There is no better time to plan a well-deserved golf getaway than National Golf Month, celebrated annually in August. For those looking for the finest golfing experience in the nation, The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Sarasota is the place to be.
Imagine a golf course where velvet greens gently undulate around 12 shimmering lakes, where each of the 18 holes is expertly framed to be both challenging and rewarding.

Play this par-72 course, and you will see why no golf vacation will ever be the same.
Guests will also have access to:
