Catalina Course at Omni Tucson National Golf Resort & Spa
Rating Snapshot
About
The Catalina Course is one of two golf courses at Omni Tucson National Resort. It is more well known than its sister course, the Sonoran, since it is both the original layout and it has been host to over 30 PGA Tour events over the years. The Catalina Course is a traditional parkland layout while the Sonoran offers true desert golf, as its name would imply. The challenging design incorporates eight sparkling lakes and a total of 80 bunkers strategically placed throughout. The 18th is touted as one of the finest and most demanding finishing holes on the PGA Tour. This tricky par 4 leaves little room for error with water along both sides of the fairway, it also requires a blind tee shot to a well-protected, elevated green.

#16 plays fairly steeply uphill. I was 16 inches for a birdie, after hitting a solid 135 club from 109 out. Photo submitted by Jonathan5270953 on 08/14/2013

catalina course - tucson nat'l Photo submitted by bellefeuille on 11/25/2012
Great course!
First time playing Tucson National. Challenging but fair course. Was largely in great shape for mid-May, except there were a few wet spots. But the greens were in phenomenal shape. Held well and rolled true.
Enjoyable round.
This is my second time playing Catalina, the first time being shortly before the Cologuard Classic. The course is fun and challenging without being punitive. Even the short par 5s are well protected with water, trees, and doglegs.
Fairways and greens were in good shape. Bunkers need work, lacking sand.
I would and will play it again.
great place to play
Friendly staff from Started and Course Marshall. The Food Cart Rep was friendly as well. Treat yourself to this course.
Omni Outing
Great time. Perfect weather and great course conditions and friendly staff.
A must golf
Perect conditions on the course, from tee box to green. Greens played perfect. Service from when you get there, outside services greated me at my parking spot loaded up my cart. Shop guys, cool as can be. Starter gave great course advice, beverage girls kept me hydrated on time. Oh yeah practice facilities....very nice.
Restrooms anyone?
The greens and fairways were in substandard condition. Worse than that was the lack of restrooms. We only found out AFTER the round that a we had a key to get us into the pool at the turn to use the restrooms there. Even worse, the only restrooms on the back nine were a pair of porta-potties.
Special Day
We had a wonderful day playing Catalina course at Tucson National. Members that we played with were very gracious. Course was in very nice shape. Greens were very challenging to read.
Great Value!
We played the Catalina course on a very windy day. The course is an old school design and wasn't in prime condition when we played. Still very playable but not immaculate. The Sonoran course was still closed but looked like the better layout and will probably be pristine when they open it again in a few weeks. The Catalina course is probably a 4 star when in prime condition. I only say this when compared to other high end courses in the Tucson area and the Sonoran course. The facility is great if not a bit isolated. If you were staying for a few days this facility would be a wonderful time as there are two courses and a great practice area. For the price we paid it is a great value and totally worth the money.
Sonoran Course Excellent Condition!
Summer twilight rate you just can’t beat. Highly recommend. Super fast round. Good views. Well kept course.
Amazing course
Gravelly Sand
We enjoyed playing but the poor quality of the sand (if you can call it sand) was very disappointing. Considering the greens fees we paid the bunkers should have been better dressed.
My favorite course in Tucson
Pricey by Tucson standards, but well worth it! Classic layout. You have to be on your game to play well but not overly demanding like a desert course.
Awesome course , Friendly staff
Challenging course in excellent condition. All the staff we met were friendly and interested in you enjoying your round.
