Orlando World Center Marriott

Played Hawkes Landing on June 30 and enjoyed it so much. We came back on July 1. The course was an excellent condition. The greens were very good. I would highly recommend this course if you’re in the Orlando area. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent course........conditions and staff was excellent. It was super hot though. I asked when they turn ion the AC. He said, October. Lol

Played last year, same week, for a birthday event for a golf buddy, always eight of us and we play fast and play all day, even cocktail golf in the evening, so sometimes get 54 in. Last year, had to hit irons only on practice range (why????) but course was immaculate. Greens were fast, fairways plush, lots of water, fun holes and there were amenities - water on holes, trash cans on holes, drinks available from cart girl, window service for bfast and all day - and we had a blast. What a difference a year makes. This year, still had to hit only irons on practice range??, but greens are at least 2 stump meters slower, fairways still plush, t-boxes in bad shape on many holes and the course is still fun but seems to be struggling. BUT, course manager politely told us no water, no trashcans, no ball washers, no cart girl - instead he pointed to the window walkup for anything we wanted before, during, and after our 36 holes in 92 degree Florida sun! What type of Marriott resort can't get a cart girl on a course? What type of resort can't put a water cooler on a hole, or 10 of them during the summer??? We left completely dissatisfied and shocked honestly, and the poor window girl was struggling all day, not to mention they closed the window at 4 pm!!! Won't be going back because you pale in comparison to your competition and we can't take a chance on having to play another full day with the option of passing out by three or four with no supplies in sight. This place needs some management upgrades asap.

The greens were hard as concrete, wouldn’t hold a high shot and left no ball mark. They also were very slow which you wouldn’t think because of how hard they were.

Every tee box needed repair. Hardy any grass on either par 3 or par 5’s

The carts were annoying as well slowing you down because you were going over the astronomical speed of 8 mph. Got a warning it would shut down to not being on the cart path as we were driving on the cart path

Probably would not play again unless major upgrades were made

Thankfully the greens were in great shape.

Tee boxes were rough on a few holes.

Many areas around greens have died.

Driving range very rough looking.

Not an $80 course .

Overall course standards excellent, green immaculate, only negative was once we finished there wasn’t anywhere to relax and have a drink, barman extremely miserable

The course was in good shape, but the pace was horrible. I played as a solo and Tee’d off without a group insight. Caught up to the first group on the 4th hole and they let me play through. Caught up to the second group on the 6th hole and joined them for the rest of the front 9. Then on the back 9… I’m not sure if this group spent a lot of time on the turn but I caught them on the 11th at the tee box as a solo. They didn’t let me play through and just ruined the round with how slow they were playing. The biggest problem with a lot of the courses around orlando is pace, often a lack of rangers to speed them up.

The course was fun overall however a lot of the holes could have used some work done to them. Greens were very fast and for the most part in good shape. Some approach areas/fairways clearly needed a lot of work. Overall, fun course to play, and I would go back again.

Enjoyable early morning weekend round. Fairways and greens were in good shape. There were some noticeable areas of diseased grass that should be addressed especially when you’re charging $120 for summer rounds. Practice areas are great but the range is usually irons only.

Course is in really good shape. It rained during my round and the water drained away quickly. It’s easier than it looks until you get to the 18th which I immediately named card-wrecker. Great experience over all. Highly recommended.

Beautiful course challenging but not so difficult you can’t enjoy the layout and the beauty.

staff is first rate and they offer great extra touches to make it a really enjoyable experience

Staff very friendly! Course great - so good we played 36!!

Great course layout! Challenging and makes you use every club in your bag. $100 is to steep with the shape of the tee boxes and fairways (some not all) but you can tell they really take care of the course. Staff was awesome, greens were punched 2-3 weeks ago and super slow but rolled true.

Some fairways and roughs had disease. Greens were still furry and slow; recovering from aeration. Fun layout and unique design. Cool finish on 18 with the island green

Definitely worth playing. The course was in great shape and has great views. It was challenging, but fun to play.

We paid resort prices for a course that did not have resort maintenance. We had to hit off mats instead of grass at the driving range, and it was irons only. The staff is great, and the layout is nice. But there were two many rough spots on fairways for the price.

First time playing hawks landing and was very impressed.

Started on the 10th tee and back nine is a good challenge of the blacks with plenty of water and finishing with the island green on 18.

Front nine has less water but is still a challenge.

Greens are recovering after aeriation and won’t be long till they are very good.

Lightning in the area and we took cover on the 9th after the claxon back in the pro shop/ buggy area. Starter would not let us carry on our round until he said it was clear although no lightning was witnessed. People on the course carried on playing and as long as they didn’t come in they carried on their round. We weren’t aloud out again. Upsetting watching people still playing and we weren’t allowed out. Only managed to complete 8 holes, then further issues with teeoff USA. Would love to have completed round.
