The view is amazing! The staff is friendly!

The golf course where we play is valley, which has a wide fairway for beginners or Hook/Slice. The view is fantastic and makes you feel happy.

But we lost four balls in the hole with the pool...

Greta course !

Amazing course and great keep up for the middle of June in the middle of the desert. Fairways and greens were pretty plush. Highly recommend the Palm course.

Top notch

Even in the hot summer days this course is top notch. Course layout is awesome. Very well kept. Lots of elevation changes, challenging approaches, deep bunkers. This is easier if the two at the JW Marriot and more forgiving.

Course & Resort are Amazing! Pro Shop staff is horrendous

First off we had a great time, course and resort were amazing. We were able to go out as a twosome on Father’s Day weekend and had great pace, finished in 3 hours. The guy working at the pro shop (9am-11am on Friday 6/16) was the absolute worst I have ever seen in my entire life. Guy has no business working in a front facing position. He was so miserable and unhelpful with every interaction. He was cocky and rude and acted inconvenienced at every question we asked. It was our first time playing here and didn’t know where anything was, we ended up having to ask the outside staff for any information we needed. (Outside staff was great, but due to the absolutely horrible service from the pro shop, giving one star as it put a stain on the experience). Course is immaculate, I will be playing again just hope I don’t run in to this curmudgeon in the shop again.
