About
Editor's Note: Course closed in 2018. See The Phoenician Golf Club listing.
The Desert/Oasis Course was the Phoenician's first 18 holes, which were later joined by the Canyon nine. The aptly named course may have desert surroundings but its numerous palm trees and blooming flowers will make golfers feel as though they've been transported to a tropical destination. Although all three golf courses cover only 150 acres, none of them feel cramped. Any lack of length is quickly forgotten after playing the creative challenges of the layout. The golf course offers plenty of variety that make it appealing to low and high handicappers alike. Dramatic elevation changes characterize the Desert nine, providing the breathtaking views that have led it to be the most requested course. The Oasis nine is memorable as well with water coming into play on six holes and a unique moat of sand on the par-4 finishing hole.

This course was beautiful ! The staff was very helpful and courteous. I would recommend anyone to play this course ! L Holmes
Amazing round!
Amazing course and great staff! Definitely will be coming back!
Incredible
Course was amazing. Staff was extremely welcoming and friendly.
The price is fairly steep, but you do get what you pay for, and this course, in my opinion, is one of the nicest and most well managed courses I’ve seen.
Appreciated the Marshall out helping groups stay at pace without feeling rushed. A gentle nudge along. Well done.
Cant wait to get back next year.
Its a can’t miss in my book
Aviara and Desert Willow( mountain ) Have always been two of the most beautiful courses I’ve ever played. If you know those courses it’s even better. Besides the aesthetics, everyone from the guy at the guard shack to the cart girl, to the bag-drop guys , to the starter. Or above and beyond what I expected.
Course was impeccable, greens were phenomenal and perfect picturesque fairways.
There is slight construction of structures along a few holes but The construction company does a great job providing safety personnel at all crossings and a nice job fencing it in to maintain the appeal of course.
Honestly that’s the only downside I could come up with, and I promise you, you won’t be inconvenienced.
Monday we play TPC stadium, but this place is it do not missing my book!
Phoenician 3/18/21
Nice facility. Breakfast was good. A little disappointed in the selection in the pro shop. Cart was great. Driving range was good.. Course was a great shape. Layout was quite fair. Played with a very nice young couple. All the staff were quite pleasant and accommodating. We would definitely play it again the next time we come to Phoenix.
Definitely not worth the high price
First, there was construction everywhere. Even the grounds crew did not stop with their trimmers etc which was very annoying. In addition, the grounds crew was also spraying which added to the noise pollution with airborne pollutants. Very very disappointing that a course of this caliber couldn’t figure out how to manage its course. Would not go again as the front nine was quite boring. The back nine was only marginally better. It was a definite waste of money and worse time. Sean
Beautiful golf course, terrible greens!
The layout and design of this course were beautiful! That being said I feel like the superintendent obviously doesn't care about the course! Tee boxes and fairways were mediocre and greens were awful! Greens were definitely biggest disappointment for me! Starter told us greens were rolling at 10 when in reality they were probably a 6 or 7 which is no fun! Until they address the greens or lower their fees I won't be back nor will I reccomend it to anyone! Way too overpriced for below average quality! Has massive potential to be great!
True dessert golf
Came from Seattle for a long weekend of dessert golf and this course nailed my expectation. Fantastic layout, beautiful scenery, and extremely nice staff. I will be back to play and probably stay.
Great Experience
Kudos to the staff, they did a phenomenal job!
Met a cool couple from MN which enhanced the experience.
Thanks!
