Waldorf Astoria Golf Club

almost 5 hours to play. not because of crowds, some people should play executive coarse , please be mindful of others who do play often.

This is one of the best courses in Orlando that is not private. Attention to detail is well done. A lot of bunkers. Challenging but fair. Top notch.

My first time at this great golf facility.

While hitting included practice balls, staff member asked if I would like to team up with 3 others and get out in front of a rather large group.

Well, I jumped at the chance and we had a fantastic time.

Very challenging course...lots of water, a ton of bunkers and thick, deep bermuda roughs.

The only criticism I would have is that the bunkers, many of which I found, are not consistent throughout the course.

First, this course is always in great condition and overall is quite beautiful. This particular round we were sandwiched in the middle of a pro-pro team tournament with pros like Lee Janzen, DiMarco, etc. So it was fun to see the pros ahead of us play the holes as well. The course conditions were very good as usual. Greens were terrific though surprisingly somewhat slower than you would expect. If there are any complaints, the two I have are: (1) the holes lack some variety since virtually all of them are basically straight with few if any doglegs and (2) many green complexes have a similar raised green which drops off sharply on at least one side and back into water hazards. So I think it is one of the better courses in the Orlando area and conditions are always one of the best, but layout-wise I like the variety of Orange County National Panther Lake better or even Rosen Shingle Creek a little more.

Played 5 rounds at 4 different courses through our 8 day stay and by far this was the best shape of all. Greens and fairways were lush. A little softer fairways than I would have liked, but expected as they had over-seeded for the winter grasses. Staff was awesome. Valet, bottled water, practice balls, GPS all included. Discounted replay as well. No additional charge for my non golfing girlfriend.

Met a lovely couple that I got to play with. Always wonderful playing with great people. Thanks Devin and Pam. The course was amazing some very long hole...not even Rory getting there..lol

Love this place. Look backwards on some holes for excellent views.

We have played a lot of courses at home in the DFW, TX area, and none match this course. The range has a great setup for irons, but not so much for working on your driver. This and the lack of availability for a post-round practice session on the range were the reason I knocked 1 star off the amenities.

As for the course itself, it was outstanding. We played from the 2nd tees from the back, and while it was a challenge, it was not out of line hard. The greens were firm and very smooth, so once we got the putting speeds down, they were fair. The service staff was great, and we saw the beverage cart at least 4 times in a very fast 18 hole round that we finished in 3:35.

We always enjoy the Waldorf golf club, but the lack of amenities killed the experience. We planned on having lunch at the club ( not open). No cart girl on course. Won’t be back until they are fully open. Stop with the COVID restrictions! People play golf to escape the shut downs.

Now I live here (moved about 3 years ago) but it’s great to be able to play in 68 degree weather in December at a premier course. Although not cheap, compared to the Ritz, which is a similar price point, I think this is a lot more value for money. The course layout and condition are the biggest differentiators. You can get some good deals on Golfnow as well to soften the fees.

I played the course last year and had such a terrific time that it was the first stop on my return this season. The course is amazing the practice facilities are first rate and the staff is warm and friendly. I highly recommend the Waldorf-Astoria course

The staff was friendly and helpful
Jeff the pro was awesome. The place was like we owned the club. Just what it should be
The food cart was not to expectations but the girls were fantastic about making things right
One of the best courses in Orlando
We played 7 courses in 7 days and this was by far the best course; best value

This is a very challenging course given its many water and dry-land hazards; narrow fairways; unforgiven high-lip bunkers. Overall conditions can be said pristine. However, it's pricey at season times based on what it can offer. The course offers about 15-minute pre-round complimentary range times but it doesn't allow any post-round; something that I have never seen in any course that offers a complimentary range. Given the high premium, complimentary valet parking, and bag handling, how can you so stingy on the range? Although there are many near-by quality courses that offer similar course conditions, services, and challenges; this is still a recommended one.
