The Senator Course at Shula's Golf Club
Played On 05/03/20195:32 AM CONFIRMATION VIA E-MAIL YET COURSE UNAVAILE TO PLAY.
Let me start by saying this review is not about the golf course condition or the playability of the course. I am going to give a poor rating because I believe the course as well as the booking company had some obligation to inform us the course was unplayable that morning considering I was sent a confirmation notice at 5 :32 am via e-mail. We were a group of 4 staying in Miami beach from Toronto. We had set aside this morning to get up early skip our included buffet breakfast at the Palms and drive over 30 minutes for a 7:30 tee off at Don Shulas as one of our 4some was a huge Dolfins fan. When we arrived we were advised the course was closed due to heavy rain and would only open at noon for a tournament. We let them know we would be happy to play only the holes that were playable as we could not book any where else at that time in the morning and had travelled a long distance. The response was if we let you on then someone else will want to play too. What a waste of a vacation morning.
Stingfan01,
Thank you for your review of Shula's Golf Club. We are sorry to hear that you were unable to play the golf course. The weather in South Florida can be very unpredictable. Overnight rains forced us to close the course until 12pm. We were unaware of the course conditions until golf course maintenance staff first inspected the course at daybreak approx 6:30am. The superintendent advised that course would not be playable until 12pm. At that time we had a large tournament that had booked exclusivity of the course. If the course closes due to weather, the guest is not charged. Unfortunately we can not control the weather. Our pro shop opens at 6:30am. Hopefully you understand that the timing of the rain and course closure prevented us from contacting you before your arrival at 7am.
Sincerely,
Shula's Golf Club
