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.

Love Sewailo
This course is awesome.
That should say it all but it doesn't.
First thing you notice is the friendly and welcoming staff.
Then the practice facilities!
One thing I really like is when the practice putting green is just like the 18 others. I got a real feel for the speed and break on the practice green. And it was quick!
I love the layout and the scenery here.
Hope you enjoy it like I did.
Best course
Love playing this course, it makes you golf. The staff is the best I’ve seen anywhere I’ve played.
Challenging
There are many challenges, water, bunker position and desert, but it is still a fun course.
Sewailo
The course was great. The greeters not so much. 3 greeters totally ignored me. I dropped my bag went and parked, came back and my bag was exactly where I had left it. No big deal, I loaded it & went on to the putting green, practice area. Starter was friendly enough but then told I had the wrong cart. I told him o'well & what had happened at curbside. All good after that. I love Sewailo but you're constantly having to get cart gps back to course because of notes constantly popping up on screen. I will be back, Far too nice of a golf course to let a couple issues keep me away. One of the best in Tucson.
Conditions?
Sewailo is one of our favorite Tucson courses and continues to be. With that said, the conditions during this last round were as bad as I’ve seen them. Fairways were very thin. Despite the greens still being great, they are getting a little beat up. We have had a lot of rain lately which is creating muddy conditions. While I’m a little concerned about the course, I would still consider this one of the better places to play in Tucson.
Good but could be better
The fairways had a lot of holes and chunks missing unfortunately I think that comes from the other guests just going for it a little to much. The greens were very wet and soft. A ball from 50 yards out could hit and make a quarter inch divot on the green. Which the greens had patches everywhere! We ended up being 15 minutes behind due to the groups ahead. Not to mention on tire goes into the dirt and you cart automatically shuts down was frustrating at times. For the price and the hype I expected more honestly.
Great Course - No Course Management
I really like this course. But when I pay $70 in the afternoon and I should have enough time to finish 18, it’s a huge disappointment. No rangers on the course, no one monitoring pace of play - it’s a real disappointment. I’m not the best golfer (7.2 index), but I always play fast and the courses here need to step up. If I was able to finish, it would have been a 5+ hour round; unacceptable. It will be some time before I play again here; solely for the reason of slow play and no one around to manage it.
