Couldn’t be more Satisfied beautiful course with immaculate fairways pace of play was smooth sub 4 hour round in the morning plus a Super Feiendly and Attentive staff. Coming from Santa Cruz Its definitely one of my top 5 public courses to play in the Monterey Bay…coming back

Excellent day at Del Monte. Course was in excellent condition for the last day of February. A few temporary tee boxes as several holes were being resodded. Greens were excellent as always. Look forward to my next round soon.

Course was very wet due to weather but we excepted it would be. That is why I only gave it 4 stars this time. Staff is always friendly. Always a fun place to play

Tee’d off on 2/13/26 about 10–15 minutes after our original 9:40 tee time, which was no big deal. We were enjoying a beautiful, relaxing round with two new players and my wife. At the 8th tee box, I even commented to the group how nice it was that no one was pushing us and we weren’t holding anyone up.

Right after we teed off, the marshal approached us and asked, “Is everything alright?” I said yes, we were enjoying the day. He then stated that we were 15 minutes behind and that the group in front of us was already on the 9th hole. I was surprised, especially since there was an open hole behind us. I explained that we had teed off 10–15 minutes late and that we weren’t holding anyone up. He seemed to understand.

However, when we reached the 11th hole, he approached again and told our group we needed to pick up the pace. At that point, the group behind us was still in the fairway of the previous hole — there was no possible way we were slowing anyone down. When I pointed this out, his response was that the group behind us “didn’t want to put pressure on us,” which frankly didn’t make sense. I’ve been golfing for over 45 years and play 2–3 times a week. When a group is playing slow and there’s open space ahead, the group behind typically puts a bit of pressure on to close the gap. That simply wasn’t happening.

By the 14th hole, we had caught up to the group in front of us and were waiting. On 15, we waited nearly 10 minutes to tee off. Meanwhile, the group behind us never caught up.

In addition, there was construction on at least seven holes — new tee boxes, water lines, or other work. There were compactors, tractors, and excavators moving around the course. At times, equipment was running within 30 feet of us while we were teeing off. The noise was so loud we couldn’t even have a normal conversation. For the price we paid, there should have been at least a significant discount given the disruption.

On a positive note, the lady in the pro shop was very pleasant, and the staff handling food and drink service were great.

Overall, while we enjoyed the company and the day itself, the repeated pace-of-play warnings and the heavy construction left a disappointing impression.

Greens fast. Very difficult to find golf balls in rough

Great layout and conditions. One of the best around Monterey. Highly recommended. I've been playing it since 1980, still love it.

Course was as could as can be for winter in January.Friendly staff

Del Monte is an old-school classic. It has small greens which are typically in great condition and about the same size & profile as playing at Pebble. The layout is fun, and if you’re playing well you can score and really yuck it up. The layout is very condensed so it takes time to play if there’s a lot of traffic on the course.

I heavily recommend it. For the money in the MRY area, it’s tough to beat and highly enjoyable.

Thank u to the pro shop staff and esp Eddie and Jose. We had a family emergency come up and they took care of us and were very accommodating and compassionate. Keep up the good work!!! 🙏🏽
