Beautiful Course
Definitely worth playing if you are in the area. Noice layout and challenging..
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club!
Definitely Play Here While in Destin
This is a very nice course. They spent some time ND money getting it all fixed up a few years back and it has paid off. Fast greens are in mint condition. Nice fairways and fun layout. Challenging obstacles. Plays long. A bit harder than other courses nearby. Staff very friendly. Nice range and putting area. Brand new carts for 2024. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.

Best sand traps in Destin
If you like traps the sand is great for your game. The greens are lightning fast. You’d better be on your game to play here.
So fun
I love that they had senior tees for those of us who aren’t long hitters. Everything went perfectly. We were paired up with a nice couple. The round was so fun!
Beautiful course
My favorite course in Destin area. Excellent practice facilities, course layout and some of the best greens in the area. I would play it more but it's a bit pricy unless you catch a Golf Now deal. Play it if you get the chance.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.
Love playing this course but
I always love playing Regatta Bay and it’s my favorite course I the area. I was disappointed to learn that the entire course was cart path only when I go to the starter but with the heavy rain we had I understood it. After I started and walking all over the course I was like man there’s no reason the whole course should be cart path only. Oh well that’s my only complaint and the upside is that I got my steps in.
great course
One of my favorite courses in Destin. Excellent practice area. Greens were perfect. The layout is nice. If you come to Destin, you should try Regatta Bay.
Slow Pace Play
Pace of play was slow since match play groups were playing and slowing up three groups behind them! The match play groups should tee off at 8 am. Very frustrating waiting every shot!
The course conditions were sub par for the fees charged! I understand it is winter; however if green fees are high then the course should be in pristine condition but it wasn’t. Probably won’t play this course again since it is over priced!

Best in Destin
By far and away best course I’ve played in Destin.
Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Driving Range, Putting Green and Chipping Area are great.
There is no comparison to the 2 other courses I have played : The Raven and Kelly Plantation.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.
very nice place for the average golfer
I'm a snow bird who loves to play golf. I'm an 19 handicap and found this pleasant course in Destin. The people were great and the course was plenty for me. The weather was in the 50s but sunny
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.
Great Shape
Hats off to the staff! The course is in great shape and the greens are excellent.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.
Reschedule due to Friday 01/12 storm
Pro-shop register personnel were kind, knowledgeable and helpful. We were able to use the driving and putting green. I would rate the staff a 10 on a 1-10 scale.
The only issue was that the pace of play was a little slow. We found our three golfers behind a group of five golfers.
We started very early afternoon a but the eighteenth hole was played in darkness.
The ranger should have been more proactive.
Thank you
