Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary
The Ritz-Carlton Members Golf Club is recognized by Audubon International for its environmental excellence, designated as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary
 

Pure, uncompromised golf in a natural setting free of home sites.
Long regarded as the preeminent golf course designer in the world, Tom Fazio achieves a new personal best with this spectacular, 18-hole, par-72 championship course. Members may reserve tee times by calling 1-941-309-2900.

“ The physical assets at the Members Golf Club speak for themselves and do so spectacularly well – from the beautifully planted, well sculpted course to the acres of pristine practice tees and greens and the handsome new club house, everything is a visual delight.

“ From the playing standpoint, the course is user-friendly but can play as tough as you wish depending on which of the four sets of tees you use. What you have is a very good, challenging golf course kept in excellent condition that also features uncrowded play (no small thing).

“ Best of all in my opinion is that The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club does not try to be all things to all people – it simply is totally focused on you and your golf experience. To that end, the renowned Ritz-Carlton service ethos is evident everywhere plus the golf professionals not only know their stuff, they are approachable real people. ”

“Since joining The Ritz three years ago, it has just been one wonderful experience after another.

The golf course itself is magnificently designed in a natural setting. It not only pleases the eye, but it soothes the soul with its natural beauty, yet challenges the best of a golfer’s skill. The course is well maintained by a fine group of professionals, and is kept in a condition that rivals the best clubs in America. I think that is because it is one of the best clubs in America.

We have had many guests come and play the course in the past few years from all over the country, as well as from Japan, Europe and Canada. Each one has been impressed by the beauty of the club and the professional service of the staff. They have all taken home great memories and cannot wait to return to play and enjoy the fine dining at the club and at the hotel.

We extend our highest praises to everyone, from the golf professionals, to the chef and wait staff. And, of course, our personal concierge, who not only caters to our needs in Sarasota, but arranges our travel needs at Ritz-Carlton’s around the world. What a great concept The Ritz has developed! ”

The Members Golf Club

Savor

Located on 315 acres of lush, tropical landscape, this immensely playable course is magnificently sculpted to reflect the natural beauty of its environment. It features abundant elevation changes and picturesque lakes throughout, which are so unusual for a Sarasota golf course.

Beautiful wetlands, colorful flowering shrubs, informal native grass areas, marshes with aquatic plants, and mature Oak trees enhance the natural setting, which can be easily enjoyed on foot. "This will be a terrific walking course," says Fazio, "with very reasonable connections between the greens and tees."

Select

With six sets of tees, from championship lengths of 7,417 yards to forward tees of 5,175 yards, golfers of all skill levels can play the course at a length that will challenge them. Says Fazio, "The strong low handicap player will want to attack the direct lines of play. But for the higher handicapper, we're creating options and varieties around strong hazards."
