GREAT COASTAL COURSE
Kiva Dunes never disappoints. Beautiful course in pristine condition. A true masterpiece in course layout and design. Unbelievably friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff. A complete and gratifying golf experience. You gotta play this course if you even have the remotest chance.
Kiva Dunes
Great course super challenging a little confusing on where tee boxes are but overall great place to golf
Good layout
Course just aerated greens the day before and back nine was closed. But liked the layout there were some challenging holes on the front. Cart girl was timely with drinks and nice. Hope to try to play again when conditions are better
KIVA DUNES DELIVERS AGAIN
Returned to Kiva Dunes for our annual guys trip and once again the course, staff, food and accomodations were perfect. Once on property, you won''t need to leave until it is time to go home. We had four unique dinners including steak, seafood and even pizza night. A group dinner at the new Kiva Beach Club is a great way to end the day. The golf course was in great shape and the greens were as fast as we had ever seen them and smooth as glass. We had a big rain storm late one afternoon and the course was dry the next day. Other courses in the area stay wet and cart path only. Not Kiva. Links golf on links land. I am going back in a couple of weeks and can't wait. One of kind place to stay and play.
Pricey
Rack rate of $122 - $145 is a little steep for this course. I was able to snag a $95 early morning rate on GolfNow. I think that was a reasonable rate for this course. I can’t believe it is the #1 rated Alabama course. It is a good resort style layout. Wide fairways, generous greens, excellent bunkers but kind of ho hum layout. Would play again with a discounted rate.
Awesome
Played this course on vacation to Orange Beach. I am more than pleased with this course. Beautiful layout, fast greens, and some water hazards. I loved it.
If you're there play it but don't go out of your way
The day started very interesting as I saw a nice large Rodent by the trash can. Girls behind the counter were not all that friendly but the starter was. Course layout was very underwhelming. Just nothing memorable about the course and def not the number 1 public course in the state of ALA.
Great Course
Played Kiva Dunes as part of a weekend trip to AL. The course exceeded expectations and was excellent in every way. Condition was fantastic for March and no issues with pace of play for an afternoon round. This course is a must play if you are in the area and a nice alternative to some of the RTJ trail courses.
Great course
Although the weather in January and February is hit and miss, we did get some sun and calm days. The day was a little cool but the course was in great shape for that time of the year. The fairways are narrow with lots of water. The greens were fast, which is common of winter golf. Overall, a fun course to play. Wii definitely come back
Rhode Islander
We come down and play 5 tracks every week for 6 weeks. Kiva always no. 1. Straight layout and fair multiple tees. Greens fast and true.
One of the best
A beautiful course, with great conditions, including true greens. Drains especially well, so after rain, this is still a course that can be played.
Great fairways and greens.
I love this course.
Always great conditions and the greens are always smooth and nicely cut.
Had tons of rain this week and the course drained extremely well.
Great value.
