West at Jacaranda Golf Club
About
Both the East Course and the West Course at Jacaranda Golf Club are four-star rated by Golf Digest. These challenging golf courses weave across a tropical landscape covered with blue lagoons, tranquil ponds, and swaying palm trees. The West Course is the shorter of the two courses but it is no less challenging. Strategy and skill, rather than length, are the determining factors on this layout. With water hazards to avoid, numerous tricky doglegs, and tight bunkering along the greensides and landing areas, this course is definitely a shot-maker's layout. The raised, sloped greens and undulating, tree-lined fairways will require some careful maneuvering. The outward nine is slightly more forgiving than the demanding inward nine, which features more boldly contoured green complexes. The challenging, yet versatile design of both golf courses has made Jacaranda one of southeast Florida's most popular golfing destinations.

Great course!
Really nice course. Challenging from the forward tees making it fun. Great staff! Greens were in great shape, fairways were in good shape. Will make it a regular playing spot!
This course is well maintained
Played here on a beautiful day with hardly anyone playing cause of corona cancellations. The course was fantastic except some of the greens had some brown which did not effect the putting at all they said it was due to some colder weather then usual over winter. Would come back here without hesitation
Slow Day on the west..
Still one of the best conditioned public courses in broward county. Conditions of the course were mostly perfect. 1 or 2 tee boxes need help. Greens rolling slow for Jacaranda but are in good shape. Fairways, rough and bunkers are as expected.
Usually the starters are on top of things. We started the day with 3 groups on the first hole and it stayed that way the entire round. Made it impossible to get any kind of rhythm. Saw a ranger on 9, said he would do something but it never changed. Cart girl was very nice and saw her 3 times.
We're glad to hear you found the course to be in great condition, but disappointed to hear about the pace of play. We will address that with our staff. We hope to see you soon.
Always Enjoy This Course!
The fairways and tee boxes were in excellent condition, but I was disappointed in some of the green that had some "burned" or diseased spots, In addition, the bunkers I encountered (thankfully not many!) had more stones and other debris than sand... so much that I was concerned about damaging my club! I was paired with another single player and a twosome of ladies... all quite congenial so it was a fun round.
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We're glad you enjoyed your round and we assure you we are working to get those bunkers into great condition. See you soon!
Thank you for rating our West Golf Course. We hope to see you soon.
Great course in FLL
Pros, the course, the starter
Cons: the traps poorconditions, the 4 soemin front being slow and unrespectfull to the course and marshall doing nothing
We appreciate you taking the time to post a review. While we're happy to hear you were pleased with the course and most of our staff, we are sorry you experienced slow play during your round. We will address this issue directly with our ranger staff.
Thank you. We look forward to providing you with a 5 star experience soon.
Still Solid Track
The easier of the two sides but don't underestimate the West Course. A solid test of golf awaits on a very attractive course. The greens didn't look great (a little burnt looking) but rolled well. Fairways are lush and ball doesn't get very dirty on this course as there are few sand spots. A little expensive but worth the extra investment. In a region of diminishing golf courses Jacaranda is still a solid track
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We're happy to hear you enjoy Jacaranda and hope you'll be back soon.
Thank you for rating our club with 5 stars. See you soon!
Worst pace of play I have ever experienced.
Starter has to deal with too much. Line up bottleneck just to get balls from him to take to range. Have to come back to starter after. One starter for two courses. Sent us out right behind group in front. Should have 10 minute times. No Marshall’s to help with pace of play. After nine as we were about to go to 10 we saw a new group had been inserted after the group we were following and before us. Waited 20 minutes on tenth tee. Most holes had three groups on them. Par 3’s had four groups on them. Quit after 11. Explained situation to pro shop. Ears were closed to the concerns expresed. Pro started his response: “Unfortunately...”. That was the last word I needed to hear. We left. Never to return. The group behind us also quit and followed us into the proshop expecting fair treatment. They expressed their disappointment again without any redress or apology. They also said they would never play it again. They were from Michigan. We are from Ontario.
We are very sorry to hear about your experience at Jacaranda. Our Pro Shop staff did bring this situation to our attention prior to your review. It is never our intention to have a poor pace of play and we do understand how that can negatively impact your round. This is an unfortunate and rare occurrence as our state-of-the-art GPS system and rangers usually keep the pace to just over 4 hours during our busiest days. In speaking with our Pro he did intend to offer to find a spot for you to play on the other golf course but he did not get the chance. We sincerely hope you will give us another opportunity to exceed your expectations in the future.
Doglegs
I played de West Course, and the starter put me with 2 italian seniors golfers very friendly and a hcp 5 from New York, great 4some¡¡
Because an unusual windy and low temperture day, the course play different, but we started playing from the gold, from where its better no use the driver because of the doglegs with water, in some holes you will find problems, so in the back nine we changed to the tips, where you need a good driver against wind to let u a distance with irons...
The bunkers need some maintenance and the greens speed were at 10 aprox with different cuts..
I liked the ondulations on some greens and the protections around
We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your foursome. We hope to see you again soon.
Another great day
Another fun day of golf. Staff and course excellent as always. Only negative was the foursome in front of us who apparently were only occasional golfers playing from back tees. Good grief. Took forever to pla:y. Need a course marshal.
Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed the course as well as our staff. We do have rangers on the golf course and we will be sure to speak to them about this situation. We hope to see you soon.
Thank you! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Best!
5 stars for the desk staff!
5 stars for guys at the bag drops!
5 stars for the starter man!
Played the West course.
Fairways... super grass...the best in the region!
Greens need more love! ...not the best lot of sand...(illness...) but good rolling true.
Pace of play... 4h15.
Enjoy!
P.S. We like more special price !
Thanks!
Thank you for the great review! We look forward to seeing you again and to providing you with a 5 star experience!
Great day of golf
Played as threesome in under 4 hours. The only reason not a 5 is greens need a little work. Little slow and inconsistent. Otherwise excellent!
Thank you! We look forward to providing you a 5 star experience next time you play Jacaranda!
Fast Track
It’s a fun course. Greens are a little rough but everything else is great. Played a 3 hr. 15 min round which is unheard of in season
Wow! That's a great pace of play. We're glad you enjoyed yourself and look forward to seeing you soon.
Thank you for the 5 star rating. We hope to see you again very soon.
That's great to hear! We look forward to your next round.
