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.

Very Disappointed!

We were traveling by boat with the plan of staying in Miami until the 14th. Having played this course before we decided to use Golf Now to book T times for 7 (4 men and 3 wives). On Tuesday afternoon (12th) one mile outside of the Miami inlet entrance, on of the boats had an emergency... taking on 13 inches of water in the engine room, engine and bilge alarms sounded, but both engines were lost. We were able to get our friend into the Miami Coty Marina safely.. his boat will be towed out ASAP. The stress of almost sinking at 54 ft. yacht and trying to salvage engines was a stressful and all consuming experience. We all had to change plans and depart on our boat this morning, unable to play as we had planned. I tried to call Golf Now and eventually had to communicate through the App. There was no chance to explain the situation... only an immediate NO REFUND message. After spending what felt like an hour trying to cancel, we agreed to simply walk away, eat the cost and move on. We were not looking to cancel for a frivolous reason and would have at least appreciated a credit toward the future. We also tried calling the club directly and they said they could not help with a T time made online. This was a horrible experience on top of an already bad day. Non of us will use this service again.

Tremendous Golf Course - One Of The Best In South Florida!

This has become my favorite golf course in the area to play at! I've tried dozens of courses in the South Florida area and the Biltmore Course is the best in terms of layout, course conditions, value and difficulty.

The staff has always been amazing too me and the location of the course is in a very nice area with nice homes surrounding the course.

Absolutely worth $100+ and will continue to play here 1-2 times per week!

Very Busy

Good course in Coral Gables - Miami. Condition of course was good considering the number of rounds being played. I am NOT a proponent of allowing walkers and riders to play at the same time as it makes for extremely long rounds and wait times.

What a great course

The Ross design is awesome! Some of the par fours from the blue tees need a good drive as they run over 450+yds so pick your tee boxes wisely. The greens run fast and true even as they had been recently dressed. Overall a great place to play and practice. I will be going back!

Nice, But a Bit Overpriced

The course is nice and well maintained. A fair amount of water and sand. But probably not worth the price they charge.
