Famous for having some of the best greens in south Florida, Pembroke Pines' Grand Palms Golf & Country Club offers three nine-hole courses: Royal, Sabal and Grand. The three golf courses are played in three separate combos, with the Royal/Sabal coming in at a robust 6,847 yards from the gold tees. The golf course traverses across a landscape of tropical foliage and thick palms, providing both a challenge and a reminder of what south Florida golf has to offer. The Royal/Sabal shines with player-friendly fairways and generous greens.

Slow Play

We had a 900 tee time, had us starting on the same course as others making the turn. Had the same experience as we made the turn. 51/2 hour round that s too long even for a Saturday. No ranger on the course to maintain play.

Fire Ants out of control

I have played this course for years. Unfortunately I have seen it decline due to improper maintenance. There are fire Ants everywhere. I took a friend visiting from Michigan and he was badly eaten by the fire Ants. Unacceptable.

Nice

We had a great round. Some of the holes were a little confusing, but we figured it out. Decent conditions. Overall, would definitely play there again.

Excellent Layout bad turf

If you have suffered enough tough condition courses, well this one is for you! Spotty turf is fairly normal in places, this is more than average and definitely enough to make you question your choice of courses, but if that was removed the layout is actually very challenging and interesting: The staff are awesome and have options for a few nice cold ones of all varieties. Just get them at the start or turn and you’re all good. A reasonable value all told and good chops to get you ready for that Orange Monster course!

Underwhelming

For a resort course it was poorly maintained. More weeds than grass but the staff was excellent in the pro shop, bar and rangers. Could be way better if kept up but not worth the price for the quality.

Decent course

This is decent golf course you can come later afternoon on weekend without reservation in advance.
The course is challenging and there are a lot of water to be aware.
Good value for the money.
