About Seaview, A Dolce Hotel

Seaview, A Dolce Hotel, was founded in 1914 as an exclusive country club. It has a long history of hosting professional golfers, presidents, rock stars and celebrities. In 1942, Sam Snead won the PGA Championship on a combination of holes of what is now Seaview's Pines and Bay courses. The Bay course, a regular host of the LPGA Tour, delivers the views beyond Reeds Bay to the Atlantic City Skyline. The hotel includes 34,500 square feet of meeting and event space, indoor and outdoor pools, three restaurants and a fitness center. The historic charm of the interior feels like a trip back in time.

Not Your Best Value Option

I played this course twice during a wet weekend with no expectations considering the weather, but still hopeful considering the price. Firstly it seemed like the pines course took a backseat considering the LPGA was in town for the bay course. The greens seemed to not have been cut or rolled for a good amount of time so the speed was inconsistent but mostly slow. The geography of the greens was top notch, but due to the slow conditions, they didn’t play how they could. I’m sure during dry conditions with a lower cut, they would be menacing. Pace of play was fast with the poorer weather on my first round but slow on my second round. The course was blissfully challenging and well built, but with a price tag of over $100 at some times, even for the cheaper of the two course, the price tag just doesn’t match the course. I’m from Northeastern Pennsylvania where tee times at my best local courses don’t top $60. If I’m on a trip to an expensive, prestigious, and historic golf course, I’d expect a lot more.

Lots of doglegs

Seaview Pines is well run and a very solid course to play. Get ready for lots of doglegs which makes the round unique and interesting

Staff is amazing and the experience there feels country club-ish which is nice

First time at pines with rental clubs - Great round!

Fun course. Stayed at the Seaview for a wedding. Walked in to the golf shop and was recommended to play pines since it’s more challenging and bay only had afternoon tee times. Booked on golf now rather than direct cuz the variable pricing.

Fairways and grass are kept in very good condition. There are a lot of bunkers. Sand is light and easy to manage.

Rental clubs were about $65. Callaway ELYTE.

If you have seasonal allergies, you may suffer due to the pollen.

Only issue is that pace of play will land you a little under 5 hours…. And it feels really long by the time you get to hole 15. 8:20am tee time and we finished at 1pm. Otherwise, great outting!

Good, but not for the price

When I signed up for a $170 tee time, I expected something amazing. What I got was good, but definitely not worth that much money. The course looked good, the staff was friendly, and the pace of play was good (played with a couple that were members, so their course advice was super helpful). BUT the greens were the size of postage stamps and undulated as if it was a giant mini golf course. In addition, the ball never rolled true on putts - you could see the ball popping up from the moment it came off the putter face all the way to wherever it was going to stop. Speed was ok, at least. If this course were $100, I’d come back every time.

Iconic Course

Had a good day. Course was in good shape but Greens were bumpy with poa anna.

Bunkers needed to be raked. Too many foot prints and they had not been raked which is unacceptable for a weekend with the greens fees so high.

Loved course by ruined by slow play

Luv course,staff amenities, unfortunately My 4 some was first group off the tee after a charitable tournment, and I had to leave after 9 holes the tournament player were backed up on #10. 3 groups so I had to leave it was impossible, and playing thru wasn’t an option. Our group should have been aware of this prior. Guys who stayed said it was over 5 hrs+ and frustration set in.

Good Shape

Course was in good condition. Fairways and greens were nice. Some tee boxes were a bit beat up but not terrible. Course is a reasonably tough track but a bit vanilla. Overall a good experience.

Good course

Seaview Pines is a good parkland style course. It has many deep bunkers. Fairways, greens and bunkers are in excellent condition. Not much else to say. It is a gold standard course. I play both courses the Pines and the Bay. The LPGA players the Bay every June.
