WHAT'S NEW?

For dining, breakfast, lunch and dinner service will continue to be available on our main patios. Bring family and friends for a truly extraordinary dining experience with our live music and amazing sunsets seven days a week.

The Golf Shop
Current Trends in Ladies Golf Fashion
NOT JUST FOR GOLF
Ladies golf apparel has come a long way over the last few years, and we are seeing it more and more everywhere you turn, not just on the golf course. Designers have taken a more lifestyle, fashion and athletic approach to what used to be very golf specific. Depending on the designer and the brand, you can find great items in our Golf Shop, which might work just perfect for leisure, travel, business meetings, a game of tennis, or even a skort as a pool cover-up. Don’t let the word golf fool you when you want to run out and get a pair of yoga pants. You probably would be surprised to know you can find them right here in The Las Sendas Golf Shop. Don’t be shy just because you don’t play golf. We would love to show you some of the adorable outfits we have coming in this season, which work as well off the course as they do on. Happy shopping.
The Golf Shop is open, and we are having a sale.
Yes, the golf course will be closed for a few weeks for overseeding, but that doesn’t mean we close up shop. The Golf Shop will be open all month long, with slightly modified hours of 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. So, please come in and visit us. We will have a sale all month long on last season’s apparel and equipment as we make room for all our great new lines for the fall.
The golf course is closed for overseeding. The plan is to reopen on Friday, Oct. 17. To confirm and to book tee times, please call the Pro Shop at (480) 396-0440.

Want to take your golf game to the next level? Here is a growing greener experience, from Las Sendas resident Steve Curtis.
“I took up golf because I needed a hobby, something to get me out of the house. Previously, my life revolved around work and my kids. So, I needed to find something for me that I really enjoy and would continue to do for the long term. I’d played golf before, but was never very good. I had an old set of clubs that sat in the garage for a decade. Also, I work in banking, so knowing how to play is something of a career necessity. I decided to take some golf lessons with Tracy Berman, and now I’m hooked on golf.”
If you want to experience The Grass is Always Greener with Golf, contact Tracy Berman, LPGA Teaching Professional, at tberman@lassendas.com, or call (602) 920-8208 for your golf lessons. An assortment of lessons, clinics and schools are offered for men, women and juniors.
