Mediocre

We had an early tee time and there was no food or beverages available (granola bars, coffee, or even water). The staff was incredibly friendly and eventually found bottled water. This was extremely surprising as it's a resort course and I'd imagine most people are not from the area. Needless to say, it didn't get off to great start.

The course itself was in pretty good condition, but the layout was definitely on the bland side. Greens were very well kept and fairways were good except for a few patches being reseeded. There were 2 elevated par 3s (holes 2 and 8) with great views of the facility. The routing of the holes is the most awkward I've ever seen and there were multiples times where we'd had to double back to holes, and several very long cart rides between holes.

Pace of play was amazing. We teed off first and literally didn't see another golfer until the 8th hole.

Course was very wet

It was wet, driving range closed, so that was disappointment. Course had some wet spots, Drainage problems I suppose. Holes could be marked clearer. Thx Wayne

Expected more for a PGA Tour Trump Course

I came in expecting to be awed by a course they play a PGA tour event on. Not exactly what I thought it would be.

Played here on Dec 20th. It had been raining a lot in the last few days an they weren't opening the International course at all today due to wet conditions.

First, the good. I was the 2nd tee time out, passed the 1st on the 6th hole and played in less than 3 hours. For the weather they've had the course dried out pretty well. No standing water but some soggy areas throughout. The staff was all very friendly and even grabbed my wedding ring from the cart after I left the grounds without it. Oops. The course is relatively flat but has lots of hazards to make it challenging enough. Overall, I enjoyed the layout.

Now the bad. After paying for my greens fee, I look to purchase a yardage book as they are always good souvenirs and help tremendously when playing a new course. They DONT have any!! Great, no memory, no lay up yardage. Well they'll have GPS... Nope. The course is marked well they tell me. Not so much. Not many sprinklers, basically your typical 100, 150, 200 yard markers in the center. I found myself guessing on a lot of shots. The conditions were as good as I expected. There were patches of repaired grass on greens an fairways that didn't look so good. Some of the tee boxes had weeds and bare spots. The views weren't great. Houses, condos, and roads lined a few holes on the front nine. The back nine was more scenic with a few holes closer to the ocean.

Overall. I was happy I played. Score wasn't good. But with the conditions, wind, and no sleep. I am glad I played it. Though it may not seem like much, I still wish I had my yardage book.

Course offers a good challenge. Greens and course were well kept. A handful of holes offer nice views of the ocean.

Played both Trump courses. I recommend playing the International course instead of the Championship course. The International course has a better layout but the Championship course has better more challenging greens. The staff was very accomodating and I would recommend both courses to anyone.

The International course includes holes with elevation changes (unexpected) and thus creating picturesque views.

I played this course as a "single" and the pace of play was not a factor. The course itself was in great shape and I preffered the layout of the International course rather than the Championship course. I would recommend this course to anyone when visting Puerto Rico.

Tom Kite is a quality golf course designer.

This was my first opportunity to play a Tom Kite designed course. We thoroughly enjoyed the layout. While the Championship course was in good condition, I must note that conditions did not rise to the level that should be expected of a Trump golf course. Let's hope that the Trump golf organization does not lower its maintenance standards associated with the Trump golf courses.

First Trump course I played and was impressed.

The staff was friendly and the course was in great shape. The cart died on the 14th hole but someone came out in about 10 minutes. The starter suggested that it could happen but it didn't deter us from having a good round. We played the Championship course expecting to be near the ocean but it is only one hole. Will try to play the other one if I get a chance.

Great Course

The course is in great shape. Fairways and greens are excellent and knowing the pin placements were helpful.

Nice course

I liked the course. Only thing that struck me as weird is that I returned a dozen balls (didn't lose as many as I anticipated) and the pro shop took out each ball and inspected. It was analogous to someone scrutinizing your $100 bill for 2 min. Suggestion: if someone pays $200 for a round do not do this.

Other than that, was a great course

Just beautiful

First hole has you looking out at rain forest mountains in the backdrop, it's stunning. They have a hot deal every day at 11:50 that you can use the golf caddy deal on. Original cost would have been $400 but after a little discussion with golf now customer service we were able to use the coupon.

The course was a little "tricked up" for a resort-style course.

I played the International Course, which is not laid out very logically. It also goes through low-land wetland areas that are not very visitor-friendly. The course layout was also a little quirky, with par 3's that play across a roadway, and blind tee shots to fairways. Course probably plays better a second time around once you know the course layout.
