Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

Loved the course, but for the price not sure I’d fully consider it. I know it’s a tourist area and prices are higher (compared to Ohio prices Im use to), but I find it difficult to pay $110 on a course. Fairways were good but the two things I care about the most were mediocre. Tee boxes were pretty tore up and green we very grainy and not so good. I’d still give the course a 4/5 since it’s a course I’d play once just to see, but wouldn’t pay that high price again. I played Regatta and preferred that.

We thoroughly enjoyed our round. The course was in great shape despite the fact that the greens were still recovering from aeration. The course offered a great value.

Greens are infested and not in good condition. I would not play it unless that’s fixed. It’s rough and dry patches with tall grass

First time playing this course and thoroughly enjoyed my round. A nice blend of length and challenges. As well as some great scenery from the holes on the bay.

Would definitely play this course again.

I have never played on worst greens in my life. Putting on the fringe would've been easier than the actual green

As you know, many of the sand traps are under repair. Horrible.

Would highly recommend..It was a little pricey, but worth itt if you’re not looking for more of a budget friendly round. Staff was great and very helpful.

Greens are horrible. No one to monitor slow play.

We played Monday 5/27/24. No mention of aeration before during or after paying. They should have discounted the fees. It had probably been a week or so, just guessing. Nice course, just wish we were warned.

I have been playing golf here for about 5 years. The greens at this time of the year is not in perfect condition, but it's playable. Some of the greens needs TLC, just like the greens on hole #10. There were some bald spots. Some of the greens were very slow, and some of the greens also needs a little bit more shaving. It's inconsistent greens... otherwise, it's a nice golf course to work on your game...

First, let me say the golf course itself is a gem and when conditions are good then this course is worth every bit of the $150+ greens fee.

However, I played in June 2024 and the greens were incredibly slow, hairy, and grainy. Florida weather has been normal with little rain so there was no real excuse for a $175 course to have greens in that condition.

Next, the price comes with free range access yet there were no range balls available 30min before my tee time. Several other golfers were out of luck as well and asking why all the buckets were empty at 130pm.

Finally, the clubhouse was closed when our round ended around 6pm - so no bathrooms, no snack bar/drinks, no merchandise available to purchase.

All these things are acceptable for a $80 course - but at $175 I can’t recommend this course to a friend.

Fantastic course. Shot placement and distance control are key here. This makes it a fun and challenging course. Plenty of holes look like the signature hole which made it enjoyably challenging to figure out which hole actually was the signature hole. The driving range was closed which was a downside because this is a course you absolutely need to warmup to play. Overall well worth the money. Will play again.

Not overly difficult. Fairways and rough were in great condition. The greens were still recovering from the aeration and were slow and unpredictable. The bunkers were hot garbage.
