Great 9 hole course

This is a very nice 9 hole course right behind the Marriott. It is very well kept and offers a pretty decent challenge even with it being all par 3's.

Super Fun Practice Nine

This course is a wonderful little course that is tucked away and seemingly hidden from most in the area. Playing here in the middle of the afternoon on a Thursday was a breeze. The course is always well-maintained and has a calming effect. I feel like you only need to hit 2 distances here - 125 yard +/- 10 and 150 yds +/- 10. Of course, that leaves the 8th hole, which is a nice 175 yds to the green, over the water. Yes, I lost one ball in that pond because I hit a fat shot that went only 160 instead of 175. :(
The rest of the course was really nice and fun. The golfer has the option of teeing the ball up or hitting off the mats. I chose the mats since I was only focused on practising my swing path and alignment of the club face. The course would be even more fun if the greens were faster and if there were a few more bunkers or a running creek that would cut through the middle.
This course and the Marriott hotel make for a very welcoming atmosphere.

Manhattan Beach Marriott Par 3

Decent course. No discount for kids
Normal rate of $19 stupidly high. Good value with GolfNow discount. Staff was great. They let us go early even though we had later time.

Also no water fountain so you are forced to buy their bottles

But we like the course and playing again one day later

Challenging 9 hole course with cool ocean breezes

This is actually a 9 hole par 3 that is challenging due to the various water hazards and bunkers. I've played it twice now and have enjoyed it each time. The course is better maintained than the local city courses I've been to, but not as well maintained as at a private club. The lack of a driving range is an issue. Your first tee shot is over the water, so it creates anxiety right out of the gate. Be prepared for a mulligan on the first hole.

BTW, I rated value as great, but I've gotten great deals each time. I would not have rated it as highly if I had paid full price.
