Sewailo Golf Club
About
Sewailo Golf Club is part of the Casino Del Sol Resort in Tucson, a luxurious resort run by the Pascua Yaqui Tribe. The course's name, Sewailo, means "flower world" in the Yaqui language. When the idea of creating the golf course was first formed, the tribe enlisted the help of fellow Native American and PGA Tour player Notah Begay III as well as renowned course architect Ty Butler. The team fully utilized the rugged landscape, crafting a championship layout with a range of shot values and a variety of hazards. The bunkering is minimal but strategic, added to complement the natural features rather than overpower them. There are also lakes and meandering streams that come into play. Sewailo Golf Club has five sets of tees with the longest stretching to 7,400 yards.

Great course in great shape
First time at Sewailo and we'll be back. Both my wife and I enjoyed the course. It can be a challenging layout but fair. Course was in great shape. The only area for improvement would be pace of play. We waited on a foursome in front of us on every tee and on every green. No player assistance person in sight. I know it is a resort course but speeding up play makes it more enjoyable for everyone.
Tough course
This is a challenging course, but fair. Pick the right tee or be sorry.
Great desert golf
Course was in great shape other than the greens were not very fast as anticipated
Think first, then hit
Great course that begs you to consider your whole bag when choosing clubs. Holes are interesting and offer different ways to play. Big risk typically means the chance for big rewards -- or big trouble. More conservative play is still challenging, but allows more leniency on errant shots. Course works to maintain pace of play. Round was a little over 4 hrs, with a bit of waiting here and there. Beverage cart leans toward the expensive side, but I've seen worse. Nice carts with GPS and USB port. Attentive staff, ready for arrival and departure. Fees include balls for driving range, access to a good practice area.
Enjoyed the courses-in nice condition-greens are
very good.
It all looks the same
While the course was in good condition and the pace of play was great, we won’t play here again. Every hole seemed the same, and there are too many holes that take Driver out of your hands.
Very playable and beautiful course
Loved this course. Amenities were excellent. Loved the comfort stations that had lots of cold water available which helped with the heat.
Course is very playable with some tricky holes. GPS on the carts is a real plus and necessary.
Course does beat you up.
Not for seniors
This course is designed for walkers. Cart paths around the greens averaged 40-50 yards to the green and had either hills or bunkers to go around to get there. So many blind shots and blind doglegs. There will be no excuse for UofA not winning the PAC-12 Championship if played here.
Lost interest.
Good course and friendly staff. Need Marshall on the course to keep the pace of play up. Lost total interest in the round after five and half hours and still had one hole to play.
Fun coursr
This is the 3rd time I have played here. It takes some getting used to but I enjoyed it. I played backs a set of tees this time and the course played better. Pace of play was only issue. Took almost 5 hours. No rangers so that is issue. Some the best greens I have played in tucson
Amazing course
Great rates, beautiful practice facilities, ice cold water bottles every 3-4 holes all in all great experience beautiful course lots of fun
Excellent Course
Deceptively difficult. Greens run fast and true. Excellent condition; probably the best of any course I've played (in Green Valley area south of Sewailo).
Outstanding value
Really a lot of bang for your buck here. Very well maintained, excellent greens... rolled well and held approaches. No real amenities in the clubhouse, but GPS on the carts, and stocked with free waters.. all for $59 peak greens fees... Great value.
Tough but Fair
Very impressed with speed of play. Only had to wait on maybe 3 shots--and very briefly. Never saw the group behind us.Played in 4 hours First round of golf for the year and visitng from Chicago. Course in great shape and greens were fantastic. Not a long driver and 16 handicapper that played the Opal Tees at 5800. Will definitely play it again when back in Tucson.
Great course and good range and practice area. Lots of sand so bring your sand game.
Great golf
Great day of golf with a fine casino after. Can't wait for my next trip. Had tees for all levels.
Great staff
I messed up my reservation and they worked to slip us in. Friendly staff and very well kept course. Back nine is challenging. Too bad we cannot get into the U of A practice facility but the course ones are very nice
