South/East at Spanish Wells Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Located in the heart of southwest Florida, Spanish Well Golf & Country Club in Bonita Springs offers 27 holes of championship golf amidst towering stands of palms and pines. The holes are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The South/East Course combines the longest of the three nines. Water characterizes the golf course, coming into play on nearly every hole. There are also strategically placed bunkers and a few tricky doglegs to watch out for. The layout presents a challenging, but fair test. The golf course finishes with one of the club's prettiest holes, a par 4 with mature trees that run along the entire right side of the fairway until they reach the lateral water hazard. Past the bunkered green, the clubhouse and the colorful surrounding flowerbeds serve as the backdrop.

Golf course or backyard? Photo submitted by Jimmy3044469 on 06/14/2018
The course was in decent shape
The greens were quite good
Staff on the bags were quite fun and entertaining.
Pricey round though.
No accountability
Twice we were behind foursomes each with her own cart. Both front and back nines. No ready golf being played. 5 hour round. Play was so slow two open holes ahead. Ranger could not move them when asked, he said they complained about us being too close. No accountability. Bar seating for beer and lunch was under serviced, kept having to ask for simple things like silverware. Play here twice a season, very disappointed this trip!
Good course friendly staff
Overall, I enjoyed my round. The first impression is great. The welcome team is friendly and set my clubs up on my cart and had me all set to go. The Pro Shop staff also add to the experience by making check in quick and easy and adjusting a tee time for me so I could join a threesome.
The course wasn't perfectly manicured but was in good shape between the tee and green. Some of the Tee boxes and greens were not in great shape. Overall, the course is challenging but fair. I will play again.
Poorly maintained course
For the price, this course is a very poor value. Greens, fairways and tee boxes were all in terrible condition. No GPS on the carts. There are far better values with other courses in the Naples/Ft. Myers ares.
Good course
Pace of play was not great and greens and tee boxes need some work but otherwise a fine course
Fairways
Keep ball in fairway ; rough falls off to water on many holes.
Good pace of play
East and South nines good layouts. North NOT my favorite at all. Tight, Doglegs make for some tough tee shots
Greens usually very good but dry and hard today.
Good pace of play.
As everywhere in Naples area green fees getting out of hand.
FLGrandpa
OK, expensive but available and a pleasant round on a beautiful January day!
Tough conditions
North course was not in very good condition and South course was extremely wet due to overnight rains
