Played the Dunes/Lake combination and was totally impressed with everything. Course staff were really helpful, course was in magnificent condition. Dunes 9 made me really think my way around, risk and reward came into play and even for a high handicapper the challenge was fantastic. The Lake 9 was a lot more open and allowed a little more grip and rip, but still with concequences for bad golf. Would certainly visit again to play the “infamous” Quarry 9. Just have to be very nice to the other half until next years birthday treat.

joondalup is one of the finest courses in australia.this course is aimed at the better player if you think you can come out there and bomb some long drives get ready to meet danger.This course is for the thinking golfer where position will win over length.The quarry nine is my favorite it is nine holes where you cant wait to see what the next hole will bring.the dunes and lakes are good but wont excite you like the quarry will.if you come out wanting a score in the seventies good luck its hard work i have done it once.The greens at joondalup are big but when you put on them they are very fast if you have a down hill put you might break a sweat.the service is first class.

Joondalup’s quarry 9 has lived up to all my expectations and then some. Better then Kooyong, Grange GC, and Hope Island from my opinion. Quality was A1. I was tight and the windy conditions made it difficult but not matter what shotyou had to play there was a challenge.

I can see why Joondalup Resort is rated Australia's #1 Resort Golf Course. From the customer service to the quality of the course, it is the highest standard I have experienced in the country and will keep me coming back. If you only have time for one round or just want a special treat, you will not be disappointed with Joondalup, even in winter it is beautiful. You have got to play the Quarry course, wow!

I played the quarry couse and its very unforgiving. If you hit a wrong stroke and will pay for it. I took a few risky strokes and it didnt pay off. I would recommend taking the easier way out otherwise you will lose alot of balls in the quarry like i did.

the green were very fast.

the only problem i do have with Joondalup course was that i was not allowed to walk around the course and was forced to hire a cart.

OVERALL - very good.

Not a course for golf traditionalists - outlandish and over the top and therefore loved by some as violently as it is hated by others. Different, which is about the best I can say about it - objectively however there seemed to be a lot of up hill approach shots from deep valleys, which can get a bit tiresome after a while.

If you want to see where the rich play their golf, or treat yourself to one of the best courses in Australia... Joondalup is a good place to be. With 3 sets of 9 holes, each with a different set of challenges, there is something for every level of golfer.

As a 18'ish handicapper, I find I play my best golf at Joondalup as it forces you to think about your shots. The hit and hope player will find themselves more often than not in trouble, either in the numerous fairway bunkers or in the very unforgiving rough.

The fairways are always in excellent condition and the greens superb, with tough flag positions to keep you honest. The bunkers are plentiful, although most not too deep - the Quarry 4th a noteable exception. If you're in that bunker, a double figure score could be in sight.

While more expensive than most other courses around Perth, not many match either the condition or challenge of Joondalup. Easy to see why it's rated in the top 10 courses in Australia.

I hate the place as it offends my sense of aesthetics, but on the other hand I can see how others love it. Which ever way you lean it is one of Australia's unique courses - worth playing just so you can form an opinion.

One of the more interesting courses I have played. 3 nines, each with different qualities. Some unusual design, especially around the quarry.

I found judging distance difficult as many of the features are larger than life & often make things look closer than they are.

There is a gimmick value to some of the design, but it doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the experience.

At the tail end of my Perth Holiday I had been "wowed" out with the great courses of the west, but Joondalup beat them all hands down. Quite apart from the happy, friendly and helpful staff all over the place the course is fantastic - split fairways, menacing bunkers, carpet-like fairways, true-rolling greens that reward a well placed approach, punishing rough and lovely views too. The place gets a lot of traffic but the course presents SO well. If you have to choose, make sure you play the Quarry nine. The first is neat and tidy, but turn to the second and the beauty of this place is laid out in all it's glory. And hey, if the clubs are letting you down, use the camera instead.

Played there 1999. Course staff were so helpful. Course was exceptional in layout and maintenance. Pro shop staff were equally helpful. I played mid week during a trip around Australia. I am a parochial Queenslander and when Hope Is here was getting great plaudits as a resort course at that time I really felt Joondalup should have been rated higher. It is a scenic challenging course. Any golfer who goes to WA and doesn't play Joondalup is missing out on a special golfing experience. I will be going there again when I get to WA on our next trip!
