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.

Royal Palms Mesa

A well maintained 9 hole gem in the desert. A nice lush course well maintained. Pace of play was slow but with the great AZ temperatures not a problem for us. We enjoyed the course both times we have played.

Slow

I don't know if it was all of the snow birds or they are over booking but the pace has been super slow the lady 5+ times I have played here. This last time we were stacked up 4 deep on hole six. In the summer I can play in about an hour. Right now plan on closer to 3 hours.

Great little course. Interesting holes ...not long but just enough to cause a few problems with water hazards or narrow fairways. We rode a cart but could be easily walked.

Great Value for this nicely kept 9 hole Course

This course is in very nice shape! Even though it's a small 9 hole Executive Course, it's clean, the greens are good, and they really work on keeping it in nice condition! There are a few water hazards, and the sand is nicer than many other courses I've played (sad to say I was in the sand) I love playing here when I want to get a quick game in!

The gentleman mowing the golf course was constantly in our way to play golf. Otherwise everything was very good. The women in the office was very friendly and efficient.

Great little course

I have been playing golf for less than a year and I love Royal Palms! a Par-3 is perfect for me--I can even play 18 holes there no problem. The course is nice and green and in good shape. My husband usually accompanies me and he still finds it challenging, and he has played golf for years. I would recommend to a friend!
