NAPLES BEACH HOTEL AND GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Naples, FL, USA
Designed by Jack Nicklaus, John Sanford

Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club's course carries a rich history, gracefully evolving over time as a beloved landmark along Gulf Shore Boulevard. Originally sculpted in the late 1920s, it reflects an early American design sensibility, where playability and the natural contours of the coastal landscape were paramount.
The course provides an engaging, if not overly challenging, test of golf, defined by its mature trees, subtle doglegs, and the ever-present influence of the Gulf breeze. Fairways are generous, but approach shots require consideration of the green's undulations, putting a premium on strategic play rather than sheer power. The course has undergone several modern updates over the years, most notably the complete renovation by Jack Nicklaus in 2016 which added length and strategic depth to the course.
While it may not command the global spotlight, the course remains a cherished mainstay for both members and resort guests, many of whom treasure the club's convivial atmosphere and the unpretentious charm of its beachfront setting. A round here is as much about enjoying the company and the views as it is about the scorecard, with post-round gatherings on the veranda a time-honored tradition. It's also worth noting the club's longstanding reputation for its fresh seafood, often sourced directly from local waters, a perfect complement to a day on the links.
