The Senator Course at Shula's Golf Club
About
The 18-hole championship course at Don Shula's Golf Club is one of those courses that just seems to get better as you play your way around.
The first few holes are fairly open and not overly difficult. However, things start to get more difficult as you continue. By the time you make it to the 11th green, you'll know that you're in for a real dogfight. The fairways on the back get tight and there's water on just about every hole. All in all, it's a very enjoyable course from start to finish.
There are tennis courts, multiplex, fitness center etc. There’s something for everyone. The hotel's onsite amenities include upscale dining at the Original Shula's Steak House and casual dinning at the Bull Pen, which serves breakfast lunch and light dinner until 7pm.

Excellent course
One of the best value for money in the area, as a Hot Deal on GolfNow.
No marshal, no starter ... playing time of 5 hours
We like this course. We use to play a lot there. But yesterday might have been there last chance. Guess what happen when there is no starter? Golfers play by themselves (1 player) and tee off at the time they want. So we saw twosome followed by a guy alone. We were not waiting only at each hole, but at every shot. For that reason, I would not recommend this course
Shula’s outing
The course is in excellent shape. You can noticed the groundskeeping staff is working at it. Perfect. A bit windy, but nice day to be out. Shot a very low score and had my first eagle on hole #8 after a birdie on #7.
Over 5 hours game is unbarable
The pace was horrible. We called for marshals to speed up the pace. It was not helpful. We stopped after 11 holes and 3:20 hours of game! No fun!!!
Shula a good track
Great layout. Fair to easy front 9 and the back 9 offers a real challenge. Greens were fantastic
Nice value for the money
Great greens very fast! Layout was nice front was a little easier and back was challenging with more water! (Two different courses joined together) good pace of play friendly staff. Would definitely play again.
Enjoyable
It was a busy Saturday morning on the first tee but the starter did a good job spacing out the groups. Was a little slow to start but eventually made some space. Layout is old school south Florida golf with generally flat fairways with elevated undulating greens, which pose a challenge. Layout is fun with traps, trees and water in the right places. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were in good condition. Greens seemed dry in appearance but rolled very true and slick. It hasn’t rained in a few days so that was likely the reason. Props to the staff who do a good job maintaining the course and set my range finder aside for me after I left it on the cart. I returned to find it waiting for me at the pro shop. Thank you!!!! I definitely recommend a round here and will return, as I have many times over my lifetime.

Too bad we got rained out....was looking forward to challenge on the back 9
Played with a cool guy and his wife! Greens were real nice! Challenge was good. Had fun. Too bad it started raining real hard. Didn’t get to play back nine. I will in the future.

Excellent course
This is a great course wether you are a beginner or a scratch golfer. The back is very challenging with lots of water. The pace of play is 4-41/2 hours.

Fair at best
Greens were great but the rest was fair at best. Fairways, driving range and club house were poor. I wouldn't play it again. Too many nice courses in the area to play it again.

Thank you for sharing your comments from your most recent round of golf at Shula's Golf Club. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the golf course. Most would agree with you tin that we have two distinct 9's. The Back 9 is much more challenging than the front with water on 7 of the 9 holes. We hope to see you again very soon.
