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.

The course is very well maintained..

Can't think of any negatives about our experience at the Phoenician. Price was right thanks to Golf now and we were treated very well by the staff.

The course is in excellent shape and the pace of play was perfect. The course was challenging but very fair. The risk to reward shots really are important here.

Immaculate with great views

Course was in great condition, greens rolled well, par 3's very challenging with water and variety of distances, liked risk/reward par 5's. Nice views of Camelback and city from above. Only negative is only 6200 yards from back but enjoyed the conditions and layout. Definitely looking forward to a return trip.

Scenic and Fun to play

Some great views here on the course that sits right against Camelback mountain. We played the Desert/canyon nines.

Nice practice facility, good people , pace of play was fine. A couple downhill par 3's the slope rating on the range finder helped out. A couple holes i found a little tricky being the first time there. This is definately a placement type course. Happy Hr on the patio is a must.

Beautiful day, beautiful course

I was pleased the staff at the Phoenician treated us as regulars even though we got a great deal through golf one.com. The course was beautiful, well manicured, the pace was relaxing, and not too difficult. I highly recommend this course to tourists in the Scottsdale area.

Course is in great shape but pace of play is a problem As it's a resort course, the player assistants don't move people along.

Everything about this course wonderful - greens and fairways were fabulous, pace of play was excellent, and viewpoints were out of sight! Each course also had some challenging but fun holes. If you get a chance to play this one, don't miss out.

Enjoyable Round

I enjoy playing this course. The views are fantastic and guaranteed to please. It is a short course but has it's challenges and keeps your interest.On this day I played the Desert and Canyon courses, both were in top condition. The pace of play was excellent. (3.30 min) If you can get a rate under $80.00 jump on it.

Perfect for medium to high handicap

Shorter course with plenty of landing room area for t shots but difficult enough to satisfy the lower handicap golfers. the Fairways and Greens were in great shape. Very nice practice facilities. Will return for sure.
