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.

Canyon Course...tee off towards Camelback Mtn. Photo submitted by u000001276894 on 09/24/2012
Very nice course.
Enjoyable course to play that is well maintained. Some very interesting holes and incredible views. I am looking forward to playing here again.
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.
slow play is an issue
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.
Great resort course
Weather was perfect and so was the condition of the course. Pace of play was somewhat slower than I would have liked but otherwise a thoroughly enjoyable day. Staff and amenities were super.
Superb
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.
Flight of the Phoenix
This course much more than a simple resort course. Very interesting.topography and a lot of elevation changes.
Best in the Valley
Great course. Very enjoyable , the views from the tee boxes are incredible and my guess also enjoyed playing the course
Greens were very good for January.
Course layout was confusing in places. One of staff in pro shop was less than friendly especially compared with other staff. Good pace of play. Overall, enjoyable.
impressive
Excellent couse. Played Desert and Canyon. Slowed by 5 some ahead of us. Found putting difficult.
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.
great course and scenery
helpful staff, beautiful resort and golf course. GolfNow app was responsible for us playing this great course.
Great day to play
Course was in great shape as always. Fairways well cut and greens fast.
The course was excellent!!!
I was very impressed with everything at The Phoenician. From the pro shop staff to the starters and everyone else at the Club. I really enjoyed my round of golf and we finished in 4 hours. Also, it was a perfect weather day as well.
racist cartboy
Don't play here if your skin color or eye shape is different from the haoles.
Very Pretty Corse
Very pretty course in good condition. Staff was professional. Could work on friendliness a little.
Nice resort course, but rather short.
Played the Desert/Canyon combo. The first thing you notice as you drive onto the property is the remarkable grounds. It's a nice resort. The course is not long, I was paired with two other singles and they wanted to play from the gold tees. I would have been better off playing the championship tees. Some cool par 3's with big elevation drops. The tee boxes should have been in better shape for the money it cost to play there though. We must have gotten lucky because the pace of play is supposed to be 4.5 hours and we were done in under 4.
Desert/Canyon 12/30/15
I played as a single but was paired up with a 3 some, played only nine holes (Desert) because I had previous dinner plans. Pace of Plays was busy with only a short wait at times. I had a great time and will play this course again, will recommend to friend.
