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.

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.

First Time Playing

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.
