Rating 72.6

Spanish Wells Golf & Country Club in Bonita Springs offers tennis and bocce courts, a fitness center, and 27 of the most picturesque holes in southwest Florida. The holes are divided into three nines: the North, South, and East; that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The East/North Course combines the longest nine and the shortest nine. Towering pines and palms as well as mature oak trees cover the entire course. Almost just as abundant is the water, which makes an appearance on almost all of the club's holes. The golf course begins with one of the few holes at the club where water doesn't come into play. Although trees line both sides of the fairway on this dogleg right par 4, the landing area off the tee is generous.

Nice course for getting in a quick 9

The course overall was good. The first 2 holes had a temporary green, which we were not made aware of. All the other holes were in good shape for this time of year

Challenging nice course

We booked the course for a late afternoon tee time. In Florida it doesn’t cool down much in the afternoon. The course has been improved so much since we played a few years ago. The course is very challenging with narrow fairways and many dog legs. Overall the course was in very good condition. The employees were awesome and were very welcoming. The greens were slow but were in great condition. We loved the course and the surrounding neighborhood. We are playing it again this week. We played North and east courses. Great job Spanish Wells!

Pace of Play Slow vutNice Course

Found the pace of play a little slugish and we were backed up 70% of the time. Overall the course is well maintained and the staff is great. Just need to work on setting pace of play.

Had a great time playing this course. I’m not usually a fan of golf courses built in housing communities however it felt fairly open and was not as intimidating as some others I’ve played. The course conditions were incredible and the staff treated us like royalty from start to finish. Will play this course every time I’m in the area.

Smelly

Due to lack of rain, the ponds had dried up causing the entire course to smell like dead fish. We would not choose Spanish Wells again.

Impressed

First impressions of the staff were great. Everyone from the bag drop attendees to the Marshall were very professional and courteous. Overall the course was in amazing shape, greens were cut to perfection. I will be back to beat my score of 91. I played the South and East courses.
