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.

One of few public accessible in Bonita Springs area

Decent track, good value at $109 hot deal for the area compared to the public exec par 3 courses. Pace of play was roughly 4 hours. Didn’t get too backed up until last 2 holes of north course. Watch your distance off of tees - lots of short holes on east course. Should have moved back a set of tees.

Reliable

Always good condition for amount of play. Greens were a little slow. Good turf in fairways. No real problem with pace of play. Value is the average for SW Florida public course which as you know is getting stupid silly. I do recommend.

Golf at Spanish Wells

OK course. North course has some awful holes that need to be redesigned. South and East courses are much better layouts.

Fun course

Played the whites because that’s what playing partners wanted. A little short but fun course in decent shape. Hole #7 on the North course is a “fishhook” layout which I really didn’t like.
