The Links Course at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is the ultimate in risk-reward golf. The architect, Tom Jackson, routed five holes along the bay and then wound the course inland across rolling undulations. In order to prevail against the blustery Gulf Coast winds, accuracy and proper club selection are essential, making it a true shot-maker's golf course. In addition to being right along the shores of the Choctawhatchee Bay, the Baytowne Marina serves as a backdrop to the course, providing even more stunning views of the Emerald Coast. Of the four championship golf courses that Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort offers, the Links is one of the original two and also one of the most popular. The layout offers a unique links experience that all skill levels can enjoy, especially since it features four different sets of tees.

Golf cart retriever boy

This kid was the rudest kid that I have ever met

He was rushing me to give up my cart while I was trying to teach my daughter how to putt.

It was 6:00 and they were still open

He talked back to me with an attitude and wouldn’t be quiet when I was speaking . They should teach them how to speak in those situations. I told him that there was watermelon rhines and trash in the ice chest and that I had to clean it. he said that”It wasn’t his problem “

Lots of water

Water on or along 14 holes keeps the game interesting. Wind was a factor. Enjoyed the track.

Nice time

Course overall was in good condition. The greens at the Links course were head and shoulders better than Baytowne. Several of the sand traps could use some more sand. Several tee boxes need some attention and grass. Had a nice time.

Like the course

Only issue was yardages on the cart GPS were all wrong. Probably cost me four or five strokes and two balls in the water.

Staff were all friendly and helpful. Course conditions were good to very good. Layout requires premium accuracy.

Beautiful Holes

I think Links is a fun course to play with some beautiful holes on the bay. Good test. Reasonably good shape for a resort course. Nice staff in pro shop. No amenities to speak of for food, drinks, etc. Shabby actually.

Resort Golf - Nothing more/nothing less

The scenery at this course is top notch and created a very enjoyable experience. The way I would describe the course is that they put a golf course where there wasn't enough room for one. The holes were narrow and not very interesting besides the views. But everything was in good shape, and for the price I thought like the value was accurate. I just wouldn't go back for the golf only.

Very nice course

Beautiful course to play. A lot of water, and can be a bit windy sometimes, but very enjoyable. I wish their practice range had room for woods and drivers. The putting and chipping practice area is great. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Overall excellent value for the price. I will definitely play here again.
