PGA National Resort

I booked a golf lesson with Billy Stewart at The PGA National Golf Academy during my stay and had a great experience. He was knowledgeable, patient, and efficient, and he made a few thoughtful adjustments that immediately improved my swing. Whether you’re new to golf or a more experienced player, he does an excellent job meeting you where you are and making the lesson both productive and enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend booking a lesson with him or any of the other great instructors while visiting the PGA National Resort.

I recently participated in a mini golf school thru the David Leadbetter Golf Academy at the PGA Resort, Palm Gardens, FL and had one of my best golf lessons ever with coach Matt Hilton. He was able to quickly analyze my swing issues that were causing me to lose distance by frequently hitting behind the ball. And he came up with a few fixes that have helped me to hit down on the ball more and improved my ball hitting consistency. The best part of the lesson was that he recorded a number of my swings and used voice-over to explain the changes he wanted me to make. He then emailed me the videos so I can use them at home when I practice, just like Matt was at my side. He has also offered me access to his expertise via texting any time I have a question. I played 3 golf rounds following the golf school and managed to get a birdie on a par 4 and parred several par 3’s. Not bad for an almost 30 handicap!! I highly recommend Matt as a golf coach, no matter what your handicap or you golfing issues.

This review is focused on Tim Cantwell the golf professional . He is definitively the brightest star in the PGA golf universe. I visit at PGA one week per month and make it a point of scheduling time with Tim each visit . As a member past and present at several golf clubs I can easily state that Tim is the finest pro with whom I have taken lessons. To that end I have referred friends to him with that stellar recommendation. His golfing achievements should only be an added bonus to PGA National. From a facility perspective the improvements to the golf ranges and golf course are terrific. Dr. Steve Sherman #5197

For five star hotel the attention to detail and customer service lacking Pool is meh, rooms dated, food over priced. Highly disappointed

We’ve been members of PGA National for many years, and our experience with Golfzon Leadbetter Academy has been truly outstanding. Our son began his golf journey at age five through the junior camps led by Brad Robinson, which provided an excellent foundation in both skills and love for the game. As he’s grown, he has continued to receive exceptional coaching from Matt Hilton, Billy Stewart, and Brad Robinson, all of whom consistently go above and beyond. The instruction is thoughtful, encouraging, and focused not only on technical development, but also on building confidence, discipline, and a genuine appreciation for the game of golf. The environment is positive, professional, and incredibly supportive, making it a wonderful place for young players to grow both as golfers and as individuals. We highly recommend Golfzon Leadbetter Academy to any family with a junior or any individual seeking top-level coaching and a program that truly values the game.
