Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa

This is a fun course. The day was cold and windy but when the sun peaked out it felt great. The course seemed to have some maintenance going on and it was not as quiet and pristine as I remember it. (They were respectful of golfers thought) Most holes are lined with homes on the course but there are some very lovely marsh views and some challenging shots. Most Dye courses I've played have more undulations in the fairway and this seems a little different but it was in good condition for this time of year and the wind made it challenging for high ball hitters on a few of the more narrow fairways. I think the interesting beauty of the layout is the water features. The way it meanders around the fairways/greens on a few holes is a very attractive natural look and adds a bit of thinking on lay-up shots. On two holes, I hit what I thought was a perfect second shot only to find I was in the marsh or water. Longer is not always better so judge your layups accurately.

Bunkers were a little firm and didn't have that plush soft feel and could use more powdery sand. About half of the holes were roped off so driving on the fairways/rough was not allowed the day I played.

The staff was very pleasant. The FL resident greens fee (35) is a very reasonable rate but you have to pay for range balls ($9/bag) and there was a $1 internet convenience fee, so add 10 bucks to whatever you paid online. All in all, it is still a reasonable rate for this resort-style course.

This was my third time playing this course and I will return again. The pro shop is reasonably well-stocked with what you would expect.

I have not eaten at the restaurant so no comment there. But it is part of the Omni so I would expect it to meet or exceed expectations.

I enjoy this course and its sister course (long point). I would not hesitate to recommend this.

Golf course was in great shape, and my group and I really enjoyed it. The course is challenging but fair, it’s a Pete Dye design the layout thru the inner costal is special. #16 -#18 is everything that you can want out of a finish. The staff is very friendly and they have a great pro shop.

Great course, great conditions. The staff was extra nice too.

Course was in ok shape-it has been played a lot but that is to be expected of a resort course. We got a good price and that was good. But nowhere was it mentioned that 8 of the 9 holes on the front were cart path only. This was a challenge for some on my group. When one person had to stop after 9, she asked for a credit for 9 holes and was told no! She was also told that the holes weren’t cart path only-yet there were stakes and strings along the entire hole. The staff in the pro shop was very disrespectful and therefore we will choose another course the next time we visit. The restaurant staff and cart guys were very nice.

Easy trip from Atlantic Beach taking Mayport ferry. Love the Florida Resident rate. Played with my son and had a blast. Greens perfect shape and rolling good. Great scenery. From restaurant staff, cart crew to starter everyone super welcoming! Love to show the kiddo what the games about and have such an encouraging course crew. Thank you!

Beautiful course in better than average shape. Not great but really good. Play the gold tees on the last three holes. The views are worth it! Definitely will play again.

Beautiful yet very challenging course. Can’t wait to play again

Course is great, fun layout and I’m pretty good shape. There are a lot of holes where the fairway is roped off and you might have to walk quite a ways to your shot. Really hurts the pace of play. Also; for some reason they decided to do away with complimentary range balls and now charge $9 for a small bag. Seems like an unnecessary way to squeeze extra money out of customers.

From tee to green this course is in great shape. Pace of play was under 4 hours. Range was recently closed but is open now with a much improved surface.

This course is excellent. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. I rented clubs and was pleased with the quality. The clubhouse was small. but well stocked and the restaurant/bar was outstanding. The cold beer was hugh and really hit the spot on this hot, humid day.

i played this course twice years ago and remember it being extremely challenging and even more so with the Palmetto bugs that attacked you on every tee box.

just bring pletny of OFF SPRAy and be prepared for some of the best golf you will ever experience.

They closed the Ocean course. Change the yearly pass. Now no range balls . Now can not play on Fridays or early morning on Sat and Sun.. so only want you when they times are slow. No longer want to be a member with all the changes. They took one of the very great ocean layouts and closed this. So unfair for the people who bought homes and memberships. Greed by the Omi.

Great staff, beautiful course and views. Wonderful snap shot of classic Florida golf. Looking forward to the next round here. Loved it!

Course conditions are improving over when we last played here a year ago. Fairways and greens in good shape. Perhaps in continuous improvement efforts many of the fairways were roped off making the course in effect 60-70% cart path only.

Several scenic holes along the marsh area make it a very enjoyable round of golf.

The course was in really nice shape, the greens were receptive and a good speed. The holes were lined with ropes so there are a lot of cart path only areas, which was not a problem for me.

Course was in great shape. Greens were smooth and fairways perfect.
