Don’t be fooled by this course’s name. Yes, there is a private membership but, the course is open to the general public as well.
With that being said, Esplanade has a reputation as one of the finest courses in Naples.
Expansive fairways, pure Bermuda greens, white sand bunkers, and ample water hazards make this track both fun and challenging.
If you can, try and play Esplanade first thing in the morning. As the sun comes up, steam rises off the ponds and the quiet, subtle sounds of nature make for a remarkable experience.
Even though it’s a little on the pricey side, Esplanade is a round you won’t soon forget.
