Great course great staff

Beautiful course that is in great shape and very friendly and helpful staff. It is a very fair course that can challenge all levels but also is not to difficult or punish you to much for a bad shot. Greens are quick and very challenging, but they are big. Enjoyed our time here greatly!

Amazing Greens!

Hands down one of the greatest courses you’ll play.. period! Has a PGA feel, greens roll really fast and true, fairways are like hitting off a sponge and the views are awesome! You’ll probably see an alligator sunning somewhere on the course and depending on where the pins are you’ll cuss the greens as such as you’ll praise them.. (but in a good way) all in all, you’re crazy not to play if you’re within 30 minutes of it.

What a course!

Have been wanting to play Kiva Dunes for a long time. What a great course! Played in winds that were at least 35mph, wide fairways made tee ball very playable, putts were being blown all over the place. What a fun day. Quite the experience and would recommend this course to anyone. Can’t wait for the opportunity to play here again.

Perfect Greens

The whole experience from beginning to end was great. The staff was wonderful and the greens were the best I've ever played on . The only small disappointment was that there were no water views anywhere on the course. Disappointing since you are at the beach. We would have loved a few holes with a beach or bay view. Otherwise perfection.

Good course but no hole indicators

The golf course was very good, somewhat challenging, After a night of heavy rain there where some puddles on the fairways and some flooded bunkers but in general excellent with really nice greens.

It was the first time I played on this course and it does not have any mark or indicator of the holes making it difficult to identify the tee box of the next hole.

the distance markers from the tee boxes were badly positioned, sometimes the withes ahead of the blue ones and some times the other way around.

Great Gulf Shores Golf Course

Excellent golf experience. Challenging course, but very fair. Loved the layout and challenges. Plenty of sand and water. Greens were very fast and undulating for sure, but ran true and we quickly were able to adjust to the speed. Big shout out to Shane and Grayman, two local regulars who we were lucky enough to be paired with…and who generously provided tips on every hole! Highly recommend - great time!

Enjoyable course

This was our first time playing Kiva Dunes. Course is well maintained. Greens were lightening fast. Beautiful course. A lot of long holes. Quite a few sand traps (which my ball happened to enjoy going to the beach). Sand traps well maintained with soft sand.

Watch out for the wildlife (gators/snakes in particular). The gators were sunning on the banks of several of the ponds.

Employees were very friendly and helpful.
