Seaview, A Dolce Hotel

3 holes are dog legs, the rest are all straight. Waste area (fescue) is pretty, but contains high concentrations of creeping vines in the poison ivy family. Purported views of the bay were unimpressive, (unless you're into wind farms and hotel buildings) in Atlantic city in the distance, overlooking what was marsh and bog area. Greens were slow. I played two weeks after the LPGA had an event on the property. Pretty short course from the tips, several blind approach shots and a couple blind tee shots. Tee boxes were in good shape.

Overall a great experience playing this golf course. Conditions were nice, greens were awesome, but Some of the tee boxes were a bit beat up nothing too serious. Staff was great, the pace of play was acceptable, and the two ladies, they paired us with were awesome. I do wish the snack bar is open, as I was hungry before the round. I will be sure to eat something next time before I play the there.

The starter was exceptionally rude to us, even upon arrival. No idea what happened to him today. We had back to back tee times with friends, and when one of the foursomes arrived 20 minutes early, he made us go to the tee despite no one being around. We did him a favor and did not argue despite requesting we wait and tee off at our proper time. Then, inexplicably on hole 14 came up to on us the green as the group behind us arrived at the tee. He demanded we skip holes and forced us to go to 17. We never held up anyone and that was literally the first time we even saw the group behind us. This man refused to accept he could be wrong, said our pace of play was horrendous (I shot a 87, when did bogey golf become so criminal? Absolutely awful service. I have never once been questioned on pace of play in my entire life. I could understand if we were a real nuisance on the course, I was chewing my sunflower seeds having a great round with my wife. The starter is the most miserable man-child in South Jersey.

I have never felt more unwelcome at a golf course. Not only do they not have women’s tees but then they came around to say we were taking too long even though 2 out of the 4 of us had to use different tees. The cart staff came around to us and said that our pace of play was too slow even though we never had anyone waiting on us. He then continued to say we were only hitting the ball 10 feet and that we had to skip two holes or go talk to the people in the golf shop even though it was closer. Our friends were golfing behind us and they did not make them skip any holes or harass them. The only difference being that we had girls in our group. If you want to feel insulted and discriminated against then definitely check out seaview!

Staff at Seaview are always professional, courteous and friendly. Very manageable course for intermediate golfers. Numerous large bunkers and tall grass areas are the major challenges. Greens, fairways all in great shape. For many golfers that typically play white tees, the Blue/White hybrid tees might be a good choice to lengthen the course and increase rating/slope. A little expensive for my skill level.

Two great courses and wonderful accommodations. I will def be returning
