Palm meadows is a great course and fair for players of varying abilities. It has something for everyone. I played the course over the Christmas and New Year period during which the course had received a fair bit of rain which it coped with quite well. Not all courses drain well in Qld and they can tend to be soggy underfoot but Palm Meadows coped quite well. Service was top notch. The only slight downer for me was the number of unrepaired pitch marks on the greens. This is a pet hate of mine as it illustrates a lack of common courtesy of some golfers toward their fellow golfers. To me it is outside the spirit of golf to not repair your pitch marks.

Beautiful resort course. Great for everyone even the ladies. Service was excellent.

Very nice course: long, wide, scenic, rough is not too severe, water not excessive, unlike some other Gold Coast courses.

Contrast this review with my other one on the Twin Waters course! Palm Meadows provided our four with a golfing service experience which we are all relaying to anyone who will listen. from the time we called to book a tee time the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. They even pre-booked breakfast for us in the restaurant for 7.00am and we arrived there they knew we were coming! The helpfulness shown by everyone meant that the round was very enjoyable, despite much of the golf we played.

Thanks for making us so welcome at your course.

A typical good resort course. Not to hard, but not easy either. Will appeal to golfers of all levels. I thought the condition was a little poor for what I expected. Still good though. Worth a game.

Palm Meadows hosted the first Aussie Social Golf Clubs Championship in early September and all I really have to say is WOW!

The $590 tournament fee was awesome value which included 5 rounds of golf, cart, 2 functions (including all the grog a camel can drink!), a gift pack that actually had some groovy stuff in it for a change! I bought my girlfriend along and we stayed at the Radisson Resort for $319 bucks each and that included a hot brekky all 5 days so she was stoked to not have to cook and lay by the pool all week while I went off with my mates from the event to play at this famous Aussie golf course. We both made a stack of new mates, were treated like royalty by the staff and will definately be back at this top course next year. I can't recommend the event enough!!!

There are also a couple of other gems on the layout:

The Par 5 9th is another good example of chewing off as much water as you dare. The water nips in on both sides of the approach and the elevated green is always a trick to come up short.

11th per 3 is a V Good hole.

That $45 rate with cart is by far the best value on the Gold Coast.

Took the chance of a standby game ($45 before 7-30am) and was pleasantly surprised by the service and standard of the course. This not a place where you automatically reach for driver and blast away as the water is strategically placed to gobble any slightly off line shot. I believe the ... Show

Took the chance of a standby game ($45 before 7-30am) and was pleasantly surprised by the service and standard of the course.

This not a place where you automatically reach for driver and blast away as the water is strategically placed to gobble any slightly off line shot.

I believe the two feature holes to be:

1st 353m Par 4

Tee shot must be left of a huge bamboo clunp (remember The Shark) but right of the water - an intimidating opening tee shot.

18th 523m Par 5

How much of the huge lake do you take on with your drive generally into the prevailing wind? Once on the fairway you have to cross water again before reaching the green - bring your best game.

Enjoyed the game, the refreshment cart had cold beer and lunch afterwards on the terrace overlooking the course was very pleasant.

Palm Meadows might get a bit overlooked these days as the newer courses such as Lakelands and The Glades have come on line but it's maturity has it up there in comparison.
