Rating 70.1

Just a short distance southwest of the Miami International Airport, the golf course at Costa dels Sol Golf Club is a challenging public course that also boasts scenic views. Although the terrain is mostly flat, this course's difficult comes from the narrow fairways that are lined with trees. The greens are medium sized with some being slightly elevated. Water hazards come into play on the majority of the holes and there are also some sand bunkers as well. The signature hole of the course is the par 3 14th hole, which requires a tee shot past water. Costa del Sol Golf Club also has five long, narrow par 5s as well as some scenic par 3s.

Save your money....it's a cow pasture

The pictures of this course really lured me in....'Back in the day', I am sure it was a Wonderful course, but it is in beyond horrible condition. Whole fairways were roped off, and un-playable, the greens were bad as well. We will never play there again....it was a waist of $108 for sure.

Save your money

The course was in terrible condition. I wanted to love this course because the layout from the pictures is gorgeous but it was horrible. Holes number 3 and 13 had ‘ground under repair ‘ for the entire fairway so you could not hit a second or third shot.

The greens were very slow and had a lot of fungus.

The fairways and the collars of the greens were Saint Augustine grass mixed with crabgrass and other assorted weeds.

Don’t waste your time

I had great hopes for this course because the layout of the course is excellent and it is target golf but the beautiful pictures do not reflect reality. There were some very positive reviews just two weeks prior to when we played and they cannot possibly be accurate. Hole number three and hole number 13 had the entire fairway as ‘ground under repair ‘, so there was no second shot or third shot on these par fives.

I have never played on a course where the Fairways and roughs and the collars to the greens were Saint Augustine grass mixed with crabgrass and other weeds.

Back when Sam Snead played this course I suspect it was impeccable! But that was a long time ago!

I really wanted to love this round of golf and I will never come back!

It might be helpful to know that they basically have 3 tee positions: black is 6000 yards the white tees are 5400 yards and the gold tees, when you could find them, was 4800 yards.

Great value

Great value for 18 and cart. Paid $40. Played as 2-some and finished in 3 hours. Two holes currently under repair (3/13) but fun lay out with dog legs and water protecting so approach shots. Back 9 is in better shape than front 9. Great course for beginners and someone just looking to get a round in. Course conditions are on their way to getting better but still have a way to go. I was happy with the round.

Conditions terrible, limited hours, unfriendly staff

I used to come this course often because of the proximity to my home. Regardless of the proximity, I will never return to Costa del Sol Golf Club. About 40% of the time I have gone to Costa del Sol I was told I could not play for one reason or the other. When I am allowed to play, the tee boxes are unmaintained, there are several holes on the greens, among other problems. The staff, with exception to the cart ladies, must cost the club several hundreds of dollars a week with the amount of business they reject. I highly recommend looking at other golf courses as you probably will not be able to play even with a tee time.

Where is the grass?

Not sure what is going on but fairway conditions were as bad as I’ve seen anywhere, ever. Greens ranged from shaggy & extremely slow to bald and bumpy.
Hopefully they are in the midst of some kind of restoration, but ....

Stay Away

Fairways are bare or swamped, greens are ok but some are overcome with something. Traps are almost bare and haven't been touched. Tee boxes are awful for the most part. The fact that I paid over $30 to play here I feel was a waste. I've played here a number of times and it was very disappointing to see how far this course has turned south.

Terrible conditions, don’t play

The course is always in terribly bad, unplayable conditions. How they can charge $53, let alone any money for this course is beyond me. Don’t play, it’s not worth it even for free.
