The hype
Golfers and girls' trip groups love the renovated vibe and pool scene, but solo travelers often feel lost in the shuffle.
Pga National Resort & Spa
$250-550 / éj
Foglaljon ezt, ha You want a high-energy golf mecca where the '19th hole' is as important as the first 18, and you don't mind a resort that feels like a bustling country club.
Miért szeretik az emberek
- The 'Waters of the World' outdoor mineral pools are a legitimate wellness destination, not just a hotel hot tub
- Six championship golf courses on-site, including the PGA Tour's famous 'Bear Trap'
- The $100M renovation successfully ditched the dusty corporate vibe for a vibrant 1960s Palm Beach chic aesthetic
Gyors áttekintés: It’s a massive, polished golf factory that nails the sport and spa experience but nickel-and-dimes you on everything from parking to 'resort fees' while the lobby bar bass thumps through the floor.
Értékelte @RetreatsInFullBloom: I absolutely loved the tropical vibe here! The balcony view over the greens was my favorite morning spot, and honestly, we spent way too much time playing games in the arcade. It’s the perfect mix of chill and fun.

Reality check
The 'Resort View' rooms often just overlook a parking lot or a roof; you have to pay up for a 'Golf' or 'Pool' view to actually see the greenery.
- You are here to play 36 holes a day and collapse into a steak dinner
- You love a high-energy pool scene with cabanas and cocktails
- You need a 2-bedroom cottage for a family or group trip
Tisztaság és karbantartás
8.8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some guests report missed spots in the cottages.
- Bathroom hygiene: Renovated bathrooms in the main tower are sparkling; older cottage bathrooms can have grout issues.
- Maintenance: Main areas are pristine post-renovation. Some AC units in rooms rattle and need attention.
- Linens & towels: High quality, crisp and fresh. Pool towels are plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like a signature luxury scent (white tea/thyme). Some 'musty' complaints in ground-floor cottage units.

Foglalás előtt
Jó tudni
- The main gym is NOT in the hotel building; it's in the separate 'Sports & Racquet Club' which is a short walk or shuttle ride away.
- You need to book spa treatments and tee times well in advance—they sell out to members and locals.
- The 'Waters of the World' pools are adult-focused; kids are generally steered toward the main resort pool.
Mit csomagoljak be
- A white noise machine (essential for lobby-adjacent rooms)
- Your own pickleball paddle (courts are great, rentals add up)
- Dressy-casual outfits for dinner (The Butcher's Club has a vibe)

GYIK és rejtett tippek
Minden, amit tényleg tudni szeretnél a foglalás előtt.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the main resort pool and the spa mineral pools are heated.
Can I walk to restaurants off-property?
Not really. It's a driving destination. You'll need a car or Uber to get to local spots.
Is the spa access free?
No. Access to the 'Waters of the World' pools requires booking a treatment or paying a day pass fee (often subject to availability).
Are the cottages part of the hotel?
Yes, but they are located in a community adjacent to the main building. Think 'vacation rental' with hotel privileges.
What is the 'Bear Trap'?
It's a famous three-hole stretch (15, 16, 17) on the Champion course known for ruining scorecards. Bring extra balls.
Is there a beach nearby?
No. The resort is inland. The nearest beach (Juno Beach) is about a 15-20 minute drive.
Insider tippek
- ✨
The 'Sports & Racquet Club' has a far superior gym to the small fitness room in the main hotel—go there for a real workout.
- ✨
You can sometimes get a 'twilight rate' for golf if you're willing to play late in the afternoon.
- ✨
The 'Beekeeping Experience' is a surprisingly cool, under-the-radar activity offered on-site.
5 dolog, amit tudnod kell az utazás előtt
💡The birds at the pool are aggressive scavengers—do not leave your fries unguarded for a second.
💡The 'Resort Fee' includes 'unlimited range balls,' so go hit a bucket every morning to get your money's worth.
💡The main lobby bar features a massive faux-banyan tree sculpture that is actually a cool photo op.
💡Room service adds a hefty delivery charge + service charge; picking up food from 'The MKT' is much cheaper.
💡The 'Cottages' can feel a bit dated compared to the newly renovated main hotel rooms.
