Good Resort Course
Enjoyed our round of golf on this beautifully landscaped course. The staff was friendly. Our only complaint was that at 3:30 p.m. there was no one to take our clubs up the hill to the bag drop area.
Fun day on the links
We really enjoyed playing the Valley course. The layout was very good with a little bit of water and a reasonable amount of sand. The greens were a little bumpy. Maybe they were recently aerated? The only downside was I left a club at the practice range and nobody turned it in. My fault, but there is aa dishonest person somewhere with my club. The cart guys went out of their way trying to find it so a big thanks to them. We would definitely play there again.
Very picturesque
The course is laid out well. Played great on the front 9. Quite a bit of water on back 9, which comes into play. The staff was very friendly...especially the starter. Played as was a deal on Golf now. Otherwise it's too expensive for our taste. Would love to see the fees reduced to around $80-$90. Would play it more then.
Great day at the JW
Staff and conditions were perfect. shoulder season makes for great pace of play!
Absolutely gorgeous
This was out and away the prettiest course I have ever played. The terrain and hazards made it complex and challenging while the multiple long wide fairways offered a chance to redeem ourselves. The beverage cart was pricier than we are used to but that may just be the norm for the area. Still10/10, will play again!
Bag drop
Didn’t have help from bag drop to golf course there used to be a phone to call down it has been removed without replacing it with newer technology but we had a great day all though it was a teeny bit slow on back nine

Nice course, in great condition. Played midday with no one in front or behind us. Finished 18 in 3.5 hours.
Overall fun course with challenging holes. Only complaint, last hole did not know there was water in front of green. My fault should have paid more attention to gps.
Well maintained
This course is by Marriot villas we stayed in. Very convenient. Greens look as if they were aerated recently but rolled ok. Good pace of play. Golf shop, starter and cart service good. Both courses, Palm and Valley challenging.
Greens not worth the price. Only play with a great deal…
Greens not worth the price payed. Great course, but greens are lumpy and burned out in spots. The local $50 goat track’s greens roll smoother. Otherwise a great golf course. Just a little overpriced under the current playing conditions.m
Pleasantly surprised
Both courses at this resort are a lot of fun to play. The greens on the Valley course are nuts. Played in heavy winds and needed a par on 18 to shoot a 79. Ok drive to the top of the hill. I knew the second shot into the green would be difficult because the 18th on their Palms course is a challenge. Got to the top of the hill, had 175 in. The view was a beautiful green, with pond on the left, palms and flowers. Gorgeous hole. Naturally in a howling wind I had to hit 2 extra clubs and hooked a 5 iron into the pond. *sigh*
2 very fun courses at this JW Marriott resort.
There's better options for sure
We were overall rather disappointed with the quality of the course (fairway conditions) and the layout. A great deal of sand protecting elevated greens with many having not enough sand in them to allow proper "outs" especially when short sided. Also, we had a 2pm tee time and the cart woman informed us on the 1st hole that it was "last call". As such, in spite of paying $153 we could get no on course food or drink. Overall, a 6/10.
Avoid! Just an unsupervised Muni course.
Very disappointed. Played like an unsupervised municipal course. A below avg one at that.
The poor service started right away. No one was there to man the Bag Drop and cart the clubs to the golf carts. It’s quite the hike, with carts prohibited in the parking lot (not unusual), some guys were carrying 2 bags (his and his wife).
Once I found the carts I grabbed one, lots of golfers milling around, but no one providing directions to the driving range, putting areas, or first tee (which were all out of sight) - guys in the pro shop were clueless to what was happening down below them.
The driving range was filled with resort guests who thought they were at Top Golf - flip flops, muscle shirts and all. No range attendant on duty. One group waiting never did get to hit balls before their tee time.
Finally found the first Tee, but not the course I was playing, again no starter at either Course. Eventually, I paired up with 2 others on the putting green and we headed out.
Caught a group at No 3 (actually hit into them as they were not visibly in a gully over a hill). Finished the hole and chatted with them as they waited to tee off. There were now 4 groups playing the same hole… and yup consistent of the day, no Marshall to heard the cats.
I quick call to the pro shop only for them to acknowledge no Marshall and no one to send out. The waiting continued for most of the round, only slightly improving in the back 9.
The course, really needs new/competent management. When the only workers you talk to are those taking your $$$ something’s is wrong.
Can’t recommend this course when there are many others equally or better in the valley that provide proper service.
