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.

Typical Florida resort course.

Greens rolled true. Not a fan of the layout. Many short doglegs.

Spanish Wells (9/4/2021)

So much rain that they closed the North course and the South course had just been aerated. That left us the East Course with some of the craziest hole layouts. But it was is solid condition with very little water. This is a course with some tight fairways, tricky doglegs and lots of blond holes. Play with a member to learn about it. Greens were moving fast and the pace of play early Saturday morning was fast! I like this place.

The course was in good shape and though it was hot they have convenient water and restroom locatiions. I do believe since they have 3 9-hole courses there could be improved signage about where to go from the check in spot, for those that have been there only a time or two.

Although the course is well manicured but the drainage is not adequate.

Nice

Outside of the typical membership guys who think you should bow down to them if you are not a member, love the coarse. No starters so members pull the crap they do at all clubs like this.

Great Course

Down here on vacation from Orlando and booked this course. The staff were awesome and friendly! It wasn’t rushed and packed like some other courses. Will definitely play again.

Really good shape

I play it a couple times every summer and it's in the best shape it's ever been for me. Greens are pure, slow, but rolling smooth and true. Will be back later this summer for sure.
