Royal Pines Resort - Gold/Green Course

Royal Pines is a beautiful course that every day players can enjoy. Be prepared to plot your way through the holes.

Some very damp places but getting better.

All staff were very friendly and helpful.

The greens were cored and slow and bumpy. Should not be charging full price. Not sure they cored them so late that were in that condition during peak period of summer holidays. Fairways were ok

DO not join as a Member an classic example of Corporate Greed .

Membership does not mean you can play Golf when you want to ,

means you can play Golf when they have not booked out the Course for yet another Corporate Day , Tournament , School Group everybody can play except for the silly people who paid to be Members

Really excellent course. Little bit of casual water in some fairways but what to do after 20mm of rain overnight.

Greens are fantastic, really true and a good speed.

We really enjoyed the layout - you had to think strategically about tee shots and approach shots as there are some nasty high lipped bunkers.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The 19th hole had some food specials on. Decent pro shop.

Only downside was the range was closed so we couldn’t use the practice facilities.

Would I play it again ? 100%

It’s only 15 mins in an Uber from surfers and at 112$ a round (with cart) then great value IMO.

Save your money play elsewhere .

TOO busy OVER booked .

Back 9 Blue Very ordinary conditions

Every Bunker Out of play .

Rough knee high in places .

RESORT golf not for serious golfers .

If a course has sanded greens they should advise you and reduce the greenhouse fee..

Prior to playing the GN website showed no free spots.

On arrival, there were numerous spots available and I was on my own

It is a great golfing challenge. Especially when the Green and Gold courses are played together. The course was in excellent condition and the staff was very friendly.

This year I decided to play royal pines for my birthday and boy was a I let down. First off the fella giving us our cart had zero personality what so ever. Not a great start to the course. Get in the carts and still no gps carts at a "premium" golf course. Even the junk course meadowbrook has gps carts. We played Gold and blue course. Gold was nice nothing to complain about but blue course was just a let down. Weeds all over the green. Bindi all over the green. Bunkers weren't looked after. Fairways were patchy. It's like they forget they have another 9 hikes. For $115 I was disappointed. I won't return for a while.

Go to the glades instead

Great course, but pace of play was poor. We were waiting for groups ahead on every hole which was disappointing. Other than that, i can't fault it.

Immaculate in all areas, super fast greens, bunkers everywhere so quite challenging off the tee and approch shots. Good clubhouse for food and drinks.

My friend recommended me this course. I was very lucky to get the tee time on Sunday. Beautiful course layout mixing waters and trees. Very close from Surfers Paradise (less than 10minutes by Uber). Very friendly staff. Most of all, beers and wines after the play listening live music out side of the pro shop was definitely the day’s highlight! I highly recommend to try this course.
