West at Jacaranda Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Both the East Course and the West Course at Jacaranda Golf Club are four-star rated by Golf Digest. These challenging golf courses weave across a tropical landscape covered with blue lagoons, tranquil ponds, and swaying palm trees. The West Course is the shorter of the two courses but it is no less challenging. Strategy and skill, rather than length, are the determining factors on this layout. With water hazards to avoid, numerous tricky doglegs, and tight bunkering along the greensides and landing areas, this course is definitely a shot-maker's layout. The raised, sloped greens and undulating, tree-lined fairways will require some careful maneuvering. The outward nine is slightly more forgiving than the demanding inward nine, which features more boldly contoured green complexes. The challenging, yet versatile design of both golf courses has made Jacaranda one of southeast Florida's most popular golfing destinations.

Great condition in June
Was able to get 9:46 tee time. Round was exactly four hours. Course was in excellent shape. Certainly will try to get back as soon as possible.
Great Deal For The Money!
I played this course while I was
on vacation . A great corse. At next level!
Thank you for choosing to play Jacaranda while in town on vacation. We look forward to providing you with a 5 star experience on your next visit.
Solid day, great conditions!
Met up with 3 guys I’ve never met. We played from 3 different tees and it was an amazing morning. Course is in great shape, the greens were true and fast. Probably the best course in Broward County.
We're happy to hear you had a great day at Jacaranda! We look forward to providing you a 5 star experience very soon!
Thank you for posting a review! We hope to provide you with a 5 star experience in the future.
Chaotic and over crowded
Course is in good shape. Pace of play was backed up from the 2 hole. I wanted to play by myself and not with people I don’t know, they told me no, which was unaccommodating considering the times were facing currently. If they don’t want singles don’t allow them to book and make sure you state that to 3rd parties or on your website. Course is also selling expired products on the bev cart. Not a good experience at Jacaranda.
Good value for a well conditioned and fun golf course .
We're sorry to hear that you only felt you had a 3 star experience at Jacaranda. We would love to know what we can improve upon. If you have the time please email us at kasey@jacarandagolfclub.com.
Total Waste of Money!!!! Do not play!
Just walked off after 9 holes. It took just under 3 hours and there were 3 groups on the 10th tee box and I decided it just wasn’t worth it anymore. They had a tournament today and I asked the guy in the pro shop if I could play the east course instead and he assured me pace of play would be fine and that the tournament was going off 30 min before me. Well we got backed up after 3 holes. Tried to get some sort of refund or rangeballs but they told me there was nothing they could do. Never once did I see a ranger or Marshall to help with pace of play. Also the group behind us hit into us multiple times as we were in the fairway. Not the way I was trying to spend an afternoon of my vacation. Course conditions weren’t even worth 100 bucks if the pace of play was good. Greens were in terrible shape and did not roll true at all. Only good thing about the course was the fairways. Never coming back and I would strongly recommend driving up to Palm Beach County for much better courses.
We are very disappointed to hear about your experience at Jacaranda. Pace of play is usually not an issue as we have state-of-the-art GPS and rangers that help keep golfers moving. We understand that was not the case on the day you played and we sincerely hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a 5 star experience in the future.
Thanks so much for the 5 star rating. See you soon!

Thank you for the 5 star rating! We look forward to your next visit.
Back to 5 STAR
Last year I had to take away a start due to course conditions. My hope was that they would be back to standard this year and they were. Both courses at Jacaranda have amazing staff. This is all around from the bag drop , pro shop, starters, kitchen. It is a testament to the management that staff is that happy working on Christmas Eve and Day. In the 4 years I have been playing over the holidays at this course I haven't had a bad word to say about staff.
The West is my favourite of the two courses. The raised greens on many holes give it an older feel. The course is not overly long but you have to think your way around it. There is lots of risk reward that makes this course fun each time you play it. The greens are in great shape and are receptive to good shots but will not automatically accept bad shots. The closing stretch can make or break a round. Every detail is well looked after on the course and it is a pleasure to play.
Thank you for coming back to Jacaranda and giving us the opportunity to exceed your expectations. We're thrilled to know we earned back that 5th star and we look forward to seeing you again.
We appreciate you taking the time to rate our club. See you soon!
Thanks so much for the excellent rating. We look forward to your next round.
Thank you for rating Jacaranda and awarding us with 5 stars! We look forward to your return.
Great course. Favorite that I have been to in ft. Lauderdale
Course is in great condition. Beautiful views. Well manicured fairways & greens.
We're so glad you enjoyed Jacaranda and we hope to see you soon.
