Puerto del Sol Golf Course and Learning Center

HIGHLY unsafe course. This is a City - tax money - funded course with huge safety issues and a staff that has been incompetent for years by leaving them unresolved. - The back fence for the driving range is only 15 feet tall and a little under 250 yards from the placement of the tee boxes for it. On the other side of the fence is the starting tee box for a hole on the course. If you can hit further than 250yds you will land on the other side of the fence. - I have had multiple staff members from the course tell me that people have complained about balls going over and almost hitting them while golfing, and just today an older gentleman working the register told me that he has almost been hit from balls going over while he was out on on the course. So the staff is clearly aware of the issue, and I'm sure has been for years. - There are no warning signs or anything about being careful not to hit over 250yds, and I have occasionally seen a worker come out and ask someone to stop hitting over the fence. This is ALL the corrective action that is available, and by that time people could have been hit on the other side of the fence already. So the staff doesn't have a competent plan in action to secure it's customers on the course. That this hazardous course is taxpayer funded is sad. The City should pull funding until the problem is fixed, and I'm sure a fix can be found even as simply as raising the fence or installing netting that extends above the fence. It's a disregard for the safety of it's customers. Also, the other city courses tend to be kept in better condition and can offer a better experience than Puerto del Sol. I highly recommend Ladera.

I’ve played here twice and it really is a very nice public course. The first time I played was on a Thursday and it was Fantastic, Beautiful greens!! I took some my brother in law on a Sunday and it was less fantastic. I called and asked if they had a left handed set to rent to my B-in-L and they said yes and they charged $10. The “set” they rented him included a putter, and a hybrid and TWO 5 irons (one of which was a junior club). That’s it! Really? We paid over $60 with a cart and you couldn’t let him use those as a courtesy? Also, not in anyway a knock on the course, but there was a very enthusiastic audiophile in the neighboring apartment complex absolutely abnoxiously jamming Spanish music for you to hear on the entire course. Point being, if you go it’s likely best to go during the week when the audiophile is presumably working or sleeping and bring your own clubs.

The fairway was not well maintained even in the middle of it. (I'll give it a 2.5 stars) Hole 3 (the one there's a big big tank on the left side of fairway) green was under maintenance, while the temporary green was not mowed at all, you barely can put. Hole 9 is right by the highway, be careful not to drive your ball out to it (a local guy played with me did it 😂)

This place resurfaced it's a putting green for practice 3 weeks ago it looks great and is wonderful to practice at. Just to the south of the clubhouse they have an excellent chipping green. Great prices friendly staff and a very accessible pro who freely answers questions to customers. Great 9-hole cours and ideal for practicing.

I just went to the driving range, so I cannot speak for the rest of the course, but it looked nice. The driving range goes out to about 250 yards and there is plenty of room. There is plenty of room to swing and we didn't have any problems getting a spot at the time we went (a Saturday morning). Very nice view and nice staff, a large bucket of balls is $10 and will last you and a friend about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how fast you go through them. There is also an area to practice putting right behind the range. Very nice, I look forward to coming back and playing a full game.
