Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

The layout, conditions, and overall experience were excellent from start to finish. The only reason I can’t give it a full 5 stars is that the greens had just been plugged and sanded which, to the course’s credit, they disclosed upfront at booking. That transparency is appreciated, but it does make it hard to justify paying full price when the greens aren’t rolling at their best. Once they’ve recovered, this would easily be a flawless round. Will definitely be back when the greens are back in top form. Make sure you ask about the difference between 16A and 16B. That was not very clear and finding the tee box took a minute.

Nice course. Nice layout. The only real problem was that I happened to play during the time when the greens were being aerated

The course was a lot of fun. The greens had just been punched so it was very hard to make a put

Day was very nice playing with my son. Fairways in great shape; greens were a little rough and slow.

Enjoyed a great day!

Starters and proshop as well as bag attendants all get 5 stars. These people know how to take care of you.

From the help with tee times to the clubhouse attendants, top notch. Thanks again for your help.

The course layout and fairways were nice, tee boxes just okay but the conditions of the greens were not good. They were punched and extremely sandy due to aerification. I will give it another shot in a few months when the greens are back to normal.

Played here after aeration and it was still pristine layout is fun and playable for 15+ handicap without death by golf. Views are amazing on this course!

Course is in excellent condition and a pleasant experience for us.

Course is in great condition even though they just aerated. Greens were sandy as expected but didn’t take anything away from the experience. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Enjoyable round.

This course if laid out well. Bunkers are challenging, but fair. The fairways were perfect. Staff are very friendly and very willing to answer questions.

Have wanted to play the raven for years when coming go Destin. Had played the sandestin links before but no other experience at the resort courses. Price was $109 hotdeal which seemed reasonable. The design is great. Very challenging with awesome water features and well-placed bunkers. Clubhouse was a little less than expected given Kelly and Regattas clubhouses. Halfway house was nice touch. Only letdown was course conditions for the price. Greens were pretty slow and some tee boxes were in poor shape from the whites. Would return but would not pay more than I did.

Course was in pretty good shape. Greens were a little slow due to sand left after aeration. My buddy said he didn't think he had ever seen a course with so many bunkers (he hit about 20 of them) but they didn't get in my way as much. I look forward to playing again when I'm down there.

This course was recommended to me by a friend. There were great views of the bay on several holes. Overall course was in great shape but the greens really needed some work . Odd clover like stuff growing in several and they could have used a good rolling as many were bumpy. I had a hot deal so price wasn't terrible but paying full price would have been very upsetting. I will give it another chance next time I'm in Destin.

Great course, layout, condition, but cram too many people sometimes.

Baytowne is my favorite course in the greater Destin area. It is challenging, well designed and a real joy to play. My hope is that the rumors that Baytowne will be substantially eliminated due to the developers desire to build more condos are not true. Baytowne is a real gem and should remain a great golf course!

Great course with some challenging holes. Friendly and frequent cart service during the round. Starter was super nice. Greens were somewhat inconsistent in terms of speed but true / no funky breaks. My only complaint was on hole #18 …… all the fairway sprinklers were on while we were playing (5:00 in the afternoon). No one monitoring. The fairway was completely soaked and muddy ….. and we needed to move our balls to avoid the intense sprinklers. A disappointing way to end a nice round.

Great course. Staff was great and course was very nice

Played for the first time. Very nice course staff was very friendly. Highly recommend playing this one

Played Baytowne as a foursome at a 7:30am tee time. Absolutely beautiful course, well maintained and perfect weather! 2 groups behind us with zero issues, cart girls present to provide beverages. Would ABSOLUTELY play again!!!!
