What are people saying (AI review summary)? The reviews for Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club are mixed, presenting a dichotomy between excellent recreational facilities and problematic accommodations and event management.

Reviews
My husband and I hosted our wedding at this venue, and it was absolutely perfect—from the staff to the bridal suite and all the accommodations. The coordinator, Mallory, and the venue manager, Jason, were truly amazing! They were so helpful and an absolute pleasure to work with. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose them without hesitation!
We stayed here for a wedding venue! I should have read the reviews but I didn’t! They call this place Tampa Palms Country Club - I call it Tampa Palms Country DIVE ! When we arrived and walked in -it smells old and musky. The elevator is old , with old deteriorating wood panels and old and dirty rugs. When we got off the 2nd floor it was worse. The rug near our room was dirty with bleach stains. The room IS OLD AND DATED!. Mildew on window sills and frame. When you flush the toilet you have to hold the handle down until it flushes. If it wasn’t for the Wedding venue I was attending , I would have left immediately! The day after the wedding , my husband and I was awaken by construction at 6am in the morning from the room across our room. When we called the front desk they said sorry but we have no control of this matter - we will let the GM know! I think I’ve said enough about this place!
As a long-time Invited Club Member since 1998 who has experienced numerous prestigious courses, I can confidently say that my first round at Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club ranks among the most memorable. The experience exceeded all expectations from the moment I arrived. The clubhouse staff and pro shop personnel were nothing short of exceptional. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine warmth made me feel immediately welcome. Unlike some establishments where member status feels like a mere transaction, the team at Tampa Palms treated me with sincere respect and enthusiasm. The course itself is masterfully designed, offering the perfect balance of challenge and playability. Each hole presents its own unique character with strategic bunkering, thoughtful water hazards, and meticulously maintained fairways. The greens were immaculate—true, fast, and consistent throughout all 18 holes. What truly distinguishes Tampa Palms is the attention to detail evident across the entire facility. From the pristine practice areas to the well-appointed clubhouse, every aspect reflects a commitment to excellence. The pace of play was managed effectively, allowing for an enjoyable rhythm throughout the round. For fellow Invited Club Members seeking a premium golf experience in the Tampa area, Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club delivers an exemplary level of service, course conditions, and overall value that stands alongside the finest venues I've played in my decades of membership. This hidden gem has earned its place on my must-play list for future visits to the region.
Held a dinner there. Food was very good, staff was great and view was nice.
I hosted a wedding for my BEST FRIEND LaToya Murdock in January as her Event Planner and this day was suppose to be the best day of her life and for the most part it was because she didn't know what was going on behind the scenes. The first issue was I immediately noticed was that the hor d'Oeuvres that was being passed at the cocktail hour was not what we agreed on at the tasting. The next issue was that they did not provide the proper number of staff for the number of guest that attended (140). Issue #3 - what was contracted to be provided as the wine selections was not provided to the guest at the cocktail hour. Issue 4 - the bride and groom paid for additional hours to allow time b/w cocktail hour and reception however, they still rushed the the guest to reception causing chaos with seating. The staff was VERY RUDE to the guest as well as to other Members who were also guest and when addressed it was "okay we addressed it" but the staff stated they didn't treat treat the guest no different than any other one else. No we are NOT letting it go. This was suppose to be a happy and joyous occasion for the bride and groom. The GM attempted to make it right, but was nonchalantly saying this is ALL I can do for ruining your Wedding Day! I would not recommend this venue for any event if you want a stress free environment.
