Located in the city of Mesa, the Royal Palms golf course is a nine-holer with a risk-and-reward style layout. Royal Palms offers a mix of par 3s and par 4s that is suitable for all skill levels of golfer. Although it is a short course, there are challenges to keep golfers on their toes. Two lakes form water hazards that come into play on over half of the holes. Royal Palms G.C. also has strategically placed sand bunkers throughout the entire design that can affect shots.

Very small, very slow course. A man won't use a driver here. The cause is well kept and looks great. Staff were great.

Course was overbooked and backed up. They let a family with 3 screaming babies push strollers through the course so we got so backed up we couldn't finish 9 holes before it got dark. The booked 12 people at 430pm tee of.

Small, slow, but really nice

The course and the staff are 10/10. Beautifully maintained course and friendly staff. I booked a 430pm tee time with the app. There were 4 groups booked for the same time. We had to wait and the game was slow so it ended early on the 7th due to lack of day light. We got there early to warm up the course was backed up the entire time.
The thing that really upset me and everyone else was that they let a family of 5 with babies push strollers with their dad as he played. The kids screamed and ran around like animals and held up the whole course. Ridiculous.
Side note: the course is small. A man won't use a driver on any hole I think the longest hole was 250yrds. Most were 9 iron tee offs.

Fun Little Course

Fun course for beginners and those getting back into the sport. The course is fairly forgiving of a bad shot and you can easily recover from it.

Course was good. Need a starter as people were teeing off whenever. No control so made it a little slow. Two kids under 12 using one set of clubs then a single then a twosome.

Challenge

A challenging par3. Very slow play as we had two threesomes ahead of us. Both threesomes only had two sets of golf clubs which is against posted rules.
Greens good be better.
