Located in the city of Mesa, the Royal Palms golf course is a nine-holer with a risk-and-reward style layout. Royal Palms offers a mix of par 3s and par 4s that is suitable for all skill levels of golfer. Although it is a short course, there are challenges to keep golfers on their toes. Two lakes form water hazards that come into play on over half of the holes. Royal Palms G.C. also has strategically placed sand bunkers throughout the entire design that can affect shots.

Very slow. Need someone to organize the people leaving the 1st tee box. It’s a free for all. People leave when they want to. Two at a time or even singles. Should be four at a time when this busy.

Short course

Not bad for a practice round. Greens where quick and most holes were very short. Some water but not an issue with minimal skill. Fairways and greens were very hard. Pace of play was pretty slow considering the lack of difficulty. Women at check in was pleasant. No other staff was present at the time. Would probably play again for a quick warm up.
