The Ultimate TPC Sawgrass Experience Just Got a Major Upgrade

If you're planning a bucket-list golf trip, you already know the TPC Sawgrass experience is legendary. It's home to the iconic 17th Island Green and The Players Championship. The premier place to stay for this pilgrimage has always been the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa, located right next to the course.

Well, that premier experience is poised to get even better.

The resort, along with the exclusive Cabana Beach Club, was just acquired by South Street Partners, a firm that specializes in one thing: world-class, luxury golf destinations.

Why This is Great News for Golfers

This isn't just a simple business transaction; it's a statement. The new owners aren't a generic hospitality group. Their portfolio is a "who's who" of bucket-list golf resorts, including:

**Kiawah Partners:** (Kiawah Island, SC)

**PGA National Resort:** (Palm Beach Gardens, FL)

**Naples Grande Beach Resort:** (Naples, FL)

**The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort:** (St. Simons Island, GA)

This team knows luxury golf. They understand what golfers traveling to an elite destination like TPC Sawgrass expect. Their acquisition signals a strong commitment to investing in and elevating the entire guest experience, ensuring the accommodations and amenities match the world-class reputation of the golf course itself.

The Best of Both Worlds: TPC Golf & Private Beach Access

This move solidifies the Sawgrass Marriott as the definitive "home base" for your TPC Sawgrass trip. When you book a golf package, you're not just getting a room; you're tapping into a complete luxury golf ecosystem.

The sale includes two key properties:

**The Sawgrass Marriott Resort & Spa:** With its 511 rooms, 80 villas, and multiple dining options, this is your seamless connection to the links. Marriott guests are offered exclusive privileges at TPC Sawgrass, making it the easiest and most immersive way to experience the course.

**The Cabana Beach Club:** This is the game-changer. After your round, you get access to this private, oceanfront resort. It features the Sea Porch restaurant, a pool, and Ponte Vedra's very first rooftop bar, the 1912 Ocean Bar & Rooftop.

Imagine it: You spend your morning walking the fairways of The Stadium Course, then spend your afternoon relaxing at a private beach club overlooking the Atlantic. That's a golf trip you'll never forget.

The Future is Bright at Sawgrass

The TPC Sawgrass experience has always been special. Now, with new stewardship from a proven leader in elite golf hospitality, it's clear that the future for visitors is brighter than ever.

There has never been a better or more exciting time to plan your visit.
