The Phoenician Golf Resort's 27-hole USGA championship facility is comprised of three challenging nine-hole layouts, each named for its surrounding landscape - Canyon, Desert and Oasis. Pristine desert views, lush tropical scenery, water features, and all of the amenities that make golf a pleasure. Named one of the four “Best Golf Resorts” by the Robb Report, and ranked among the “Top 75 Golf Resorts in America” by Golf Digest, the three courses at the Phoenician Golf Resort were designed by Ted Robinson, Sr. and Homer Flint, and are currently managed by Troon Golf.

None of the three nine-hole layouts are long (the longest is 3,250 yards) which means, even with only three sets of tees, goods scores are attainable by most golfers. Rental clubs, shoes and golf instruction are available at the golf shop.

Fees: From $40 to $200 per 18 holes, depending upon the time of day, day of the week, and season.
