Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6500 yards
Slope 136
Rating 72.4

The 27 holes at Spanish Wells Golf & Country Club sprawl through a landscape of swaying palms, towering pines, and mature live oaks. Located in Bonita Springs, the club offers some of the most scenic holes in southwest Florida. The numerous water features are difficult to ignore, coming into play on almost every one of the club's holes. The holes are played in three 18-hole combinations. The South/North golf course is a challenging but fair layout that features strategically placed bunkers and several doglegs. The club's signature hole is the North nine's second. This scenic par 3 plays to a well protected green that features a bunker on the right, and out-of-bounds to the left. In addition to the three golf courses there is a practice facility with a driving range, pitching and chipping areas, and two large putting greens.

Wasn’t made aware that the course was under repair, and only found out when we started golfing. At the least I should have been informed before I paid or given a discount

Awful Experience

Very Unprofessional. Booked our foursome on their website on a Monday for a Thursday tee time. Received my confirmation immediately by email. Wednesday night I received a tee time reminder by email. Thursday morning we drive 30 minutes to the course to find out it’s closed due to rain and has been closed since Monday. No email sent to tell us it’s closed. Not a great first impression.

Love this course when I visit.

We like to beat the heat and play in the afternoon around thunderstorm time. Played 3 times on my trip with no major rain outs. Just cloudy and breezy and the best way to play florida golf in the summer. Greens and course overall continue to be great. Course layout isn’t spectacular but it’s fun and a great value.

Twilight round surprise

Snagged a 3:30pm for $30 at a course I’ve never played, wish I lived in the area it would be my new home. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Course was in amazing shape. 4 iron off the tee will be your friend.

North and East courses are excellent

Played here again because we had such an enjoyable time the first go. Played the North again and the East for the first time. The North was in really good shape and a challenge. The East course was in excellent shape and a pleasure to play. Staff is extremely nice, I really like playing here.

Formidable!

Played Spanish wells often times before when we are on vacation in summer but this year we've made the best experience. First time played the North course. Unusual Layout for this area with doglegs and challenging holes. Expecting rain showers when we started but they did not come, so we could play the front nine like a private course. Also the back nine on the east course were well maintained, greens soft, tee boxes and fairways on a top Level, staff at the Pro Shop and at the bag drop super friendly. Had a blast of fun and enjoyed every minute. Highly recommended!
