The Sanctuary Golf Club in Sanibel Island, Florida, boasts a meticulously maintained private championship golf course surrounded by the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. The 18-hole layout weaves and winds for 6,657 yards around nature preserves and lakes, providing panoramic views of the Pine Island Sound and mangrove forests. On the course, members can enjoy seeing various birds and exciting wildlife that inhabit The Sanctuary.

 Architects Arthur Hills and Spencer Holt designed the par 72 golf course. It features 18 superbly conditioned holes, providing a premier golfing experience for its members. Hills himself describes the course as his "island masterpiece." The club's golf course opened in 1992 and quickly gained recognition, hailed as one of the best private courses by Golf Digest shortly after its inauguration. 

 Hills' vision for the course is reflected in its features, making it a challenging yet aesthetically pleasing environment for golfers. His signature hole at the course is Hole 4, which is a challenging par three that will require careful club selection due to prevailing northwesterly winds and the large green complex tilted from back to front. Golfers must also take note of the excellent experience they'll get once they pass Hole 17, which many consider one of the best four pars in southwest Florida. 

 Additionally, the club provides top-notch facilities, including a grass practice range, a short game area, a putting green, and a full-service golf shop. The club offers both equity and social membership options, making it accessible to a range of golf enthusiasts.

Apart from the pristine golf course, Sanctuary members have access to a driving range, a putting green, and a pitching green for practice rounds. They can also visit one of Golf World's top 25 golf shops for residential communities, dine at the club's premier restaurant and bar, play tennis or bocce, or relax at the spa.
