Sanibel Golf Club

This course charged $125 to play unputtable greens.. They should tell you that when booking. Course should be closed until their greens are replaced. After driving 30 minutes to get their we were told we could get our money back after 3 holes if we were unhappy.

Worst greens I’ve played including putt putt courses.

Honesty

The staff advised they had a problem with the greens. If I wasn’t happy after 4 holes they would refund my fee no questions asked. The greens weren’t great but everything else was very good. Fairways had grass. The layout was challenging.. They advised greens to be replaced in May.

I will play again

Condition of greens ruins outing

The island tract is very beautiful and playable. But not for the first time in recent years, the greens have completely died, and all but two or three are 50-80% covered by compacted green sand. We honestly still enjoyed the round, and putting wasn’t impossible. But it was like putting on the wet part of a beach. Our playing partners were first timers and low handicappers, and were shocked the course would stay open.

Great day on the island.

Nice course. Very scenic. Worth the $50 from Golf Now. The people in front of me checking in paid $138. We knew the greens were in bad shape before we got there. They rolled alright just had poor a lot of bare spots on them. Hopefully next year they will be better.

Don’t waste your monet

Staff was friendly and receptive. BUT there was a notice in the door that told you about the condition of the greens. They were HORRIBLE due to bad weather in Dec. But no other course I’ve played had this problem. Said something after play about not seeing this disclosure online and was told it’s not on line. I played this course 2 years ago during pandemic when there was not much golf being played and it sucked then. Worse today. Played with a great twosome and had fun. Bar was friendly but course is not worth $74 for 9 holes. Will not play here again.

Not worth the toll

Course was in very poor condition granted the proshop said the ciurse was in bad shape and offeredr a refund should we niot like after the 3rd hole. However after driving 45 minutes where would you get another tee time... The condition of course should have been relayed prior to booking not after already being paid for and booked a week in advance. Bad experience would not reccomend. Fairways were poor the greens were painted sand... and we paid $111...

Greens need A LOT of work

The course is lovely and the staff were courteous and helpful, but the greens are in atrocious shape, literally unplayable. The greens are patchy and trying to be seeded, but no putt goes where it's supposed to. No one in my grouping made a putt over 8 feet. If you're ok paying over $120 for greens that will cost you at least 5 shots, feel free to play it. But remember that I warned you not to play there until the greens are fixed, which I was told probably wouldn't be until next year. I wish I took pictures to show how bad they were.

Feel bad

The owners are great, but bad luck with a fungus on the greens. They are trying their best, but the greens are 50+ percent sand. Redoing them this May. Can’t wait to play it next winter season.

Sanibel island golf

A course with huge potential but unfortunately the greens have been damaged by some type of disease and as such have been spot repaired with sand and other fillers!

Interesting layout! Lots of incredible trees and birds and wildlife in general.

great time interval between players no rushing or being hurried

! But the poor conditions of the greens leaves one wanting more for the premium price paid to play this course

No greens

Upon arriving we were told the greens had some issues. The greens were in terrible shape, we couldn't believe they were still charging full price. Guess it's the price you pay for being on an island. However, the staff was great, very friendly and helpful. The layout is fun with a nice mix of holes.
