TURNBERRY ISLE - SOFFER COURSE

AVENTURA, FL

Last year brought big changes at the award-winning Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club. With a $30 million budget, the resort retained Raymond Floyd to redesign both courses at the resort. The results of Mr. Floyd's efforts exemplify the best of Florida golf. The Soffer (formerly South) Course is now a par-71, 6933-yard layout. Brilliant hues of colorful flora and trees indigenous to Florida's tropical climate create an oasis-like feel throughout the course giving nearly each hole a private feel. A spectacular waterfall, one of several throughout both courses, will greet guests at the 1st hole green. This just sets up a course that seemingly gets better hole after hole.
