Worth every penny.

This is a beatiful course. I have to say it is really awesome how this course finishes with 17 and the par 3 18th! The greens were in perfect shape, the only difference will be rolling for the senior tour coming. This should be a must play on the list, too many great holes to mention!!

Pace of play was so slow, difficult to be enthusiastic about the course.

We tee'd off as a 2 ball, but joined up with the 2 ball ahead of us, as we were waiting on each tee from the start. Things did not improve, and the course manager actually came out to the 18th tee to apologise. He said that their were a group playing as two 4 balls that had slowed everyone up. I think a course of this status should actively encourage players to speed up if they are behind (a very generous) a 4.5 hour pace.

This spoilt the whole round for us. The course had a nice layout, but not as good as nearby Grand Cypress, and did not justify it very high green fee price.

Location of the club house seems to have been an afterthought as it provides no views of the golf course. And the course layout offers no opportunity to start on the back 9.

We were offered no compensation.

Good Course - especially as a "hot Deal"

This is a nice course with more contour than a typical Florida / Orlando area course. It's in good shape and not busy (at least in October), sometimes it feels like a private course. Club rentals are expensive ($79) as are the rack rate green fees, I think there is better value at other courses, but with a golf now hot deal and your own clubs this is a very pleasant course to play. The restaurant is nice but pricey, and it closes early, we finished about 6:00 pm and it was closed, had to go off site for the 19th hole.

Best semi-private course in the area on golf now. I'd go back any time. The staff is exceptional and the clubhouse is amazing. Stay for lunch after. The chefs are putting out amazing food.

Good golf day

Heavy rains the night before closed the driving range. I arrived an hour before tee time for the range so I had to ocupy my time chipping and putting since they have a policy of not letting golfers tee off on an earlier tee time due to the rate difference. I just felt that due to the lack of opportunity to use the range that they would make an exception. The rest of the day lived up to the hype. Great conditions, great layout, friendly staff, free apples and oranges and a minty cold towel in the end. I will definitely play again when in the area.

Beautiful Course

This is in my top 5 courses in Florida. You do not feel like your at a resort course, you feel like your in the middle of a forest. I saw groups of deer on 5 different holes. The only down side to that were the deer tracks running through the middle of the 2nd green. Speaking of greens, they rolled true but were a little inconsistent on the speed. This course has some really fun holes. I played the Waldorf Astoria course the next day but preferred Tranquilo over the Waldorf. The Waldorf course had better & faster greens but the layout and environment at Tranquilo was much better. Staff was what is expected at a course like this, however, I preferred the staff at the Waldorf. Overall, this is a must play if you can offered it. I played on a Hot Deal for $50. This course is right in line with Orange County and Grand Cypress but I don't think is worth anything over $100.

Good value

Course was in great shape. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Just wish they kept the old layout. 18th used to be great finishing hole. Additional par 3 just doesn't provide same finishing sequence of final 3 holes. Great value tho

Always Great

As always 4S never disappoints. Pace was pretty slow all day as people would play through then get held up by groups ahead. Weather was very hot but not surprising. Course was in great shape, greens were great not pristine as ive played on before. People need to practice repairing there ball marks a little better. Apples, Oranges, Bottles of waters on course and the best carts BY FAR in Orlando are always a nice treat. I always love playing here, the deer along the fairway is always cool to see too.

Tranqulity at Tranquilo!

This is the first time I played this course and I am extremely glad that I did. The amenities are first class, the staff is courteous and the course was both challenging and enjoyable to play. There are great elevation changes, well maintained tee boxes, manicured fairways and greens as well as amazing scenic views of wildlife. I would highly recommend the course.
