Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

For 130$ I’d expect a little better kept course. Greens were horrible and the sand was hard as a rock. Fairways was ok but not great. Staff seamed annoyed at us for asking to point us in the direction of the first tee. We are from north central Ohio and honestly our muni courses are twice as better and cost half the price. I’d go back and play 18 if the price was 60ish$.

I played here and you need to be a where there are roots under the grass even 30 yards out from some of the trees

I injured my right arm hitting my shot from 1 on them and then other places the grass is like it is floating on water and your ball plugs

I really wasn’t expecting this stuff

Played for the first time over a spring break trip. Most holes were in good shape and beautiful. Greens are very slow. Biggest issue was that most sand traps were unplayable and not manicured at all. I was in three sand traps and had to move my ball out or to the 10% of the trap that actually had good sand. My big issue was with their customer service. Sandestin golf resorts must contract it out off-shore. They were useless. I called the day before to see if we could use the range and was told it was open to the public. Then I was told you needed to be a resort guest. They then transferred me to the pro shop but there was no answer and was sent back to another rep who I had to explain my entire question to again. I did eventually get in touch with the clubhouse and was told the range is closed for maintenance. We also had one set of clubs that didn't make it and customer service said we could share a bag in that situation. We get to the course and were told no and had to spend another $80 for club rental. Total cost for 2 golfers $330. I get that the golf bag thing is common but that confirms that customer service is useless and has zero knowledge of this location. For this cost I expected a little more but was still one of the lower costs in the area. Golf itself was great except for the traps and a few fairways that were not in the best shape. Pro shop staff was very nice and apologetic for their customer service.

Course was very nice. Greens were super slow but consistent. Driving range was a little too crowded, but we got there early so no big deal.

The layout is great, and the staff is friendly. However, the price of $130 for greens that don’t roll true and some that are filled with weeds seems unreasonable.

This is a fun course. Not super tough, but definitely has its challenges.

Very nice but challenging course with lots of water and sand. Course was in good shape for the time of year. Greens were a little long and putted slow but held shots and were in good condition. Would definitely play it again.

Course in great shape for the time of year, greens were pretty good. #2 fairway, disappointing, had to move the ball to hit 2nd shot.

Staff was good, with the exception of a fivesome out then a foursome then our twosome, seemed to be a lot of twosomes, which feels slow, but actually was only 7 minutes slow, but when it’s 2 then 2 then 5 then 4 then us it feels slow

The course was nice to play. The pace of the greens were very slow.

Greens great shape. Most tee boxes nice. Only complaint was some of the sand traps needed sand and raked. Very friendly staff. Let me as a single tee early when another groups do isn’t show. Got 18 done in about 2 hours

Course was generally in very good shape with the exception of the bunkers which are in desperate need of work sand more sand Some of the tee boxes also are in need of some leveling The greens were very healthy and ran true but were very slow

This was a great course to play at yesterday. Weather was perfect. Tea boxes were very nice. Fairways were groomed very nicely. The greens were good putting, but they were a little bit on the slow side.

Incredible views, greens were slow, but very consistent.

The course is very fair and playable. The greens were just ok.

The course was in great shape, beautiful greens. Lots of water around the holes required accuracy off the tee. The wind off the big water was absolutely brutal -3 clubs. Not sure why a nice course would allow a five some but they did so play came to screeching halt when we caught up to them on the back nine.
