humidity. Played the Desert and Canyon - never played the Desert nine. Definitely the best combo of the three. Course was in amazing shape - Canyon to me is still most challenging slightly over the Desert - to each their own though. Cart girl was cool, and decently frequent. Only complaint, no water jugs/coolers anywhere - huge bummer and almost needed in AZ summers. Other courses that have it - have a leg up. But that is only flaw in my mind. On both those courses, you make your way up around the mountain in various ways, and see awesome views of the city. Will forever be a player here - now get the water coolers!!!

Lived in Az for 30+ years and it was the first time playing the Phoenician. Fun course good conditions greens were ok,not very fast but everything does break away from camelback MTN if u have the opportunity to fore caddie some of the blind holes it's worth it. Pace of play was excellent but the day we played it was very humid out and being so close to the MTN there was no breeze to make it comfortable.

The greens were in excellent condition for this time of year in AZ

Great round, classy place. I'll be back.

The golf course is located in the middle of a very high class resort/spa. Which is reflective in the price of the lunch at their Burger Bistro. There were no hamburgers on the menu for less than $20. That being said, it was one of the best burgers that I have ever eaten:) The staff were very professional, the clubhouse is beautiful, even the range balls were first class. I paid $20 including cart to play here, but you get the feeling by the surrounding's and the golf course, that come October, you would be forking over at least $150. The golf course itself is interesting, there are many fairway bunkers that you have to thread the needle on, at right about 230 from the championship tees. There are a few really cool short holes with hazards to be thought about, that give you various options on how to play the hole. The course is well manicured, the water hazards(including a waterfall) are clear and beautiful, and the greens are straightforward, nothing tricky about them. Very enjoyable over all experienc

Great value and great staff

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The course was in great shape, very beautiful layout and very challenging. The staff was excellent. Definitely will play course again.

Staff was really helpful. Friendly and courteous. Oasis 9 was kind of rough shape, especially the greens. A number of large bare spots in the green. Pace of play was good. We got caught behind a slow group the last few holes and the marshal asked them to let us through. They elected to speed up, which was ok.

The best resort course in the Valley of the Sun. Played the Oasis and Canyon. Both offered challenging holes, as well as forgiving holes. You will enjoy this venue/track when played early in the summer. In the fall, you will have to pinch yourself. It is heavenly.

Always wanted to play Phoenician but cost prohibitive most of the time. Found a hot deal on GolfNow for $23.00 per 18 holes so finally got the chance. Excellent course for a weekend hacker like me. Great layout, incredible views, and challenging holes. Having so much fun, I hardly noticed the 110 degree heat.

I really like this course, especially in the summertime. They keep most of the course green, and the greens are usually smooth. The staff is great, you can tell they care and know what it's like to play in the Arizona summer.

perfect condition, beautful course...my new fav course in Phoenix!!

I REALLY LIKED THE COURSE, BUT THE DRINK LADY SEEMED TO SIT IN ONE PLACE & IT WAS HOT & WE NEEDED HER MORE OFFEN. MORE WATER ON THE COURSE IS NEEDED WHEN IT GETS THAT HOT OUT THERE.

What great course. Very beautiful course with fun and challenging holes. Recommend this to anyone looking for a course to play with multiple skill levels in your group.
