The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
The only true championship course on the Strip, a Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley design with palms, black-sand bunkers, water features and a South Pacific theme that contrasts sharply with the surrounding desert. A bucket-list novelty round driven by location and atmosphere as much as the layout itself.
Consistently praised
- Strip-adjacent location with views of the resort towers from the fairways, hard to replicate anywhere else in golf.
- A par-3 island green that draws an audience from the restaurant patio, plus resort-style service and a tropical-landscaping atmosphere.
Worth knowing
- Resort-tier splurge; airport and helicopter noise is a recurring complaint, and the practice setup is hitting nets rather than a full grass range.
Golfers recommend
- Bring it for the experience and the photos; players chasing a serious shotmaking test should pair it with a desert design.
- Mind the water: seven acres of features sit in play, and the par-3 16th rewards a committed shot to the island.
