Great place for kids, our 10 year old had a blast, challenging enough for all of us to enjoy it. Great decorations at every stop. You feel kind of rushed though because the people in front of you are not done yet and the people behind you are already breathing on your neck.. The feeding of the baby gators was not very exciting because they were all just sleeping on a rock and not hungry.
My husband and I are new to the area and wanted to do something fun for Christmas just the two of us. This was it. They did amazing job with the 18 hole golf course. The caves and Decor are very cool. Also enjoyed feeding the gators. We had a blast and plan on coming back soon. Thank you so much for being open on the holidays, we have you all had a Merry Christmas becase we sure did.
We had a great time playing mini golf at Smugglers Cove Adventure Golf! The entire course is designed in a fun pirate theme, with caves, bridges, waterfalls, and lots of creative details that make the experience really enjoyable. One of the highlights is the alligator enclosure — you can even feed the baby alligators by purchasing food at the counter for $4.50, which was a unique and exciting touch. Our game cost $18.99 per person, and we also grabbed some drinks to enjoy while playing. Up to 4 people can play on one scorecard, but our group was larger, so we simply took turns, and it worked out perfectly. The course has 17 holes, and the 18th hole gives you a chance to win a free game, which is a fun way to end the round. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. The only small thing we noticed was that some of the fountains and artificial streams could use a bit more cleaning—they add a lot to the atmosphere, so keeping them fresh would make the place even more amazing. Overall, it’s a fantastic place for families, groups, and anyone looking for a fun activity. Highly recommend! 🏴☠️⛳🐊
Sweet staff and interesting decor. It was during the day so maybe that is why the water falls and such were not on. Poor alligators looked hot but it was fun to feed them
Smuggler’s Cove in Bradenton is a fantastic place for family fun and a little friendly competition. The pirate theme is done really well, and the course is both creative and challenging enough to keep everyone engaged. Each hole feels unique, and the overall setting is well kept and enjoyable to walk through. A big highlight is the live alligators, getting to feed them adds a special touch you don’t find at most mini golf spots. The staff is always welcoming and makes sure guests have a great experience from start to finish. It’s the kind of spot that works equally well for kids, adults, or even a date night. A Bradenton gem that’s always worth a visit!
