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.

Above expectations

We played East/North and loved the layout, conditions, deal price, and staff.

Staff greets you in the parking lot with cart, handle clubs, towels and explanations of the course, amenities and all. We loved it so much we are looking at possibility moving there as we love Bonita Springs.

Keep in your rotation

We have a condo in the Bonita Springs area and spend 6-8 weeks there. We have rotated through most of the public/ public-private courses in the Naples/Estero/Ft Myers area. While Tiberon is our favorite, for 25% of the cost Spanish Wells is a good track to keep in the mix. We played North/South- with a notable difference in the tight layout of North. South was more playable and enjoyable. Will try East next. Greens rolled well, fairways in good shape. Check in staff awesome.

Love it!

Have no complaints - course played was East 9 holes then North 9 holes. Fairways we’re all in excellent shape as well as the greens.

Greens were super fast but we haven’t had rain in many weeks.

We really enjoyed playing here and will play again.

Had fun playing this course!

I had never played this course before. The conditions were decent and the fairways rolled nicely. Although the courses were rated higher than the courses I usually play, I thought they were much friendlier and I played well on them. We played the South and East courses. The starter was able to get us off a bit earlier than our tee time. The pace was a bit slow, but not bad. I would come back!
