Review of Grand Palms Resort

The true reality is that the Grand Palms Golf & CC is outdated; this is an old Holiday Inn that was remodeled about 20 years ago and has not been updated. The hotel is very outdated; they still have Tube TV's, mildew in the walls, bathroom tiles that are falling, window AC units, old carpet, etc. The location is great and is located in beautiful Pembroke Pines with easy access to I-75, numerous shops and restaurants. The resort has access to a deplorable set of tennis courts and a run-down gym. As for the Golf Course, they have 27 very challenging holes that are in very poor condition, the course does not drain very well and being close to the everglades makes it a very muddy playing conditions. The greens are very slow, bunkers have little sand and full of rocks, the tee boxes are unleveled and are not mowed frequently, the carts paths are either full of pot holes or poor patched asphalt work. The service at the restaurant, golf course and hotel is very poor; they seem to have a "What do you want" attitude. In general the facilities are run-down and outdated, I stayed at the property earlier this year and will stay at another property the next time I am in South Florida.
