About
Located along the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay, Shalimar Pointe Golf Club enjoys a scenic, rolling landscape dotted with trees. This often-overlooked golf course has been considered one of the Emerald Coast's best-kept secrets but the word is beginning to get out. The course, due to its challenging but playable nature, has been used for U.S. Open qualifiers and it was host to the Emerald Coast Tour. The layout features immaculately manicured greens that are framed by strategic bunkering and water hazards on a number of holes. The golf course is challenging but fair with five sets of tees to accommodate players of all skill levels. The course is Shalimar Pointe's main attraction but it is complemented by extensive practice facilities including an expansive driving range, putting green and chipping green.

Hello,
The staff member inside that signed you was very rude, and I felt could be possible racist base upon the comment he made to me.
Greens going bad
Overall course is declining again. New greens two years ago that are on their way to being poor dying out in spots. What a shame to invest all the money to try and refurbish the course 2 years ago and due to lack of a decent greens keeper tossing all that money down the drain
Greens need some TLC
Overall, the course was satisfactory. The course could have been above satisfactory if the greens were in better shape. There were some greens that had brown patches or needed some TLC.
I was a bit surprised I did not see any marshal on the course to assist with the pace of play.
Decent course in need of a little TLC
My son and I played on a Monday. Course is a little patchy with some greens in rough shape. Overall a good layout with some challenging holes. Staff was very nice and accommodating. We got a good deal on the round and would play again.
Fun course to play
I had a fantastic time playing this course! The experience was overall enjoyable, even though the pace was a bit sluggish due to the players ahead of us. The greens had some interesting punch holes that added to the challenge. Despite that, I’m definitely looking forward to coming back for another round!
Great value for your money in Destin
We were very pleased with our round here. We paid a third of the price compared to the higher-end courses in the area. The staff and members were extremely helpful and nice. The course had a nice layout and was in good shape.
Fun course, rough greens
I played this course on a hot deal. It was worth exactly what I paid for it. The tee boxes were great, most fairways were in good shape. However every green had dead spots and made putting nearly impossible. I'm not the best putter, but 4 three putts from less than 15 feet because the ball hops or gets knocked off line is insane.
The staff was very pleasant, especially the cart girl Abby.
I drove over an hour and a half to play this course and would do it again for the price I paid.
Beautiful and fun course!
One of the best and most fun courses I’ve played, the staff was very helpful and kind and the course was even better. Definitely recommend!
Not for Me
The pace of the course was rushed... with a six pack ahead of us, the single behind us the single player was rude he did not following course pace of play protocol. There is not a course marshal to maintain the pace. Wild Wild West out there.
The greens were in terrible shape.
The tee box signage was outdated and inaccurate as to distance
The carts are worn and slow.
No amenities on the course
Great course
Friendliness, beautiful and affordable. Will recommend to anyone that wants to enjoy gorgeous greens in great community.
