World Class Service

Normally it is a death wish to have a tee time from 11-3 pm during the summers in FL but it is worth it to play the Waldorf Astoria. Only negative comment is that the greens were arerated but all courses do it and if that makes the round cheaper than so be it. Everything else was top level resort style feel. Unlimited water (coolers everywhere on the course), range balls included with tee time, and valet services are just some of the perks of playing here. The starter did say during the peak season (Oct-Apr) it cost anywhere from $230-250 to play but if you are in Orlando during the summer months, even with the powerful sun, it’s a no brainer.

Great service. Great course. Terrible sand traps.

This is a beautiful course, and the service is incredible. Unfortunately they have are the worst sand traps I have ever experienced at a high end course. There is almost no sand, just mud. Would have been a perfect 5 star rating otherwise.

Nice course

First time playing course, got good price due to greens being Aerated but not a big deal for recreational golfers like me and my son. Would love to play it again next time at Disney.

Aerated Greens

Course conditions are fine.

Aerated greens take away from the round. Not worth $75 with greens Aerated.

Will try again in a month or so

Need a course Marshal.

Need a full time marshal on course to speed up play. We got behind slow group and we where told to speed up? We Told the gentlemen that ,but he didn't want to hear it. We continued our play. The only thing is the arrogance of some people make your day sour. I wouldn't recommend this course to anyone who loves the game and enjoys to play. There is usually those groups that spoil your day with their attitudes and thoughts of ownership of a course. There are many courses to play in Orlando and I would say try those first. I've played TPC sawgrass and other courses more pristine than this course and treated way better.

I want to love this course, I just like it.

There is so much to like here, but I just found the routing to be rather bland. The staff was the best of any we encountered in our six-round trip to Orlando. The pro shop is awesome, the cooler of waters off #1 is a really nice touch. The range is just off the cart corral and next to #1. The conditions are near perfect. You feel like you are someplace special. But the routing was sorta bland. Felt like a RTJ trail site...long, wide, big greens. Just get the ball in the fairway, avoid some trouble around greens and score. Maybe not challenging enough. But we really did enjoy ourselves and we will come back. The staff makes a huge difference. The only problem we had was the restaurant at the golf shop was closed (Covid?, Staffing?) so we had to eat at AquaMarine, their poolside restaurant. Between a morning and afternoon round it would be much nicer to eat inside, in AC, rather than by a hot pool. And this restaurant wasn't staffed enough to handle pool guests and golfer guests. But we all agreed we would play here again.

Excellent Shape, Great Course

Staff is very friendly and helpful. I would suggest staying in the hotel next door so you can walk over and play each day. They give a discount if you stay at the hotel. Great Experience, course was in great shape and speed of play was great.
