The Club at Grandezza Reviews

Every guest that walked into The Club at Grandezza in Estero, FL, was blown away by the beauty, elegance and class of a country club. The quality of food was amazing, most of our guests choose the filet mignon, 91 ordered that selection and each one came out perfect and hot, it was so tender we literally cut it with a butter knife. The sea scallops melted in your mouth, not to mention all their other meal selections.
The staff was so accommodating and efficient, anything you needed, they were there!
I would recommend The Club at Grandezza to all, you will not be disappointed. It was a fairy tail wedding, just perfect. All our guest were in awe.

My son and daughter-in-law were married at Grandezza in March 2024. The venue is so beautiful and the food was absolutely amazing! The wait staff was exceptional and so incredibly friendly and attentive. My favorite person however was Sadie, our wedding coordinator. She always responded quickly to any question I had for her as we live in California. She was so awesome, funny and just enjoyable!

Sadie was amazing to work with! And the whole Grandezza staff did not disappoint on wedding day. Our day was perfect and we love the Grandezza! the outside ceremony space is what really sold us but it was also stress free with all the help the Grandezza staff offered.

We love love love this venue! Our wedding was beautiful ,ceremony and reception was perfect. The staff was extremely helpful and kind. The food was amazing down to the last bite. Everything was AMAZING! Thank you Grandezza !!!

Lance and his team exceeded my expectations every step of the way. They truly made me feel like my husband and I were the most important people in the world! Lance went out of his way to ensure my requests were fulfilled and never made me feel like an inconvenience. They are efficient and very organized! I am forever grateful and will rave about my wedding venue for years to come! It was a dream come true.

Honestly, we cannot say enough good things about this venue. Everything was just perfect! Maija is an absolute DELIGHT to work with! She was very calm, organized, and always made you feel at ease and that things would be taken care of. The chef there was just terrific! Everybody keeps telling me how amazing the food was at the wedding, from the sit down dinner to the cocktail hour. I had a few people that due to allergies/gluten free needed to have special meals. The chef was able to accommodate everybody and everyone was able to eat without issues. The wait staff was on top of it, the bartender on top of it, everyone did their job above and beyond! The facilities are beautiful, the bridal suite large and spacious for getting ready. I really cannot recommend this place enough. Not a single negative thing to say. If this is within your budget, please please choose this for your wedding. You won't regret it!!

To say that The Club at Grandezza and their staff exceeded our expectations would truly be an understatement. Maija and the entire staff made our day beyond perfect from beginning to end.

My bridesmaids and I got to the wedding venue in the morning and walked into our beautiful bridal suite which already had pastries, fruit, champagne and water set up for us. A member of the staff was there bright and early with us and constantly checked in on all of us to make sure we had everything we needed throughout the day. As I was getting my makeup done in the bridal suite, my makeup artist made a comment about how she loves coming to Grandezza because of how large the bridal suite is and how great the natural lighting is. We had up to 20 people in the bridal suite at one point and not once did it feel crowded. It was truly the most perfect space.

Maija is truly an 11/10 to work with! She was always readily available to answer any questions and make updates to anything as needed. After the wedding ceremony, my husband and I were going to be taking couple’s photos around their beautifully maintained property. Maija had a golf cart waiting out front to drive us and our photographers around, so we wouldn’t have to walk. She and her assistant went above and beyond by making to-go boxes of our hors d'oeuvres, so we could snack on those while driving around. They also had a cooler on the golf cart that had cold wet towels (we got married just over a week ago, and this September heat is no joke), bottles of water and champagne. She also handed us an electric fan, so we could cool ourselves off. My husband and I were SO impressed and truly grateful because something “so small” made a huge impact on our day. Our photographers even made a comment on the back of the cart saying that they’ve never seen a property go above and beyond in this way for couples they’ve worked with, and that they now know where they’re going to get married one day. Maija is truly a rockstar, and so talented at what she does!

I also want to mention how great Grandezza’s chef is. All of the hors d'oeuvres, the salads, the main courses were so delicious. Our guests made comments throughout the night about how this was by far the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. He was also very accommodating to our guest’s dietary restrictions which helped put my mind at ease. My husband and I had donuts delivered to the property, and the chef and his team set up the donuts so beautifully and made them look amazing.

I can confidently say choosing The Club at Grandezza as our wedding venue was one of the BEST decisions we made. I absolutely can not recommend this venue enough. It is so beautiful, well maintained, and has the most wonderful staff!

We choose this venue based on the reviews we read Also from the décor, layout and pictures of the venue. Everyone at the location was professional, respond very quickly to questions and flexible with our schedule. Maija was our coordinator she was just easy to work with and made great recommendations. Our wedding day was perfect, it’s FL and raining season, she already had back up plans for the rain, the ceremony was moved to inside within minutes. Thank you for a great day. We highly recommend this venue.

The Club at Grandezza was such an amazing venue for our wedding. We were truly able to make the day ours. We had amazing service prior to the wedding while getting ready and Nikee was always just around the corner when we needed something. She was also very quick to help make the necessary changes since it did end up raining but still made it the most amazing day. The wedding went so smoothly and the service staff couldn't have been more fantastic. We truly did get everything we asked for when it came to requests. I highly recommend The Club at Grandezza for any type of wedding!

We were in awe when we first toured this venue and so were our guests on the wedding day! The design is elegant inside and out. We cannot thank Nikki and her team enough. Nikki was in contact throughout the entire planning progress and provided great suggestions - she is a true professional. We definitely had an eventful wedding and the Grandezza team were so attentive and accommodating. Thank you again to all how helped to creat the most special day for us!

Grandezza is a beautiful ceremony and reception site. We received many compliments from guest that it was "the most beautiful wedding they've ever been too". Lance, the event coordinator at Grandezza is so easy to work with and makes all wedding dreams come true. Lance is so easy going and just wants couples to have the best day on their wedding day. He checked in on me multiple times during the wedding day to make sure everything was going well and I was okay throughout the day. Giving me peace of mind that everything was going as planned with all the vendors as well. I don't want to leave out how friendly the staff is, every person I came in contact with was beyond friendly and made me feel so welcome and special. I wouldn't of wanted my wedding anywhere else other than Grandezza!

Venue is beautiful, Lance our wedding coordinator is absolutely amazing. Had an amazing time with family and friends.

The Club at Grandezza was everything I wanted in a venue. It was gorgeous and had everything we needed. Lance did an incredible job at making sure everything was perfect and added extra elements to make it even more beautiful. As a wedding planner, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to relax the day of but Lance ensured that I could. It was so beautiful!

First off - Grandezza is absolutely stunning. There are so many options to structure your day and it's close to hotels and the airport!

I'm sure everyone says these things about their venue / wedding planner...but there are great planners and then there is Lance.

He was so above and beyond from day ONE. I never felt like I wasn't taken care of. I trusted him. He helped keep me calm and helped us make great decisions for the day. 2020 was a little stressful to say the least (lol hello covid and like a gazillion FL hurricanes), but Lance always had a plan for us.

I don't think anything went wrong day of honestly. And well if something went wrong, it was obviously taken care of and I was none the wiser.

The little stuff I got grumpy about too Lance just handled with ease.

He was prompt, on time, beyond generous to me and my entire family, and did so many little "extras" to make us feel special and really taken care of. When my husband and I were walking around to all the tables to say hi, he even took our food away to make sure it stayed hot for us - what a guy. But literally he did like 100000 things like that. He just had our backs and the most genuine "i got you" attitude ever. He also kept checking in with my mom nonstop too!

I also wish I knew his staff's names because they were all such lovely humans and kept bringing us more champagne and apps and it was just awesome. They were very attentive, prompt, and kept everything nice!

Don't hesitate - book Grandezza with Lance! You will have the best and most stress free process ever, I promise you will be in the best hands!

I highly recommend the Club at Grandezza for your wedding. We had my daughters wedding there and it was so beautiful. The staff is awesome, especially Lance, their event coordinator. He will make sure everything goes off without a hitch! The food was so delicious and beautifully presented. The Club just had a makeover and is done in a light and contemporary color palette that is elegant. Don’t hesitate! You will be very pleased.

Having my wedding at Grandezza was one of the best decisions I made! Lance was beyond fantastic and the staff at Grandezza were second to none. Not to mention that the venue is absolutely gorgeous! Grandezza was the first venue that we visited and its elegance and beauty made it difficult to picture ourselves getting married anywhere else. However, what truly made a difference was Lance. The way he presented Grandezza and the way he presented himself made it an easy choice to have our wedding there. He made the entire wedding planning process a breeze and took away a lot of the stress that comes with planning a wedding, especially during a pandemic! You can tell that he truly values his work and values his couples. He genuinely wants to make your wedding day the best day ever and strives to achieve just that. He and his staff went above and beyond on my wedding day and my guests raved at how professional, kind, and amazing they were. It's because of Lance and his staff that I had the wedding of my dreams. Do not hesitate to trust Lance and Grandezza for your special day!

Grandezza is a beautiful place, what makes it so much more special is the staff that works there. Lance is the most kindest, attentive, caring person. He was without a doubt the best helper throughout our special day. If I could do this all over again, I’d choose it again!

The comments I received about my daughters wedding (8/1/20) repeatedly included the word “impeccable.”
Other venues we considered were Gulf Harbour and Sanibel Harbour, but we definitely made the right choice with Grandezza and Lance was a large part of that decision to use Grandezza. Lance made my daughter’s day like a fairy tale. The guests were thrilled with the wedding, the food, the entire experience. Lance was flexible and attentive, even when I added an after dinner course just days before the wedding and when I texted him From the limo the day of the wedding about two extra surprise guests. No problem. Biggest surprise? How much the guests loved and enjoyed the terrace outside of the ballroom.
My daughter had her fairy tale wedding. We made a few adjustments to cocktail hour due to Covid restrictions, but the day was amazing nevertheless. Grandezza is a stunning venue (newly renovated), the food is organic and delicious and best of all was Lance the wedding coordinator. His sole mission is to make you happy and to achieve that dream wedding. Thank you Lance Fletcher!!!!!!!

The remodeled clubhouse is incredibly beautiful and is the perfect place for a wedding. But what makes this experience exceptional is working with Lance and his team. Lance was incredibly accommodating for all of our ideas and was so enthusiastic about making our experience great. He went above and beyond for us and helped plan my dream wedding. The food was also delicious and Lance made sure we could customize the menu to be exactly what we wanted. We have some severe food allergies in the family, and Grandezza was able to make accommodations with no problems.

What an amazing experience with Grandezza. Lance went above and beyond to make sure our day was the very best. Even with the covid situation, it was truly amazing. Everyone is still talking about the deicious food. The staff was right there for anything and the hall was beautiful. We will recommend Grandezza and Lance to anyone in the future.

Best decision I ever made was booking my wedding here. I was so nervous how to plan a wedding or what to do but Lance made me feel at ease and made EVERYTHING SO EASY! He replies to your emails super fast, and if you are envisioning something, he is all over it to make it happen. I booked here because of Lance, and the beautiful venue was an added bonus. Everyone talked how beautiful this place was.

Our wedding was flawless thanks to Lance and staff. Lance was very receptive and helpful in the planning and just a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend!

Lance is the man! This event coordinator is the apotheosis of customer service, diligence, and integrity. There’s a difference between having a wedding and having your dream come into reality. The Grandezza, under the leadership of this coordinator, goes above and beyond to deliver on it’s promise of greatness.

Lance Fletcher, Grandezza’s director of banquets & catering services, was absolutely outstanding to work with and the venue itself was equally amazing. My husband and I are very organized type-A teachers, and my mom & dad never miss a detail...if we could let our hair down and put everything in Lance’s hands the day of, you can too! He had my timeline memorized backward and forward and was leading me through the day with gentle check-ins. (Something that I would trust next to no one with- but I didn’t check for the time once on the big day- I knew he’d have me where I needed to be!) A few weeks after the wedding we were out with friends and learned one of our guy friends ran into a water-filled four foot tall foot glass vase with floating candles causing it to shatter on the floor just outside the ballroom- no one in my family, including my four nieces and two nephews that were running everywhere that night, even knew it happened... my friend said the staff had it cleaned up and vacuumed before the next song came on. Lance simply took care of it.

My wedding ceremony was at a nearby church at noon, and hair and makeup started at 6am- Lance and the kitchen staff had breakfast sandwiches and fruit ready for us when we walked in the door at 5:45am- and he was happily there with a smile at the very end of the night as my parents enjoyed a nightcap in the lobby after the last guests had left. Guys, he’s amazing. From the first day of planning together, to the countless calls and emails he responded to in record time, to keeping us all sane the day of- truly a joy to work with. The venue is gorgeous- and so clean and well taken-care of! (Not a paid review, no discounts etc., just had to spread the word about what a great experience we had!) Thanks Lance!
