Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge Review

Bay Hill Lodge is not for stuffed shirts and persons with their noses in the air. This is a place for people like Arnold Palmer himself. A person grounded in integrity and honor and kindness. We even met him while there and he didn't offer us a brief smile and a scribbled autograph, he sat and talked with us like old friends. What a gentleman he is and this carries through with the staff at the Lodge. Kind, thoughtful and sincere about their goal of making your stay the warmest and best possible. Funny thing is, I'm not a golfer but i was with a group of businessmen who were and they couldn't say enough about the course. They cant wait to return..........and neither can I. Thank you for making my stay so memorable! Charles Grey, Florida Commercial Brokers Network, F.I.GREY & SON, Inc. Commercial Realtors Since 1924

Our group of four had a golf lesson with Tom Garner on our recent trip to Bayhill . I would highly recommend taking a lesson from Tom;not only was he very helpful and spot on with his instruction but he also went way beyond the two hours we scheduled. He is good at his job and truly loves what he does and it shows!

Beautiful and priceless grounds , very friendly staff, nice balconies. The buffet breakfast ok, rooms need an update.

A must visit place for all keen golfer's
Lots of history around Arnold Player's life and career
A high quality location in every respect

I absolutely love this place. Excellent golf course and lodge

Very friendly and pleasant experience. I would highly recommend any golf enthusiast to visit this resort.

The Bay Hill Club & Lodge was the late Arnold Palmer's Florida headquarters. As you'd expect, the course he designed here is indeed fit for a king. Laid out in three nine-hole loops, the Challenger and Champion nines are used annually by the US PGA Tour for the Arnold Palmer Invitational (formerly Bay Hill Invitational), with the Charger-nine also maintained and presented in the same immaculate condition as the other two nines.

One of the most beautiful golf courses I have ever visited

Fabulous golfing experience during bay hill tournament.

It was pretty nice, it was a wonderful default area, the people there were great as well very friendly. It was a fantastic experience. The location wasn't too far either.

Excellent hotel Everything is super, the service, the rooms, the view, the restaurant.
All 5 stars.

Beautiful facility. Wonderful people.
Loved walking with my fiance and watch the pros.

Clean, kind, friendly and caring staff. Excellent location

Lunch couldn't have been better. Thank you so much Amy Koehler in Catering

I've been a Bay Hill resident for 14 years and if you love golf that's the place to be! Bay Hill is home of the worldwide famous tournement Arnold Palmer Invitational.

I live down the street, so I only ever golfed here, but the golf is great! Had a few not so positive encounters with a couple of the staff (a bit snobby), but most of them have been great.

TVs right out of the 1980s. No On Demand or anything other than separate channels. Need 55 inches and all the usual items contained on modern TVs. Also will then need new Wardrobes to hold them. Lighter in color so they don t dominate the room as the present ones do. Everything else was fine and enjoyable. Restaurants and service first rate and all employees pleasant, friendly, and competent.

Fantastic service and food! Of course the view is also spectacular

What an amazing place. The atmosphere and course conditions are amazing.

Such a great place to stay. I can't wait to go back again.

Room was not up to website's standards, towel rack in bathroom broken, and shower knob was not right. The King would be disappointed.

a piece of history here, great course food and you can stay there

Wonderful experience. Service and food was awesome. A great place to go. Bucket list experience.

Beautiful Facility! Wonderful Staff! Going back again!

Lovely grounds, beautiful area. Friendly staff. Room was a little dated and had a musty smell. Everything was clean. Nice restaurant. Overall a nice stay but nothing special.

The Bayhill golf tournament is one of the great golfing events in the country don't miss it

This is a beautiful hotel and golf course. The staff is great and service was excellent. The rooms have excellent blackout curtains however I found the beds to be uncomfortable and the sheets were old and needed to be replaced. The comforter seemed dusty. The tub was small and only holds about 5 inches of water before it hits the drain. This hotel could easily be turned into a 5 star hotel with a little investment.

The very best golf resort. The people are amazing they deliver the best service. The accommodations are excellent. I ll be back soon

Very attentive staff and great atmosphere. The golf course is very challenging but still playable for the average golfer.

The lodge is beautiful, the grounds are well kept and the golf course is fantastic. The restaurants and bars are very nice. The only negative comment I could give was that the customer service at the front desk left a little to be desired, by more than one clerk. I did not get a warm feeling, nor were they very helpful.

Staff is very friendly, accommodations are nice and comfortable, food is delicious and the golf course is a blast to play!! We will definitely be back!!

We didn't play, stay or eat there. We walked the course area daily. Very nice neighborhood. Friends had fun watching the tournament.

Very playable course that the pros play. Staff was helpful and course was in nice shape. Worth the money for the experience.

One of the best golf tournaments of the year, and one of the greatest golfers and humans from America, Arnold Palmer

Top notch first class tournament. Outside of the Majors and Players it is the best.

I was just there for the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Huge crowds and very hot! It was fun though!

For the name and fan-fare- this is a less than desirable place to spend a vacation. I am not sure how they got a 4 star rating but this is property is far from it. The room was an adequate size but no desk space nor a fridge. The beds sunk in and the linens were dated with pills. The room was very dusty as the hall ways. The restaurants were empty and for some reason the pool had to have a gate with an attendant to let you in and out. The pool was the biggest draw-back, the temperature was more than 80 degrees and had leaves and dirt floating. When you suggest to the front desk the issues they would say "Reeeeally, we have not seen that."
Aside from being a premier golf course the hotel should be carefully looked at and changes made quickly. If I knew this before going I would have chosen a different property.

Golf was great and the room was perfect. We highly recommend all golf enthusiasts to drop in for some lasting memories.

Beautiful lodge and golf course. All the staff is very nice. One of my favorite places

The lodge is very nice. Good size rooms, including bathrooms. Comfortable beds. Employees are very pleasant. Wish I could provide feedback on the golf, but no time to play this trip

Played the member and guest tournament. Fabulous experience.
