Editor's Note: Course closed for business.
Located just off the beautiful Gold Coast, the Diplomat Golf and Tennis Club sprawls across a lush terrain covered with thousands of coconut and Royal palms. Towering banyans provide shade throughout the golf course as well. Although it is a public course, it has the look and feel of a private club. It has been a staple of the south Florida community since opening in 1957. The layout features interesting hole designs that incorporate raised greens framed by contoured mounding and more than 75 strategically placed sand bunkers. The water features are hard to miss seeing as they come into play on all but two holes. The golf course is a challenge but not too intimidating for less experienced players. The beautiful scenery alone will be well worth the round.

The course is amazing
I love tomplay this course there is enough water,!!!! The greens are great and it is very well taken care of!!
nice layout
This course had a nice layout to it. The holes were challenging and there was a lot of water hazards on almost every hole. If the water didn't get you, the sand would. The greens were in real good shape. the course was maintained and the staff was excellent
Great tract, great value for your $
Fun course to play. Fairways and greens in terrific shape. First time out it's hard to know when to go for it and when to lay up. You really have to play it a 2nd time to score well. A lot of water that shouldn't come into play....but usually does. No houses to worry about.
Look for "Barky" after the round to take care your clubs. Whether you had a good round or a difficult round, he'll make sure you leave The Diplomat in a good mood!
Great course to play in!
One of the best Fold courses in Miami Broward area. Professional environment and very well kept course.
Excellent FL old school golf course
One of the great old school FL clubs allowing daily fee play. Beautiful clubhouse and grounds. Now managed by Troon Golf. Driving range tee area poor condition (its been dry in So. Fl), chipping green tiny and poor shape. Course layout interesting, variety of holes, on the short side (6500yds tips) all in top condition. Definitley a course to play in Ft Lauderdale area.
Great experience
Played this course for the first time and it was a great experience. Excellent layout, pace was good, and the condition of the course was good.
Will definitely be back.
Played from the gold tee and that was maybe a little short.
A little bit poor for this course
The course layout very nice. Conditions are ok. The proplem is that on Monday othe driving range was closed. We sotart without driving range. That is not acceptable. The pace on the course was
unacceptable. No ranger on the course. To less staff!
Resort Course
Great staff - very friendly and helpful. Play at times seemed slow - luckily many people in front of us only played 9 holes. Nice layout, but it is a resort course which means pace of play could be a challenge. We finished in about 4 1/2 hours but only because we merged with the foursome in front of us...
Would play again if the price is good....
always in great shape
Have played here a number of times. This course is always in great shape. Rounds generally take less than 4 hours. The green fee includes the use of the practice facility. The range, chipping area and putting green are excellent. You can hit from natural grass rather than mats. Most friendly staff too.
Loved this course
One of the better courses I've played in Florida the past 4 years coming here. Challenging, nice layout, great greens. Will definitely play here again. Highly recommended.
untouchable members
Great course, excellent service and layout, though the pace of play was well below par as we stucked behind a foursome of members who never thought to let us get through them for 10 holes!
The marshall was leaving us after 9 that everything is going to be okay but it was really frustrating to see people playing such a golf course with ZERO knwoledge of etiquette, without being warned by an authorized person.
Location location location
I love playing the Diplomat. Located right where i usually stay in Florida. The staff is always happy to greet you. The track is so much fun to play for all levels. Maybe a little too short for the big hitters. For me it's just perfect. The layout is very fair and the conditions were excellent. The resto has a lovely terrace for lunch that overlooks the practice area and first tee.
If you don't feel like traveling far and your in the Aventura or hallendale , Hollywood area. Then this is a great place to go.
Parking
No parking only valet. When you are on vac. Just unloading our golf bags with clothes and beach gear all over the trunk in front of other people wanting in line to unload is embarrassing. I would rather have the option of self parking. The other thing is you can not take the carts up to the range they have plenty of cart paths for parking
