The Biltmore Golf Course
About
The Biltmore Golf Course in Coral Gables sits next to the beautiful hotel, an architectural masterpiece that was modeled after the Giralda Tower in Seville, Spain. Donald Ross designed the course in 1925 and the traditional layout has retained all of its original character. The golf course weaves through a series of canals that used to carry guests along in gondolas. The canals run alongside the lush fairways while towering banyan trees frame the elevated greens. Offering views of the historic hotel from nearly every hole, there are carts available but the golf course is worth the walk. The layout is popular not only for its historic scenery and verdant setting, but also for its playability. Over the years the Biltmore has been host to a number of professional golfers and celebrities ranging from Babe Ruth to Tiger Woods.

Always over charging
Staff is rude and always a problem when paying ; they always want to over charge you fees that according to them are disclose in small letters; doesn’t happen in any of the other mami courses ; a real nightmare
Best Golf Course in Miami
I played a few courses while on a trip to Miami. I played Doral, Miami Shores and Crandon. I think this was by far the best course of the bunch. The starter was a bit agitating but the rest of the staff was friendly. The course itself was in impeccable shape. Greens were perfect and rolled true. I used every club in my bag and found this to be not only challenging but fun!
Awful greens
The Biltmore has a nice layout with some interesting holes. Unfortunately they aerated the day of play and didn’t remove the excess sand from the greens. The crown of all the cups were days old and damaged. The fairways were in good shape as were the bunkers, but for me the greens make it break the experience.
Great first experience
Loved it. The course was in good shape, the greens and the tee boxes were quite well maintained, the fairways were good and sometimes excellent. The layout is what can be expected from an old course but stays a bit challenging on a few holes.
Nice lady at the pro shop, the starter guy (Mickael I think) was welcoming, very nice and fun to.
Only downside, the price of the set of club rental (80$), that’s in my opinion very expensive.
I’ll come back again if I have a chance.
Fair Track
Played this course for 1st time in 30+ years and it was still in decent shape. Typical Donald Ross course with small greens that rolled pretty true. Very busy day but everything was running on time and played in a little over 4 hours which wasn't bad for a weekend. Little pricey this time of year unless you can get hot deal on Tee off and able to use a promo code.
Always a great course, even better after the work it got
Great stuff all around! The Biltmore had its golf course “upgraded” recently and you can absolutely tell. But for added challenge, tough pin placements on fast greens! I wish more people would fix their pitch marks but that’s not on the course. Five stars as always
Perfect day at the Biltmore
Course is amazing , one of the best in Miami, got a great rate thru Golfnow , under $50., of course times at this rate are very limited and you will be playing between 10:00 and 2:30. greens were very fast ( you do not want down hill
putts) some were a bet scuffed up , farways and Tee boxes are well maintained . the only problem was that we were stuck behind a 6 some ,so pace of play was very slow.if you need lunch the Biltmors has 5 or 6 resturants to pick from if you need something on the course ,they have a cart girl with drinks snacks and sanwiches.. this course was renivated three years ago and returned to the original Donal Ross design , so expect crowned greens ,false fronts , lots of well placed bunkers,course is from 5800 to 7000 yards so it can be as hard as you want.One of the best Donald Ross courses in Florida.
Great course for any handicap
This is a great golf course, relaxing and fun. Wide fairways and fun for any player.
I played the white tees and I really enjoyed. Not too much water and forgiving for a golfer with my handicap.
The other players in my group, with better handicaps were very polite and great companion.
Ate and had a beer after the round, choice of beer and food was somewhat limited but staff was friendly.
My only bad comment was that I had to carry my bag all the way from the parking lot, a good 150 yards. That dropped my overall rating to 4 stars.
Otherwise it was great, plan to play there often when in Miami.
