Overall solid course
The course condition and staffs were great. Highly recommend. One downside was the pace of playing as there was accumulated delay.
We appreciate you giving us a 5-star rating!

Ocean Holes are Great
Course was an 8.5/10 Snack Bar service was slow. Went inside for lunch. Soup was uneatable!! sent back. And of course-no driving range. Nets are disappointing
Greetings - thanks for taking the time to review your visit. We understand your concerns and will take your review of the F&B at the Bar to the Resort as Club 19 is unfortunately not managed by the golf course.
Thanks again for your review -

Gorgeous course, great views
Course was in excellent shape, the clubhouse, grill, driving range were all high end. Green fees are expensive but you’re paying for the views. Totally worth it.
Thank you very much for taking the time to review your round with us - visit again soon!

Greetings u1722369746,
We are sorry to feel you didn't find the value in your visit with us. There are options to enjoy golf with us for a lower rate.
Regardless, thank you for spending the day with us.

Good course, excellent staff, strange tipping policy.
The strange part. I was led to believe when checking in, the tip % added to the green fees was a composite for all staff. First time I had encountered an add on in advance, pick your tip % at check in.
Found out later it was pro shop personnel only who shared in the tip.
Went back in the pro shop, asked that they split the 20% of the total with the club cleaner, the valet, and the marshal, as well as the shop staff.
Kind of perplexing-I like the one tip for all, but think the one minute check in doesn’t warrant the whole $ 105 tip.
The shop said it only slit when requested Troon, you should at least explain what the system is.
Greetings!
Thank you for sharing your experience - we have already brought this review to our team to figure out a better way to explain the gratuity option at the Golf Shop counter. We were glad you were able to visit recently between weather systems and experience the beauty that is MBGL!

Great course but too pricey
The course is beautiful, but only half of one hole is on the water - don’t be fooled by website photos. Foursomes are staggered all day so the play is slow (took us 4:30 to play) and the course is riddled with divots.
Thank you, nujeehij, for taking the time to review your visit. With a resort course like ours, Pace of Play is always top of mind. Thanks again.
