South at The Club at Mediterra

The Club at Mediterra's South Course is a Tom Fazio design that opened in the late 1990s as part of this private residential community in North Naples. Fazio, known for his sculpted aesthetics and strategic variety, created a layout that works with the relatively flat Southwest Florida terrain by incorporating substantial earthwork, water features, and native vegetation zones. The course serves as one of two championship layouts at Mediterra, complementing the property's North Course.

The routing moves through corridors defined by preserved cypress and pine, with water coming into play on multiple holes. Fazio's design emphasizes width from the tee for most players while tightening angles and introducing hazards as golfers approach greens from aggressive lines. The bunkering is characteristic of his style—sculpted, white-sand features that frame landing areas and green complexes. Greens are contoured with subtle breaks, and the course offers multiple tee sets to accommodate a range of skill levels.

Mediterra operates as a private equity club with a membership focused on golf, fitness, and social amenities. The club's facilities include dining venues and practice areas that support a year-round membership, many of whom are seasonal residents. The South Course is maintained to high standards typical of upscale Southwest Florida clubs, with Bermuda grass fairways and overseeded playing surfaces during the winter months. The layout provides a blend of strategic interest and playability within a residential setting.
