About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6563 yards
Slope 137
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.

Great Track!

Visiting from Michigan. Played with my 24-year old son. Course is a bit pricey but worth the incremental money. Paired with a couple of awesome older guys from England - shout out to Ian and Dave! Course and greens were in great condition. Nice layout and terrific foursome. Course has 3 separate 9’s. Played the South and East courses. Lots of water and some tight driving holes. Course is challenging but fair. Highlight was seeing my son eagle one of the Par 5’s. Course has multiple water/ice stations (with bathrooms) scattered throughout the different 9’s. Overall, a great day and would definitely play this course again on a future visit.

Great Staff!

Staff was very frindly and accomodating. Played North first then the South. North course was more target golf. Was in good shape and greens were smooth. Several blind shots. I would play it a little different next time however.

South course was more of what i would consider a normal setup. It was also in good shape and the greens were smooth. A lot less blind shots.

Lots of courses still to play in the area but i will be back!
