Kings Point Executive Course

Kings Point Executive Course is a short layout in Delray Beach, Florida, designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. The course serves the Kings Point retirement community, one of the largest active adult communities in South Florida, and functions as a recreational amenity for residents. Jones, known primarily for his championship-length designs and major tournament venues, also created a number of executive and par-3 courses during his long career, often tailored to specific community needs. The course features a compact routing suited to the flat terrain typical of southeastern Florida. Most holes play as par 3s, with a few short par 4s mixed in, allowing for quick rounds and accessible golf for players of varying abilities. The design incorporates water hazards and modest bunkering consistent with Jones's style, though scaled to the shorter yardages. Palm trees and tropical landscaping frame the holes, and the layout takes advantage of the community's canal and lake system that characterizes much of Delray Beach's residential development. Kings Point Executive serves primarily as a social and recreational course rather than a competitive test. The community itself is well-established, dating to the 1970s, and the course reflects the era's approach to resort and retirement golf—emphasizing playability and pace over difficulty. It remains a functional amenity for residents seeking convenient golf within their neighborhood setting.
