Florida: A Golf Paradise Awaits!

Welcome to Florida, the Sunshine State, where golf doesn’t just exist; it thrives! With more golf courses than any other state in the US, Florida proves time and again that it’s a golfer’s haven. From the glitzy resorts of Palm Beach to the charming greens of St. Augustine, there’s a little something for every kind of golf enthusiast. But wait, there’s more! Don’t worry if golf isn’t your thing—these resorts boast stunning amenities for the whole family, making it the perfect vacation destination.

Ponte Vedra Beach: Where Luxury Meets Greens

Let’s start with Ponte Vedra Beach. Here, you can bask in the sun at dreamy resorts like the luxurious Ocean Course and the lush Lagoon Course at the The Lodge & Club. And if you’re feeling adventurous, the legendary 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass is just a short drive away, waiting for you to test your skills. Plus, there’s a beautiful stretch of white-sand beach offering lounging and playtime for family members who prefer a bit of sand between their toes.

Palm Beach: The PGA Grand Slam

Then there’s the PGA Resort in Palm Beach, home to five incredible PGA Championship courses. The variety of challenges can easily keep a golfer entertained from sunrise to sunset. Whether swinging at the renowned The Champion or the crafty The Palmer, there’s no shortage of fun. And let’s not forget the kids—or the non-golfing crew! From beach volleyball to poolside hangouts, the entire family will find their groove.

Bowling Green: A Hidden Gem

If you’re up for a little drive, make your way to Bowling Green. This Central Florida spot is packed with exciting options, boasting three 18-hole courses and a brand-new 19-hole course. After your rounds, you can unwind at the spa or chill out by the infinity pool that overlooks the lake. With an expansive 7,000 acres to explore, the fun doesn’t have to stop when the sun goes down!

Orlando: Fun for Everyone

And we can’t forget about Orlando. A mere five miles from the enchanting Walt Disney World, Mystic Dunes offers a course that combines diverse experiences over its back and front nines. With pools, a lagoon, and plenty of room for family fun, there’s no need to rush when everyone can do what they love.

Miramar Beach: Gulf Coast Delight

Heading to the stunning Gulf Coast? Miramar Beach is home to Sandestin, boasting four courses, all designed to challenge and entertain. Here, you can enjoy unique landscapes while swinging away under the sun and then squeeze in some water activities once you’re done. It’s a win-win for golf lovers and beach bums alike!

St. Augustine: The Golf Legends Playground

If history and golf pique your interest, World Golf Village in St. Augustine features courses co-designed by golf legends, including Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. It’s one thing to enjoy a round, but doing so on courses steeped in golfing history is an allure unto itself.
