Westin Hilton Head Island Resort and Spa

Biggest issue - A course of this caliber should certainly have GPS on cart. The standard is the standard and this is below the standard.

Greens were recently aerated but this was not a huge issue.

The greens need work as the ball would take different bounces. Seem just aerate

Greens were dry and rough fairways better condition then the greens,

Second time I’ve played here and was an enjoyable round . The conditions weren’t the best with the heat and the greens were punched but they discounted the round with an aeration special so that was nice. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Overall, I had a good time.

What a great course to play! Greens were awesome and the layout was good. My only complaint is that we did not know that we would be nowhere near the clubhouse to stop after 9 holes and get water, refill drinks, etc and take a short break. It is a great course, but for a hot day in July we needed a mid course break. (The 9th hole is very far from clubhouse and because it was not a busy time of day the cart person was not out and about after 5th hole.)

I do not drive the ball long so I played the Black/Green tees Still had 11 holes where I hit fairway/hybrids into the greens. Shot 77 with 31 putts with 12 FIRs and 11 GIRs, so it was a pretty good day. Plenty of doglegs to negotiate. If you do not hit a long ball, put aside your ego and have a better chance of scoring from the forward tees. You'll enjoy it.

First time playing Port Royal. Staff was friendly. Course was in great shape. Beverage carts on course. Layout allowed for various shots and used almost all the clubs in my bag. Few areas being repaired but nothing that couldn't be moved just a bit to allow repairs to grow in for future. A few sand traps didn't have much sand and were under repair. Just don't go in the sand and you're fine! 😃 I wasn't that lucky! LOL! Will definitely be back!

We were scheduled for RRbut starter mentioned the greens had just been aerated. He said we could go off in Barony. Nice course, wide fairways, small greens. We were behind 4 young guys, 2 of which had clearly never played so it was really slow. They had to wait at times also. Ranger came by and was apologetic but said there were people on every hole.

Finally passed them in 7. Started back but there were 3 groups on 11. Ranger came by and said RR was pretty empty so we could head over there and play as many holes as we liked. We played the front nine, similarly nice course except for the aerated greens. Courses pretty open in HH in the afternoon due to the heat.

Nice courses, nice people.

Only exception is the woman in the pro shop who seems to think she owns the place. Very efficient but robotic. Talks about “my staff”. We left something in the cart, called and someone nicely said he had it and would put in room in the pro shop. Of course she said nothing could be there, but cart guys ( “my” staff) didn’t have it. Back to pro shop where she insisted it wasn’t there,but took my name. Meanwhile here assistant took a second, looked in back room and found it. Front desk queen said there needs to be better communication. Yikes.

I had played this course several years ago.

The course was not the better of the existing courses back then and I believe the conditions have gone down hill.

It would have been helpful if we would have known that the greens had just been aereated. Not a good putting surface.

A very playable course of the Low Country fashion. Lots of sand, water, trees, etc. All in great shape, except the greens were slow. Course does not start near the clubhouse or return after 9 so stock up. Interesting historical markers around the course. Learned "Robber's Row" was unofficial name of the main street thru the Civil War camp there (9, 10 fairways) with various hustlers trying to get into the soldiers' pockets. Great practice area with dual pitching greens. No starter in PM but no worries. *Not sure if he was 'on staff' but a pro (?) acted like the pitching area was his alone. Would play again and recommend.

This is a course that will make the lineup on the yearly trip down to Hilton head. Phenomenal shape. Staff was amazing. Even the residents on the course are great.

This is a gorgeous piece of property. Course was nice, greens rolled pretty true. Some areas are still a work in progress but the effort is there. Would play this 10x over again.

I thought the course was great for the $75. Some rough patches around the greens, but they seemed to roll true once you were on. Some of the tee boxes were a little patchy, but that to be expected in the middle of July. The starter was helpful, and the guy in the pro shop was great!

I think I would go back for the $75 price but if I had to pay the ~$130 regular price, I would rather go to the Robert Trent Jones or George Fazio course imo… they just are in better condition.
