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.

Great shape
The course conditions are 5 star. The new ownership has cleaned up the course a lot. They are still transitioning the food and beverage are so that's why I gave a poor rating. Overall this is one of my favorite courses to play.
Shockingly bad
When we arrived at the course, the bag drop was closed. We carried our bags to the cart area. We were told by an attendant (AFTER we had paid our greens) that it was cart paths only. It was 90 degrees that day. At the conclusion of a long, exhausting round we were unable to return our cart to the return area because the path was blocked by construction. We had to abandon our cart and carry our bags back to our car. Never again!
Nice track
Great layout in very good condition. Will probably be more enjoyable overall when clubhouse renovations are complete.
Nice Layout
Conditions were fair and the ownership transition has left the course without any off course amenities. It is a nice track with some interesting holes. If you want to go straight from the parking lot to the tee and back again it is good value.
look at review before you go there
they are under changes and do not advise in advance cart path only till you are to tee off shows we dont care not a cheap place to play
Great day of golf
Always a challenging course. I'm sure that after renovations to facilities are complete course will return to its pre-construction standards.
A Blustery Day
2 club wind added to the challenge of playing this very nice RTJ Jr course. It should be very interesting in the next couple of years to see what develops on this property, I played this club in their heyday and I see where parts of the facilities has fallen into disarray. Hopefully, in the future, management can revive this wonderful facility back to its previous splendor.

Yesterday I had the chance to go play this course for the first time. Starter was very friendly and the practice area was in good shape. They are doing construction and renovations but everything still looked great. Tees off on time and got paired with a couple of great guys that play there often who really helped me navigate the tough course. Fairways are in great condition and so were the greens and the scenery is just beautiful. Nice and tough course but still forgiving fairways. Lots of interesting turns and hazards made it challenging to pick the right club and make a great shot. Would reccomend this course to anyone definitely worth the little bit extra$$
Well manicured course
Course is in great condition. A good test from whatever tee you choose
Great Course
The course was in great shape and the greens were fast and challenging. The staff was friendly and helpful . This was my first time at this course but will play again
Awesome
Best course at WPB. Will play again. Great condition and a great course to play and have fun.
My favorite golf course so far.
I saw a nice deal on this course so I read the reviews and looked at images. I've played over 20 different golf courses so far this summer alone, combination of private, semi-private, public and municipal courses. I'd say by far this is my favorite course. The course looks beautiful and the condition is in great shape. This course looks like a private course. Snack bar is really nice too. It was a 60 mile trip for me but it was well worth it. I'm definitely gonna play this course again and would highly recommend it.
Not your typical FL golf course.
After learning that this golf course has a lot a elevations, I told myself I have to play this course even though it's an hour drive for me. This course didn't disappoint. The course is in great shape. Most South FL courses are flat, but this one is different, making you feel like you're in another state. I got paired with 3 retired locals, and they were big help especially on blind shots. Overall, I had a really great time and I highly recommend this golf course. In my opinion, this course is one of those "must-play-courses" in all of South FL.
Straight hitters golf course
Stay out of the water and the pampas grass and it's a fun course to play. Has some very good holes, greens were in good shape. Try it I think you will like it.
Still one of the Best
It took me 2 years to take the long ride south to visit the course I called "the best I've played". Since then Bella Collina has moved into my # 1 spot but the President's is a very close second. Spectacular detail to everything a golfer could ask for. Well worth the drive AND I got only my second eagle of my life, which made it more memorable. If you haven't played here make it a point to go and if you have, what's taking you so long to go back?
Presidents Club
Excellent, pleasurable experience. Great place to golf.
great Course
as always the course was in good shape even after both fairways and greens were punches a few weeks back, Challenging layout but plenty of room in fairways
Great round!
Overall The course was in great condition. The staff did a great job of accommodating my pace of play! I would recommend this course to anyone that is in the area. Is a great course with some old-time charm. They do a great job of keeping the condition of the course is in great shape even during off-season. I can see why so many people want to play this during the winter. Keep up the great work and continue to let the locals play this course for a great deal

Bon parcours, cependant l'eau et la glace manquait à certains endroits.. Le driving range est décevant .
Just lay up on 6
Greens were punched and sanded, understandable but a bummer. Course was very dry but it doesn't rain in south Florida anymore so that too is expected. Look closely at the hole map on the cart before approach shots, several bunkers not apparent from approach. If you have a good start to the round- LAY UP ON 6. Reachable par five with very small landing area, water in front and behind green. Take par and get out of there. TRUST ME!!!!
