Blue Monster Value

I’ve read a few reviews about how the course doesn’t warrant the price tag and I have to disagree.

I arrived an hour early and shopped. Took in the whole scene. I hit balls at the range, chipped, then putted. Went right out to the first tee without a back up. No one was up my butt about my time or anything.

Cart girl came up to me on the third hole and three times after.

The course itself is sprawling and beautiful. There are iconic holes and plenty of views.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I had a 2:30pm tee time and teed off around 2:25 when I saw no one in front of me. Played the round in three hours and fifty minutes. I wasn’t in a hurry, but the threesome in front of me was pretty slow. I caught up to them on the fourth hole and I’m kinda glad I did. I was on vacation and was happy to enjoy the sights and being able to relax. I smoked a cigar and took it all in.

I recommend the Blue Monster to you all.

Nice overall

Golf cart kept shutting off when not even exceeding the cart speed limit. We were told the beverage cart would be around and never saw it once. Played Silver Fox course which is a distance from the clubhouse so 2 waters is not enough and the course is so far from the clubhouse that driving to it during the round was not an option to get more. Clubhouse is probably the nicest I have ever been in and the staff was unbelievably nice. I would recommend this course just pack a lunch.

Not worth it

First of all when you come in to the parking lot they want you to valet cost $35 next if you want to Self park cost $20 the starter was supposed to pare me up with somebody instead he said go out on your own which would make it a long day overall condition of the course was just OK for the price you’re paying hopefully in the future conditions get better for that price

Great course

The course was in great shape. Strangely, the greens were much faster than the practice green. Only parking option is a $40 valet. However, the system is good getting your clubs down to the loading area.

Hard for a first timer to find range and tee box beacause of staff

The course was amazing, beautiful layout and difficult. A lot of water, but very well maintained and the weather was perfect.

The only problem was at the beginning when I was trying to find the pro shop, and then figure out where the range was, and then where the first tee box was, it was a challenge and I lost a lot of time because the staff just wasn´t helpful.

I would ask for directions, and they would give me just "go straight ahead and you´ll find it", but I just didn´t find it.

Great day!

We had a great day, nice weather, nice layout and great service. The place is ultra clean and service just great. I would play there more often if it was owned by someone else. One thing is sure the people who run this place are doing a fantastic job!

Slow round

My 2nd time at Doral. Both times there should have been other players in my group but both times had to play alone. Few groups before me there were 6 guys who all played. You can imagine the pace and waiting for every shot. Propably my last time there.
