The hotel

There’s nothing quite like playing golf where the greats do: this golfer’s paradise hosts the PGA TOUR’s Cognizant Classic every February, with living legends playing its famous Championship Course. Recently redesigned by Jack Nicklaus, as part of the hotel’s multi-million dollar renovation, it’s just one of 6 exceptional courses open to guests here. It’s not just the fairways that have been revamped; the PGA National Resort has also given a fabulous makeover to its renowned full-service spa, huge Sports & Racquet Club, guest rooms, and dining venues. The Butchers Club is a must try, serving signature dishes by famous celebrity chef Jeremy Ford.

The property is stunning, the atmosphere is peaceful yet luxurious, and every detail is thoughtfully designed. One of the best parts of our visit was the beautiful pool area—relaxing, clean, and full of great energy. A special shoutout to Adam, the pool attendant, who truly made our experience exceptional. He was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. His service added a personal touch that we’ll never forget. We’re already dreaming about coming back. Thank you, PGA National, for a perfect getaway! Read less

Not a Family Resort. Everything closed early because it was off season and no one seemed to enjoy working there. There are better places to stay .

Stayed in the cottages, beds are so soft, they need new mattresses, they're are sugar ants, and a iguana in our room present in the AM. The cottages are affordable and nice options for families, not a lot of amenities if you want to cook, but good enough for quick breakfast. Could use a good coffee maker and the grout in the bathrooms need to be cleaned and updated. Our shower did not have a shower liner and the other bathroom did not have a towel rod. housekeeping liked to come at 9am so had to put the do not disturb on the door. It's a nice option for a house and use of the resort. The resort could have had more activities for Fourth of July and kids. Read less
