This course was great

First time playing this course in March 2026. The course was in great condition and the pace of play was great. We had an early tee time so the clubhouse was not open until 8am. The carts had coolers with ice but wished they provided some water bottles like other courses did on my trip.

Enjoyable round on first 100F+ day of 2026

Played with 3 others who all had tee times after 12:30. We decided to group up and play as a foursome and we had a delightful time getting around the course and three and a half hours and never seeing another golfer on the course. I didn't realize how enjoyable golf can be on a course at 103° f. 🏌️‍♂️😎

Flat layout course.

We played on a Saturday in the peak season. We paid 74.00 each person with cart and range balls included. A 94 degree day for March, course was in very good condition. Greens and tee boxes really nice, the layout was all in between homes but with wide fairways on most holes. The only complaint was no cart person to purchase drinks or snacks, and also no water stations on the holes. One bathroom only. The 18th hole was not a good layout though even though I was able to make a par. I would play it again.

Gem in a gated community

Fairways, greens and most tee boxes in elite condition. Bunkers would’ve been fine had there not been (tire) tracks in many of them… Checkin process was easy because we prepaid. Obviously tons of regulars at a course like this so starter was a tad aloof during checkin..would love to come back here as the price point is very reasonable and a little course knowledge will go a long way during a return visit. Kudos Palm D Resort!

I would have given a higher rating but for the speed of play. Usually plays quicker, but not on this day, and no course marshal.
