Banyan Cay Resort & Golf
About
Originally opened as the Eagle Course at President Country Club, Banyan Cay Resort & Golf was renovated by Nicklaus design in 2017. The fairways are lined with coquina and pampas grass and there are also water hazards and sand bunkers coming into play throughout. The layout offers interesting par 3s that offer particularly nice scenery and a mix of par 4s that range from having ample room to being very tight and requiring more careful course management. The golf course opens with a risk-reward opportunity, a dogleg-right par 5 with a strategically placed lake.

President CC... the Eagle course
Great layout and challenging holes. You will use every club in your bag. Greens are true but undulating ththroughout. Wind, water and all come into play. I am a 14 handicapper and embraced the challenge. 6 sets of tees....I played the blue or Players tees. Worth the time to play. Would love to play it again.
Good Course
This course was good overall and would return. The GPS was helpful for this course as playing it for the first time without would have been tough to navigate.
Noise Control
Nice beautiful facility! Course is in great shape, greens where good. Only problem was that theirs alot of Noise! Construction, Landscaping distracting and hard to concentrate. Views are not scenic, surrounded by apartments that make it look really dumpy! Snack bar is very over priced. $32.00 for a Club Sandwich & Burger.
All you can handle!
Some courses you forget about distance and concentrate on placement, other courses the fairways are wide and long. This one? Narrow, long, and punishment up both sides if your shots weren't accurate! We had sporadic rain that interrupted us to some degree on 14 of 18 holes. That was the only bad part of the experience. I will be back on a sunny day to challenge this course again!
Great course.
Great course. Back 9 was more challenging than the front. Great staff. One bad aspect was the watering (sprinklers) of the greens in the middle of play (15th green was drenched/waterlogged). Overall, a great place to play.
Better than I remember
I have played many courses during the past six months. This course is up there with quite a few of the best. The greens were excellent with perfect speed, and the fairways were better than I recall them being last time I played here (six+ months ago).
I would say the pace of play is 4.25 to 4.5 hours average, which is pretty nice considering that the course was full.
Starter Rick got us off to a great start with a few tips and tricks regarding a few holes on the front and with that we were off. The course has some exceptional views and some very difficult holes, with a few shots over water that can be quite precarious. My foursome enjoyed their round and will definitely play this fine course once again very soon.
Horrible Pace
Tee'd off at 1:00pm sharp, rolled our carts in 5:44pm. At one point there were 4 groups on the par 3, 14th hole. Called for player assistance on the GPS system and two attendants saw all the carts at the hole and turned around and did not speak to anyone. 3 of the on course water stations required maintenance. No ice and no water available.
Rained off
Managed 14 holes then the heavens opened and lightening so that was that, they did give me a € 20 credit for next time. Wey Hey
Slow and unfriendly
They put a fivesome in front of us. Two and a half hours for the front nine. We called in to golf shop. They knew of the fivesome and slow pace of play. They did not do anything about it. We keft after nine holes.
Great experience.
Terrific layout. Course conditions were also terrific. Price was also a plus. First time here in a very long time. I'm going to try to play here again soon.
Good Course
We enjoyed our play here. Nice course with a relaxed feel. Greens were fast but still good.
qualite prix
Bonnes conditions, mais il a perdu de sa qualité depuis 3 ans. Le prix demande est trop élevé pour la qualité.
Belle allée de golf
Accueillant très beau vert de pratique à l arriver ainsi qu'un champs de pratique. Très beau terrain les allée de golf sont magnifies, les vert sont pas trop rapides les fosses de sables très bien entretenus bref je vais y retourner
El Presidente
The course was in great shape. The greens were challenging because of the undulations and pin placements. Wonderful experience.
Nice Layout
I have played this course several times this season and keep coming back. The course is well maintained with a friendly staff. For the most parts the fairways are ample size although to score well you have to position your drive to be able to get to some of the pin locations. It is a visually appealling layout with some water and plenty of sand to keep up your attention.
Terrain qui offre un beau défi réalisable
Nous y retournerons car nous avons apprécié le défi, la qualité, le respect du temps de jeu et le personnel amable et discret.
one of a king
great golf course with perfect conditions...greens are fast, arond 10, challenging holes especially on the back 9, a must see and play, but not for 75$...between 40-50$ with golf now
It's a good one! You should play here!
A very pleasant experience! The conditions were top notch, the lay-out is very fair, and it's a good test for solid ball-strikers. I'll be back!
Excellent conditions, but very challenging for first timers
I went there with another person during my 2 week stay in Florida and got to experience a few other courses. There's so many good courses in the area for a lot cheaper. You'll have to pay a premium price to pay here, but it's definitely a great course. Extremely challenging if it's your first time playing this course. The cart GPS felt really accurate and helped somewhat. Undulating greens. We played in the afternoon around 2PM during the week and there weren't many people in front/behind us, and the pace was good. Going rate seems to be $45-$79. It's definitely a good value if you can get 18 for under $40. Otherwise it's an average price for a place like this.
