Miami Turnberry (Miller)
JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort (Miller course): here at one of Miami's classiest resorts, you'll find two excellent championship courses, the Miller and Soffer courses (formerly called the North and South). Both layouts are playable by resort guests and members of the onsite Turnberry Isle Country Club.
Ray Floyd's redesign of the resort's two courses gave this luxury Miami resort two distinctly different layouts. Although shorter, more forgiving and lacking some of the landscaping and planting that characterises the Soffer (Turnberry's jewel in the crown), the Miller course is nonetheless an absorbing and excellent test of golf.
Towering condo blocks may look down on proceedings from outside the resort, but not so as to detract from the oasis-like character of the course. The holes are attractively defined by a liberal scattering of slender palms and black olive trees, while an excellent array of crater-like, white-sand bunkers hug the fairways and defend the immaculately maintained greens.
Water makes several telling appearances on the Miller's front-nine, becoming an even greater peril on the inward loop, where you journey around a good-sized lake from the par-3 12th to the excellent par-4 16th; all five of these holes are bounded by water on the rightside - a potential nightmare for slicers of the ball!
When water is not present, wayward shots will come to rest on grassy earthmounds, which is less penalising than catching the more abundant and thicker vegetation of the Soffer course. Again resonating with the Soffer course, the Miller's par-5 18th is memorably enhanced by a spectacular waterfall, with ficus trees and excellent bunkering also adding to the scenic finish.
Stay&Play at Miami Turnberry: luxury onsite accommodation is available at this top-quality resort (see Where2Stay section below).
Resort guests (staying at JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort) can book to play on weekdays and weekends.

Turnberry Isle's Soffer course has hosted many top-level tournaments including the US Seniors PGA Championship (a seniors' Major) on three occasions in 1979-81, with Arnold Palmer winning the title here in 1980. More recently the US LPGA Tour have competed on the Soffer and Miller courses (see our Tournaments section >by Venue >Turnberry Isle).

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises. Explore the grounds, connect with others, embrace new challenges, and dive into an unforgettable celebration. Click here to buy tickets.
