Naples Grande Golf Club

About this course
Naples Grande Golf Club features a Rees Jones design that opened in 1999 as part of the Naples Grande Beach Resort. The course occupies a relatively flat site characteristic of southwest Florida's Gulf Coast landscape, with Jones incorporating water hazards, native vegetation, and strategic bunkering to create definition and challenge across the property. The routing winds through preserved wetlands and natural areas that provide habitat for local wildlife and frame many of the holes. Jones designed the course to accommodate resort guests while offering enough strategic interest for accomplished players. The layout includes generous landing areas off the tee balanced by approach shots that demand precision to well-protected greens. Water comes into play on multiple holes, and the bunkering reflects Jones's preference for traditional shapes and strategic placement. The course sits inland from the Gulf of Mexico, so the coastal breezes that affect many Naples-area courses are somewhat moderated by the surrounding vegetation and resort development. The club operates as part of the resort amenity structure, serving both resort guests and members. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse integrated with the resort's broader hospitality offerings. The course provides a tournament-caliber test within a resort setting, typical of Jones's work in creating layouts that balance playability for varied skill levels with enough design substance to maintain interest over repeated rounds.

Getting there
Most visitors arrive via Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers, roughly thirty miles north, though Naples Municipal Airport serves private aviation with convenient proximity to the resort. The drive south along Interstate 75 transitions quickly from commercial sprawl to the manicured elegance of Naples proper, where a turn west toward the Gulf leads through palm-lined boulevards and gated enclaves. Naples Grande Golf Club sits tucked within the broader Naples Grande Beach Resort, its entrance marked by the understated refinement that defines this stretch of Florida's southwest coast - a seamless arrival befitting one of the region's most polished resort experiences.
