Bella Collina Golf Club
About
Nestled in the hills of Montverde, Bella Collina Golf Club overlooks not only the vineyards of Central Florida but also the sparkling blue waters of Lake Apopka and Lake Siena. The layout sprawls across more than 1,900 acres of rolling hills, incorporating lush forested valleys and sweeping dunes. Nick Faldo designed this lengthy championship course, which from its back tees stretches to over 7,500 yards. Faldo utilized the natural contours of the land to create a golf course that requires more than just skill or distance. Creative shot-making and careful strategy will be generously rewarded. The diverse terrain provides plenty of challenges as well as a unique and visually stunning backdrop. Bella Collina is known amongst locals as one of the most scenic golf courses in the area. The stunning views and beautiful setting are worth the round alone.

Best facilities
Fun course. Lots of variety on the course and the facilities are top notch.
We thank you for joining us out at Bella Collina! We are glad to hear you enjoyed the facilities as well as the golf course, and we hope that this is not your first and only visit! Come see us again soon.
wow
Golf Palace in orlando..This is a course that I'll recommend to all my visitors from out of state..
Thank you in advance for your recommendations to others! We really appreciate that! We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Bella Collina, and we hope to not only see the people you recommend to our course but yourself as well in the future!
Challenging layout
This course has some great holes. Choosing the right tees will make it a good golfing experience for players of any ability. The greens had been knife aireated recently and some still had cut lines in them. Some greens were very bumpy and were not smooth. Roling the greens should have been done. Holes #9 and #18 are unfair driving holes. A well hit tee shot will sometimes end up in the junk. Correcting the fairway slope on those holes would greatly enhance their playability.
Thank you for choosing to play Bella Collina, we are very pleased to hear you enjoyed the golf course. We plan on doing a little course maintenance on the two holes you mentioned to make them a little more playable for the future. We hope to see you again soon!
Good facility
Played course using groupgolfer coupon for 69 and replay 25. Course conditions marginal. Greens had speed but very bumpy. Rest of course average. Layout very tricky need to play a few times to know where to miss. The clubhouse is beautiful and worth the drive to experience. Not worth anymore than rates posted above.
Thank you for visiting us out here at Bella Collina! You got a great deal with that promotion but we do like to believe our golf courses value is much more than what you paid. Greens have had a tough growing season the past few months as have most greens in our area. Personally walking Bay Hill's greens this past week ($225 after 12pm) and our greens were in a little better shape then theirs. We hope you decide to come back and play again, and you see a little more value from your experience!
Great track
The course is very challenging and interesting. Be prepared to play out of the sand.
We thank you for joining us out at Bella Collina! We are very happy to hear you enjoyed the golf course, and we hope to see you again soon!
Really difffernt Florida golf experience
Great place, nice people, feels like a private course but people are excellent.
We thank you for visiting us out here at Bella Collina, we are very happy to hear that you felt like you were at a private golf course because we are a private course that allows a limited amount of outside play per day. All play throughout the day from the moment they enter the property should feel as if they are a member for the day even if you are not paying the dues, we strive to bring that service for every member/guest on property.
Orlando trip
The course was in excellent condition except for the rocks in 'some' of the bunkers. I don't like hurting my clubs in a bunker!
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the golf course! As far as the rocks in the bunkers, we have a local rule that you are able to lift clean and place in the bunkers if you have any rocks around the golf ball. So, next time you play I hope that you keep it out of the bunkers, but in the off chance you find one you will not have to worry about hurting your golf clubs! Thanks again for joining us out at Bella Collina!
Bella Collina Review
Beautiful venue. Fast greens. Lots of vertical change - rare for Florida. Clubhouse is magnificent. Pace of play adequate. Great course.
Thank you for such a high review! We are very happy you chose to play Bella Collina, and we hope to see you again soon!
orlando trip
Awesome, I would highly recommend this course and establishment. It was high class.
Thank you for visiting us out here at Bella Collina! We hope that you decide to come back and join us again soon in the near future!
A great day of golf and a wonderful facility.
Wonderful challenging course. Greens were a little rough compared to previous years. They still need to fix holes 9 & 18 re the severe fairway slopes.
We thank you for visiting us out here at Bella Collina, we are very happy to hear that you enjoyed yourself! As for the greens, we had a slight issue with them caused by the weather this season but they are improving day by day. We hope to see you again!
schpltini
Perfect. Until I had a burrowed lie.......................
We are very sorry to hear about your burrowed lie, and we hope that you lift cleaned and placed as you are able too under rule 25-2 about an embedded ball. But we are very happy to hear you had a perfect day other than that! We hope to see you again soon!
Great place, course needs a bit of water
This course obviously has potential to be one of the best in FL. Staff was really nice and professional. Greens were really good but sloped fairways with dry conditions make this course exceptionally difficult for even an above average player. I would recommend playing this course for the amenities and visual appeal but don't think you're going to shoot your best score here. Course knowledge would help against over slopes fairways.
We thank you for seeing the potential of our great golf course, and soon enough we will be one of the best in the State of Florida. We are working to soften a few of the slopes so that the golf course is never unfair in any way but will remain difficult. Course knowledge is definitely a plus, so with saying that we hope to see you again soon! Thank You for joining us this past time, and like I said we hope to see you again soon!
Golf
Beautiful facilities. Unfair slope on fairways especially with dry conditions. A great challenge, if money is invested into course to keep up with the standards of the facility and club house this would be a five star and above course.
We thank you for coming to play out at Bella Collina, and we are happy to see you enjoyed the facilities. The course took a little beating with the weather this season but is improving day by day so we hope you come back again to play!
Four Brits on holiday in March
Tough but fair course, in ideal conditions. Greens had been aerated so appearance wise, could have been better, but they rolled true and well. Some of the bunkers had not been raked and the consistency of the sand varied. Course design, the clubhouse and the friendliness and welcome from the staff was outstanding. A thoroughly enjoyable day, and I would recommend to others unreservedly
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience out here at Bella Collina, we are sorry for the look of our greens being aerated, they actually haven't been aerated since the summer but some may look that way as we had a tough growing season the past few months, but they are improving day by day and I hope to you join us again soon so you can see our greens at their full potential! Thank you once again for joining us out here at Bella Collina! Cheers!
Awesome course!
Had an early tee time and was essentially the first group out. Finished in 3:45. Course conditions were excellent. Staff was excellent.
Great design by Faldo and challenging. Good value if booked on GolfNow.
We thank you for joining us out here at Bella Collina, we are very happy to hear you were able to play fast without any hold up and you had a great day. We hope to see you again soon!
Excellent course
Lots of sand.. Players course for sure... Love the no hassle beer cart
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your round out here at Bella Collina, and we hope that you pay us a visit again soon!
Great course and facilities but.....
The course is undulating and above the surrounding countryside which, in the moderate breeze that was blowing, made it somewhat challenging. The clubhouse oozes quality and the course was in very good condition. Having said that, the pace of play was very slow and we had to wait on every hole. This is not helped by the number of completely blind shots that one has to play, especially the tee shots on the 2nd and 18th where, at one stage, there were 3 groups on the tee waiting to play the last hole. Has anybody at the course thought about a bell or similar to let the following group know when they can tee off??
Thank you for visiting us out at Bella Collina! We apologize for the slower pace of play, typically this is not an issue but we will look into further from that day. Also we will take your suggestion about the bell on 18 into some consideration, although a bell may not be ideal I am sure that we can find something to make this process better on 18 Tee Box. Thanks!
tough course period.
Great club house, golf course, great staff, the course is flat out tough.
Thank you for joining us out here at Bella Collina! We are very happy you enjoyed your visit and we hope to see you again soon!
