Have no idea where you get your information. The developer already controls Cane Garden, Palmer and Lighthouse. He made a major mistake with Havana because the controlling partner brought in George Stella as a smoke-screen. When Havana's lease expires, Kris is gone.

I agree about Havana but the Villages would rather be out of the restaurant business and just collect lease payments. Cane Garden used to be on the lifestyle card for potential home buyers but not any more. Like I said my source is in a position know about these things. Palmer and the Lighthouse were Privately run in the past so it's not unusual for the Villages to try to find a new owner/operator.

Played golf today with a fellow who works at Havana. He informed me that the opening for Bonifay had been pushed back to either 11/21 or 11/27. He said that the course just wasn't ready yet. He did tell me there are some very interesting holes [BIG elevation changes] on the courses.

For what it's worth....

Hope they change their menu!

Where is the Bonifay CC?

I heard from a reliable source that the golf shop will open at Bonifay on 11/7. The Sarasota driving range will also open the same day from the other side of the pond, as well as the new golf academy.

Yes, I heard that when I was at the Colony driving range yesterday which will move across the pond Nov. 7th to be part of the academy.

Bonifay is south of 466A and west of the new firehouse, next to the Village of Sanibel.


We took a ride over to Bonifay on Sunday and walked around the outside. Great view from the back patio. Interesting design to the bars there. Inside bar goes across the back of the restaurant so that the patrons are looking out at the golf course with an "S" shape to it. The outside patio bar is opposite the inside bar.

I happen to catch a picture of one of the first patrons. I hope the service is better in November

I will have to cross 466a to get to Bonifay and was wondering whether I have to go down to Morse Blvd. or will there be a way that I could cut across the course. I know where Bonifay is located and have been there by car but I would prefer not to have to go to Morse to get there.

John, it'll either need to be Morse or Buena Vista to get into the Sanibel/Bonifay area. Canal St. doesn't extend across 466A.

Here's a map that will show you all the streets, etc. in the area:
