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.

Grand Palms

Everything was great except most of the actual greens on Grand and Royal courses are almost in such bad condition it will add an additional stroke if your putting further than about 5 feet.

Horrible condition

How dare you charge me $70 to play this Sunday. This course should be discounted!!!! Overall the course is not in good shape. The greens are absolutely horrible!!!!!! Take a little pride for God sake!!! Anything over $20 is way too much to pay for this place. What a shame this course has become.

Not as bad as expected

Played this course this week. Staff was friendly, greens are ok, rough in some spots but not unplayable. Course was nice and long with some nice water challenges.

Get what you pay for

This course is old and tired. Greens in very poor condition. Fairway grass is sparse as well. If you want a cheap round and want to play quickly, this is the course for you if conditions of the course don’t matter.

Treat yourself better

This course is absolutely horrendous. If you think the tee boxes are bad, wait till you see the fairways. If you think the fairways are bad, wait till you see the greens. Actually, calling them greens is a huge stretch. Do yourself a favor, spend a little more and play ANYWHERE ELSE.

Disappointing conditions

I've played Grand Palms several times in the past and was looking forward to this round. Unfortunately, the condition of the course, especially the greens, was poor and the fairways were not a lot better. We played both the Royal and the Sabal courses and the Royal was far worse than the Sabal. I feel they should close the Royal course until the greenskeepers can bring the course to an acceptable level

Greens were in real bad shape. Change over after 9

Holes needs to be protected. We had to play same 9 twice (they have 3 nines).

Neglect

Greens are neglected. Courses overall continue to degrade. Paying anything over $35 a round is robbery.

Extremely Bad Greens and Poor Off-Course Amenities

The 18 greens in these two 9-hole courses are in terrible shape. They have big portions of it with no grass and just dirt and the parts that do have grads are full of grass sprouts that are not the type you expect on a putting green. Needless to say that despite having a good game, putting was made more difficult by these conditions.

The 19th Hole was managed by a lady that does noy like her job or is in a bad mood and poor manners. Not only that, on a Friday, she closed the bar and left around 3 pm, when the course closes at 6 pm and there were a lot of players still in the course.

I paid high season prices (green fee) and did not get a good return for it.
