Pebble Beach Resorts®

This was my first time ever playing this course. I found a great deal on Golfnow for about $48. Not bad considering it's $95 to play there. I finished the course in 2.5 hrs, and I had to wait in the last few holes. The course didn't feel like a $95 one. The tee boxes, greens, and fairways were in good shape.

Take a course in patience. Not long ,( 6365) from the back, however each shot must be played as if the round depended on it. even after 2 days of rain, the greens were fast and true. Overall, you will greatly enjoy a round here and on a pristine day, it will be memorable!

This is my first time golfing at the Del monte golf course, Monterey. Impressive kindly staffs and beautiful field made me happy. Furthermore, reasonable price was awesome!!

Played this wonderful old course during a slightly rainy weekday. Hardly anyone else was playing, so
I was by myself. I played as a riding single and finished in less then 3 hours. Due to early season
rains, the course was in great shape. Fairways were
green and full. The rough was thick and the greens
were a bit slow. Talking to the staff, the course has improved greatly from the rains. I had a very
good time...................

This course is a shame for the Pebble Beach reputation. I understand that they can't water the course as much as needed, but they shouldn't charge that amount the money for a course in such a bad condition. Plus the layout is very average, with holes very close to an hotel. Noisy, bad shape. good staff.

Well. I was very disapointed last time I played it was not a pebble beach property so I had high expectations
I understand we are in adrought. But dead and bumpy greens and. Unusable tee boxes not to mention. Poor bunker conditions from a maintenace stand point I would have thought with PB name on line those things would have been seriously better would have rather played rancho canada. So very disappointed

The greens were great, but the fairways were very disappointing - due to the severe drought. Anything off the fairway was dirt which can be hard to hit off. Courses in Carmel Valley seem to be less impacted by the drought so far.

With more than seven hours between the end of my meeting till my flight time, Del Monte was a logical choice. The staff was helpful and pleasant. My playing partners were good hearted locals..

Now for the course I had not played in 7 years. This is a great old style course. Time was been kind and the on going drought has not! The layout is challenging and more frustrating when you cannot find turf. The course is a treasure and I hope it recovers/survives.

Amazing greens! Fast, fast and fast. Drought has affected overall conditions of fairways but most courses in the area face the same problem. If you are an NCGA member, Poppy Hills is a better value for the money. Wanted to play this course once in my life. Mission accomplished.

The greens were beautiful rolling true the course is in great shape even though it's a little bit of a drought time in Northern California

Phenomenal place... every golfer should play this course once in their life time....!! Just do it.... no regrets whatsoever...

Terrible! The course punched the greens the day before our round. No notice, no warnings, no apologizes.... absolutely shocking...

I had a client fly in from the East Coast for a golf trip, we scheduled 4+ months in advance... my client walked off the course after the 9th hole and they would even refund his round....!!

Save your $2k and play a course where the staff has the same etiquette you'd expect from a playing partner....

BTW, the back nine is as bland as a loaf of generic white bread...

I really liked the course, as did my husband. He's played now for over 30 years, but I'm new to golf and we both enjoyed the course & had a great time. One of my favorite features of the course is the layout. The layout allows for a more streamlined pace of play & continuity. I wasn't able to give the course 5 stars for condition, however this is due to drought conditions, out of their control. Would love to play there again next time we are in Monterey. (My husband voiced the same sentiment.)

Course was in terrible condition ! Very poor value, was one of the most expensive courses we played n vacation and was the worst value by far ! Would expect more from the average muni course that has 70,000 rounds per year.
Pace of play was great, locals must know to avoid this track.

Booked on Golf Now for what I thought was a good rate $69.00, only to find out that the fee for everyone else was $31.00. The fairways were dead on most of the back nine due to car show being held on site and no water being applied. The staff should have informed us about this condition and offered a reduced rate. Very unprofessional.

The course is an olde gal but a great layout. They just punched and seeded fairways however the greens and bunkers are well kept. Play the tee markers according to your ability and you will enjoy your day. Because I played as a single I was able to play 2 balls the entire round. It was actually recommended by the starter. My wife was waiting for me outside the main building as I concluded hole 13 and decided to ride with me the rest of the round. This course staff and the Hyatt grounds made for a relaxing time.

I'll start off by saying that as soon as I walked off the 18th green, I wanted to get right back on the first tee. We finished the round in 4:30 and overall it was an amazing round/weekend.

Old Del Monte is a true golf course with tons of History. The PGA tear it up as well they should, but I dare any amateur say they slayed this course without previous course knowledge! Lots of shapely holes make you stay to the right side of fairways to start the round, then holes that make you stay on the left side while not going to far left to finish the front nine. Stay below the hole! Love the Front nine. The back is wide open and right in front of you. Bombs away on the back no need to be too careful just hit it straight. Staying below hole on back premium as well; you must stay below the hole to score. Greens are tricky so short game a must out here or else. If you make it through the front ok you should light up the back. Greens can roll true at 11 or 12, or a bit bumpy with the same speed depending on the Poa. If the Poa is up, ball will not break as much. Go with line rather than speed in this case, but always be careful with speed. Ball rolls a lot out here. Love it! Especially love hole #14 in its original design and setting since the 1800's. Take time to look all around that hole as the wide open space is awesome.

I guess that's what makes the price so relatively high. My 4 some had high expectations and we were all disappointed. Compared to many other courses in the area, including Spyglass, Rancho Canada, Bayonet, Black Horse and Laguna Seca, it was a mundane course. The greens were fine and tricky, but be careful of errant shots from other golfers because of the peculiar layout on adjacent holes.

First time playing Del Monte. The course was challenging but fair. The staff was as friendly as I have met.
