The Club at Mediterra - South
Naples, Florida
One of two Tom Fazio courses at the Mediterra community, the South Course is considered among the finest private club experiences in Naples. The layout features Fazio's bold shaping through native Southwest Florida preserves with strategic water hazards and immaculate tropical conditioning.
History & Heritage
Mediterra\'s South Course was designed by Tom Fazio and opened around 2001 as part of the luxury Mediterra community in North Naples. The community features 36 holes of Fazio golf (North and South courses) with membership capped at 450 golf members to ensure uncrowded play.
The South Course is considered the more difficult of the two layouts. PlatinumTE Paspalum turf on tees, fairways, and greens plays firm and fast. Native preserve corridors frame holes beautifully and come into play on errant shots.
Mediterranean-inspired aesthetics with an Italianate clubhouse and a private Gulf beach club complete the experience.
Signature Holes
A demanding par 4 through native preserve corridors with deep, well-placed Fazio bunkering. The South Course\'s difficulty lies in the approach game — being on the correct side of the fairway for the angle into the green defines the outcome.
What to Expect
Tom Fazio design through native preserves and wetlands with firm, fast Paspalum turf. The South Course rewards approach-shot precision more than length. Deep bunkering is both aesthetic and penal.
The 450-member cap means tee times are readily available — a major selling point. Mediterranean-inspired clubhouse and Gulf beach club.
Residential private — membership tied to home ownership in Mediterra.
Playing Tips
Paspalum greens play firm and fast — factor in more roll on approach shots.
Being on the correct side of the fairway for approach angle matters more than distance. Position off the tee defines your score.
Deep bunkering is both beautiful and penal. Avoid it when possible.
First-timers should lean on a caddie or knowledgeable playing partner — course knowledge matters.
