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.

Great Layout. Poor conditions
Very disappointed in the condition of the course. The course looks like it has been not been taken care of regularly. The layout is as good as it gets.
Chris
What a beautiful course. Manicured with flowers plants as well as wildlife. Challenging as well.
Great Value right now
I played this course for $ 65.00 this week and it is in good condition. Great value! the staff treats you great and really go above and beyond to make your day great.

Great course conditions
I really enjoyed playing this course and i look forward to playing it again.
Great Layout, Aerated Greens
Had a good time playing here even though there was a scramble tournament going on. Not a long course, really liked the layout.
First time...
I had heard so much about this course that I couldn't wait to play. Weather was an issue for a while and the greens had recently been aeriated (sp?) but the course was in great shape nonetheless. Greens were very quick and true despite the poking. Love the layout of the course, very playable. Can't wait to play it again!
An Oasis Amongst All The Buildings
Absolutely beautiful, this is one of those courses you feel privileged to play on. It starts with the immaculate entrance and buildings and continues all the way around the course. It is picturesque, especially when you see the skyscrapers in the distance.
Only disappointment was that the restaurant only appeared to have ready made sandwiches (for lunch) but I think this would be that it was mid week in summer and not overly busy.
Well worth the visit
Great Course
Has the feel of an exclusive club without the price. Course was in great condition, especially for the middle of the summer in South Florida.
Great place to play
This is a great course to play, kind of difficult but very good conditions
Great price after 1:00 pm
Awesome
Great venue. Top notch amenities and service.
Great Track
Growing up playing golf in the northeast, this reminded me somewhat of home (-squirrels +lizards, -trees +water). 6500ish yards with a challenging layout and solid undulation on the greens. Well maintained, great staff. I look forward to playing here again.
About what I expected
Played at The Diplomat Tues July 5 and based on other reviews I had read it was about what I expected. It is a good course that could be and probably once was great. Customer service was awesome. Clubhouse is immaculate. It's a pretty standard resort layout. Fairways are a little tight. But there is room to hit your ball. Greens were pretty smooth and fast. A few weeds in then but you wouldn't notice. Fairways were nicely mown. Rough was thick and full of weeds. I get it. It's rough. But if you are a top notch golf resort gotta get rid of the weeds. Especially around the greens. Tee boxes needed some work. Several were chewed up and had a lot of sand on them. I paid $60 for the round and felt like that was the most I would want to pay for this course. The course I play at home in NC is about half that much and in better shape. But I understand that things are more expensive in S Florida. I think if you can get a deal it's worth playing. So look online and last minute and give it a try.
