Jim McLean Golf School at The Biltmore Hotel

I’ve been taking group lessons with Nick Hayes at the Miami Beach location for almost a year now. I’m a part of a ladies golf association here in Miami and once a month Nick teaches a different topic to my group. He makes lessons fun and interesting. He has so much patience for us and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. I’ve often been told by some of the ladies that the lessons with Nick are their favorite and I absolutely agree with them.

Go check out the Sunday clinic! Great experience for both beginners and seasoned players. Mitch and Shawn on the McLean team are smart and approachable guys who understand the game well with a positive and proven style of teaching. Left with a little more confidence and looking forward to coming back soon!

Time and money well spent. Rafael was easily able to identify issues and provide guidance on correcting them. Also used video to show my son before and after on each type of shot. We booked a 90 minute lesson focused on short game and it was excellent! Beautiful facilities too.

My husband and I had a great time at the 3 day golf school! I can’t say enough about the format, instruction, and setting for the program. Glen, our amazing instructor, was so helpful and knowledgeable at each step of the school. As a beginner, he was able to quickly recognize my strengths and areas of improvement and help me develop next steps. He used his expertise and knowledge to guide our lessons and instructor. Each of us (only 3 in our group) had a great time and gained unmatched coaching and experiences. I highly recommend Jim McLean Golf School for all ages and golf leveled. We hope to return soon!

Patricia was an excellent teacher, helping to make instant improvements. She's kind, has a great eye for what can be improved and able to provide swift simple adjustments. I nearly instantly unlocked an additional 20 yards with my 7i in our first lesson. Additionally she provided water, a towel (it's hot out there!), trackman analysis and video commentary that can be reviewed later. Highly recommend.

We recently took part in a Father’s Day Clinic, where my boys and I had the chance to enjoy the McLean facilities and receive some much-needed instruction to sharpen our golf skills. One of my sons had been battling a serious slice, but with just a bit of expert coaching, the difference has been remarkable. The attached video—filmed at another course two days later—shows just how effective that training was. Needless to say, he (and the rest of us) couldn’t be happier with the results. Great staff, great experience!

I took the three day clinic with Brando. He was patient, informative, and extremely helpful. In our time together he turned my weak fade into a consistently powerful draw. I have had a lot of golf instruction over the years but I can definitively say that Brando was the best and most useful instructor that I have had. In addition to great golf education, he is a wonderful person and very easy to get along with.

Martin and Mitch are truly outstanding golf coaches. They are patient, knowledgeable, and thorough. They have been guiding my son since he first picked up the game in 2020, helping him build his skills and grow his love for the sport. Thanks to their coaching and encouragement, he just competed in his very first tournament and placed third out of more than 40 kids. It was a proud moment for him and a true testament to their teaching.

I absolutely loved my lesson today with Jim McLean. His knowledge of the game is incredible. He gives excellent advice. I immediately experienced improvements and can't wait to go back.

As a member of the Biltmore its a great privilege to have Mcleans school move from Doral to Coral Gables. Instructors are top notch, friendly, reasonably priced and extremely knowledgeable. Expect immediate improvement after each lesson. I strongly recommend Grayson and Chad, but can't go wrong with any of the instructors.
