Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa

Storms washed mud into the middle of four of the holes creating a barely playable situation until repairs are done and grass is planted.

I am sorry to have to write this review as normally I can find something good about any course… This is the exception.

First, access to the course is through a manned guard gate and there wasn’t anyone there. Waited five minutes before a resident let me in.

Once at the course the pro shop staff were reluctant to tell me about the course condition. Nine of their 27 holes are closed due to floods that happened earlier this year and four of the remaining 18 have been severely impacted which shorten the course and make you play through large waste areas.

The driving range has also been destroyed by the flooding and you’re reduced to hitting off mats into a cage. And yes, there’s more…. The practice green was closed and I was actually directed to practice putting on the ninth green of the course lol. Oh, the starter did say that I should move off the green if people were coming up the freeway. Pro tip lol. No drink cart or water on the course and there were gnats everywhere.

Overall, this is one of the worst experiences I’ve had ever in the Coachella Valley in the 30yrs I’ve been coming here. Save your $100, go to the pool, enjoy a beverage, and put that money towards a good course.

Played the north and south course. Started on south. It was fine. Couple of holes were poorly kept but should be ready in next few weeks. Just soaked because of floods but playable.

Then went to north…. Oh boy. This was amateur hour. Hole one par 5 is converted to a garbage par 3. Three more holes of the north course are similar and not really playable. No warning

about how horrible the conditions are. It’s a complete joke. When there are so many other good options around, save yourself the time and money.

South course was in good shape if you kept it in the fairway. Just off and your lucky to find your ball because the rough was deep & thick! The North course should be closed! It was a joke! They weren't even mowing the fairways! I legit lost a ball and it was dead center. They had a storm a couple months ago and it ruined 4 holes that should in no way be open. The course has a nice layout but what are they doing staying open on the north course??

I enjoyed the first 9 holes. But the North course is totally under construction (assume from the flooding) and very difficult to navigate, tee boxes hard to find, no restrooms. The price is a bit steep considering how much the course is torn up. If you're lucky enough to not play the North course during your 18, then would think a totally different story.

The course had a lot of water damage from the hurricane Hillary. The course was basically unplayable. We had to pick up our balls and move them out of the mud.

I enjoyed most of my round but the 5th 6th and 7th holes in the North nine were in terrible shape due to winter (?) flooding. Basically unplayable and unfair. We could have been warned about that in advance. Otherwise I’m nice condition and a fair layout.

3 or 4 holes were washed out due to flooding would have been better to play the first 9 twice

Overall the course (fairways) were in pretty good condition. (We played the North/South course.) west course is still going through reseeding and will be closed for at least another week or so I was told. The holes that cut through the wash area are slowly being brought back after the tropical storm a month ago. Most of the greens had some edge damage and hopefully they can be fixed soon for high season. I don’t feel that the prices should go up until the greens are fixed properly.

Only disappointment was that both the North & West courses were down for underseeding. Had to play the South course twice. .

I played the South course 9 holes twice while the re-seeding is going. Enjoyed the round and great value for this level of golf course. Would certainly play this again!

Rough was ridiculous, couldn't find balls in it. Greens were soaked. Waste of $49. Never again!!!!!!

This was one of the worst golf experiences I’ve ever had, not only was the grass not maintained and super ridiculously long but the gnats were out of control, plus I wasn’t aware of only

Nine holes being available and you had to play it twice to get 19 holes in until I arrived, not to mention a resident in a blue sedan that was driving by yelled “suck my dick” in the middle of me teeing off, I will never recommend this course nor go back

It appeared the tee boxes and rough not been mowed for weeks. The fairways were mowed, but mounds of cut grass lying everywhere due to length of grass. Impossible to find most balls off the fairways.
