Hollywood Beach Golf Resort

I didn’t know there was a golf course & country club in the middle of downtown Hollywood!
They also have a small hotel there too which could be great for wedding parties.
I went here for a banquet. Nice sized space, great & attentive staff.
There were options for chicken, beef or fish so variety for groups. I chose the chicken options which was a big portion of meat served with roasted potatoes and veggies. Very flavorful!
I enjoyed cheesecake for dessert, it was light & fluffy served with strawberries!
Nice option to know about in the area!

Lori is awesome. Rudy’s is awesome. If you stay in hotel bring your own supplies if you can. Ie. shampoo soap toiletries. Cleaning staff is good when you need things. Rooms could be a lot cleaner with a little. TLC.

I was expecting more of a resort feel to this hotel, but I didn’t get that whoa feeling. Just went with reviews from tripadvisor or expedia, and picked this hotel specifically because it was close to the airport since our flights were early in the AM. Lobby closes at about 8pm so you have to arrange a request if you’re trying to check in late.
The lady who worked the front desk was very helpful and nice. The rooms were okay, kinda had a motel feel to them. VERY spacious, there was so much room for how the room was furnished. My group booked two rooms next to each other. It was weird that one was super outdated, and the other had a pretty updated bathroom. The rooms came with the basic amenities and a fridge.
Overall, I think this place is a-​ok. I wouldn’t chose to stay here for a vacation vibe, but it was ok for a one night stay.

When I made reservation, asked if they had rental clubs with stiffer shafts. Said it’s very important as I have higher swing speed. Was surprised to get a set with regular flex and a ladies flex sand wedge and hybrid. Starter said sorry, try to swing slower (not what I wanted to hear). Course itself was a good value $ 25 for 18. Greens were in good shape. Fairways needed some watering. Pro shop staff was friendly.

«Tried» to play a round today. Unfortunately, if you play in the summer here there is a LOT of rain! These old courses are not designed to handle this much water. Went off on hole 10 and the back side was not as bad as the front. Only got a few holes in on the front and had to call it a day. The bunkers were like ponds and even the fairways were swamp like. This is no joke. Instead I suggest you play Jacaranda which is about 15 mins from Hollywood. I played there twice in the past 2 weeks and that course was in amazing shape and drainage system worked to perfection! I will not play here again if there is so much as a sprinkle!

Has potential to be a really nice and fun course but could use some work. The layout is pretty cool with holes u have to lay up on unless you can fly the ball 250 over the water. All the pins were tucked in the corners so it made it nice and challenging and bunkers were in good condition, was actually fun to hit out of. Greens were in pretty bad condition tho with blemishes all over them an were really slow. Fairways also had brown spot an were all blotchy.

If you’re an out-​of-​towner, you’d expect a place with a name like this to be some kind of glorious beachside cabana experience. (Unless you showed up with a reservation and hadn’t bothered to look it up on Unilocal or TripAdvisor, because you trust your brother). So while you are indeed in the Miami area, and there are beaches relatively close by, note that this place is not on a beach.
Still, HBGR is all right. I’m no golfer, I was just here for the hotel. The hotel is average-​y, but was clean and all our towel needs were taken care of. The wall A/​C was struggling to keep it temperate in there. There is no desk service after 5ish pm, so if you need to check in after hours, too bad. Wi-​Fi is free, but tepid. The staff were all very friendly though, so add a ½ star.
The best thing about this place is the peaceful view of the golf course greens that you get from your hotel room. Yes, every once in a while, somebody might have to drive by in a cart to play through, but it was rare.
At 4:30 in the morning, though, somebody kicked down the door of a neighboring room. We were not brave enough to investigate when it happened, and the next morning staff disavowed knowledge of the incident (even though a completely broken door frame that was not there the previous day seems like a red hot smoking gun.)
And now, here’s Bill Murray in Caddyshack.

Played a fantastic round today with my ten year old son. The course isn’t too hard or too easy, it’s designed for anyone who enjoys the game to have a satisfying experience. It’s well maintained and clean, the fairways are maincured and the greens have character. The beverage girl did a great job of showing up whenever we needed her, and all of the staff and the other players were very friendly. For the price ($ 35 on a Sunday; $ 30 for kids) this course offered excellent value and I can’t wait to return.
