LOCATION AND PRICES

Here is a very special location for golfers who demand the best and enjoy the beauty of a perfectly restored Historic National Treasure, The Renaissance Vinoy Resort and Golf Club, on the waterfront of Saint Petersburg, Florida.

The showplace of St. Petersburg's scenic waterfront, the 360-room Renaissance Vinoy Resort and Golf Club recalls the style and glamour of another era. Overlooking sparkling Tampa Bay and surrounded by lush grounds, this opulent resort has been named to the National Register of Historic Places. The property's grand furnishings and vintage architectural detail surround guests in elegance. Renaissance Vinoy Resort is the only luxury resort on Florida's west coast with the combination of a private marina, 18-hole golf course, and 12-court tennis complex. Few resorts in the country can claim facilities as diverse. The resort is central to the area's many cultural and entertainment attractions, including the Salvador Dali Museum, The Mahaffey Theater, "The Pier", Fine Arts Museum, Florida International Museum, Tropicana Field, BayWalk, and two bayside beaches.

The golf course is a classic, meticulously maintained beauty that is a challenge and a joy for all who play it. Originally a 1925 Donald Ross design with a facelift by Ron Garl in later years, The Vinoy Club winds through lakes and mangroves on a wonderful adventure, a testimony to Florida golf at its finest. Each hole has its own character, and everyone who plays here always looks forward to the next time they come back. Naturally, the clubhouse and service are extraordinary too.

These schools will be run by PGA Professional Patrick Livingston.
