Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa

Played in the wind and 50° cold so that did not help my impressions of the course. Pace of play was excellent since I was the only idiot on the course in these conditions. Staff is super friendly, the course is in immaculate shape but visually it is very bland. With little or no definition between fairway and greens and very little rough it is hard to pick out a spot to aim for since everything looks the same. Makes it tough to get comfortable with your distances. The waste areas are easily played out of and the revetted bunkering is a nice touch. Hitting off of matts in the truncated practice area is only good for a quick warm up. I understand that paying customers get a hat and mug possibly, I guess $150 didn't get me to that level. May try it again on a warmer day.

After a few tough beginning holes the course opens up and plays nicely. The waste bunkers weren’t really a problem. Greens were very firm since they were new by that is to be expected. The negative is that the greens fee of almost $240 is quite high.

I really enjoyed playing here. The staff was very friendly and the course was in awesome shape. It was the right blend of challenging holes and golf shots coupled with opportunities to score. I would recommend this course to anyone and would play it again someday. I am a 13 handicap and played the blue tees which was the right choice.

Course is in great shape. Greens need to be quicker. New design is just okay with some interesting holes. Seems they could have left more trees in on the new holes. Par 3s were especially boring. The berms outlining the waste areas are a nice touch. No practice area except a netted area is a negative especially since Raptor Bay had such a good practice area.

Won’t go back to play at the price point.

I played this course in the past when it was known as Raptor Bay. Changes have been made to the layout and a new back 9 was recently opened. The course was in excellent condition, the staff was super attentive, and the pace of play was outstanding with a 3 hour round for our 2-some. The recent improvements and changes made it a much better course. The price was a bit high for a mid-week round in late November, but the expierence was first class

Not a challenging course nor layout. Had a 16 man outing in front of me, so as you can imagine slowed the round done to 2 1/2 hrs. Greens are very nice but are on the slow side. Nice round.

We played Raptor Bay in the past and the redesign did not disappoint. The course is in stunning shape and the drink and lunch we had in the bar after was awesome. Staff was extremely welcoming and did a great job explaining the course layout ahead of our round.

I fear change and thus was apprehensive about Raptor Bay being renovated. Firstly this is for the most part an entirely different course. The holes previously used by Raptor play differently currently. For instance old number one is now three, still a par 5 however you play it backwards, from old green to old tee. The vast majority of Saltleaf is comprised of brand new, previously undeveloped, land. The course is beautiful, challenging, but fair. I appreciate and enjoyed the aesthetic of the grass berms utilized throughout the remodel. The only criticism i have pertains to the practice facilities. It is a netted hitting area and practice putting green. I was unable to garner much feedback from my swing in such a confined space. The old practice facilities at Raptor were far superior…alas it appears that area will become a tower. Overall the course is excellent, and stands out in an area replete with mundane courses. I recommend. Hopefully the practice facilities will be upgraded to match the quality of the course, particularly for the price.
