Impressive Course & Staff

While vacationing in a condo next to this course I got a “Hot Deal” and played this Kiva Dunes for the first time. Tee boxes, fairways, greens (and sand traps) all were in great shape, well maintained. Course layout was somewhat challenging but yet playable for players of all skill levels.
All of the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. The marshal (I forgot his name) was super friendly and engaged in good conversation while I was waiting on the group of 3 that I was teamed up with as a lone golfer.
Free, unlimited range balls with several targets on the range were a big plus. I recommend playing Kiva Dunes and would play again if/when in the area. It’s a nice classy course with a welcoming feel.

Kiva Dunes

It was raining before and a little during round and course was still in amazing shape. Had difficult holes along with some open holes and was a great course to play. Staff in clubhouse and Marshall were very friendly and pace of play was good. Will definitely be returning in the future.

Great course in a challenging location

Cuba dunes is a great course with the added difficulty of the near constant coastal wind. I would recommend this course to anyone who has been thinking of playing at Kiva

Great Day

This would be all 5 Stars but they had aerated the greens. We were aware of this prior to booking! It is an amazing place with great service and clubhouse! Hope to return!

Terrific

Played with a gentleman named Dan. Swing looks like he would be around bogey but is actually a scratch golfer. Like dusted my tale…. his course knowledge helped tremendously though I was rarely able to capitalize on it. Dan I hope you and your family make it to Mikees!

Great!

Great course! Tight in spots but fair. Greens fast and didn’t hold approach shots from more than 100 yds but roll was true and condition good. Best course played in area by a lot!

Great course wrong week

Overall we really enjoyed playing the course. Wide open fairways for the most part that suits my driver off the tee. Greens were in great shape and fast!!! Since it was Mullet Toss week there were some foursomes on the course that impeded our progress but even with those challenges it was an amazing experience. Would definitely return there no question.
