What does a Players Championship travel package include?

A Players Championship package pairs a stay at the Hyatt Place in Vilano Beach near TPC Sawgrass with grounds tickets for the tournament dates, March 11 to 14, 2027, plus daily shuttle transportation to the course and breakfast at the hotel. Packages start from $995 per person based on four sharing a room, covering everything from a two-day opening window to all four tournament days. Airfare to Jacksonville is booked separately.

TPC Sawgrass, Ponte Vedra Beach

The Players Championship, 2027: TPC Sawgrass Without the Guesswork

The PGA Tour's flagship event returns to the Stadium Course March 11 to 14, 2027, and the island green at 17 still decides matches before the back nine is over. We book the hotel, the shuttle, and the tickets so you just show up and watch.

TPC Sawgrass sits in Ponte Vedra Beach, a short drive south of Jacksonville, and The Players draws one of the deepest fields in golf to a course built to punish a bad swing at exactly the wrong moment. Because the tournament runs Thursday through Sunday, most visiting groups pick a window rather than book the full week: two rounds, the weekend, the finish, or all four days. Every package below is built around a stay at the Hyatt Place in Vilano Beach with grounds access and transportation handled, and a quote-only option exists for couples, small rooms, or a private group who want something built around their own dates.

At a glance

  • Stay at the Hyatt Place in Vilano Beach, minutes from the beach and a shuttle ride from TPC Sawgrass
  • Grounds tickets matched to the days you actually want to be there
  • Round-trip shuttle transportation to the course built into every package
  • Breakfast at the hotel each morning of your stay
  • A low deposit holds your spot, with the balance split into two later payments
  • See the island green at 17 in person, still the most-watched shot in golf
  • A golf-and-watch package that pairs a round at Slammer and Squire with tournament access

The trip

Day by day

Day 1, Wednesday, March 10, 2027 Arrival at Vilano Beach

Check into the Hyatt Place and settle in near the beach. Grounds are open for practice rounds at TPC Sawgrass if your package window includes early access, and the shuttle schedule for tournament week is confirmed at check-in.

Included: Breakfast at the hotel

Day 2, Thursday, March 11, 2027 Round One at TPC Sawgrass

Shuttle over to the Stadium Course for the tournament's opening round. Grounds passes get you access to walk the course and post up at any hole, including the par-3 17th, where the island green has ended more than a few good rounds.

Included: Breakfast at the hotel

Day 3, Friday, March 12, 2027 Round Two and the Cut

Friday decides who plays the weekend. Expect a bigger, louder crowd than Thursday, especially around the back nine as the leaderboard tightens heading into moving day.

Included: Breakfast at the hotel

Day 4, Saturday to Sunday, March 13 to 14, 2027 Weekend Rounds and Championship Sunday

Saturday's round sets the final pairings, and Sunday closes with the tournament's biggest shots at 16, 17, and 18. Packages covering the weekend or final rounds run through Sunday's finish before checkout.

Included: Breakfast at the hotel

What the ticket is

Seating and access

Grounds access

Standard

A grounds pass gets you anywhere on the course that isn't a ticketed club, which at TPC Sawgrass means you can post up at 17 for an hour, then walk to 18 to watch the same groups finish.

Hospitality club upgrades

Upgrade

Ticketed clubs along the course add shaded seating, food and drink, and a fixed view instead of standing room. These are priced per day and arranged separately from the base package.

The island green at 17

Highlight

The most-watched hole on Tour. Grounds passes let you camp out here for a stretch and watch a full wave of groups play it, which is worth building into any day's plan.

Play-and-watch combination

Signature

The golf package pairs a round at the Slammer and Squire course with a single tournament day, a way to play golf yourself and still catch a round of the championship.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Where do we stay, and how far is it from TPC Sawgrass?

The Hyatt Place in Vilano Beach, a beach town just north of St. Augustine. It's a shuttle ride from the course rather than walking distance, and that shuttle is built into every package.

What does the quad occupancy price actually mean?

The listed price is per person when four people share one hotel room. If you're traveling as a couple or want your own room, we quote it separately since the per-person cost goes up as fewer people split the room.

How does the payment schedule work?

A deposit holds your spot now, then 50% of the remaining balance is due September 30, 2026, with the final payment due January 7, 2027. No one payment is due all at once.

Which package should I book if I only care about the weekend?

The Friday and Saturday Rounds package covers moving day into the third round. If you want to see the trophy handed out, the Final Rounds package runs through Championship Sunday instead.

Is airfare included?

No. You fly into Jacksonville International Airport on your own, and we can arrange a private shuttle from there to the hotel for an additional cost.

Can I upgrade to hospitality seating or a better hotel?

Yes. Hospitality club access, single or double rooms, and upgraded hotels closer to the course are all available. Tell us what matters most and we'll quote a version of the trip built around it.

Booking and logistics

How does payment and the deposit work?

You reserve your package with a per-person deposit and pay the balance on a set schedule, with final payment typically due 60 days before departure. Deposits and payments are non-refundable and non-transferable, so we recommend travel insurance to protect what you pay. Your booking is transacted by a licensed tour operator whose full written terms govern your trip, and no payment is taken through this website. The full terms are on our legal and disclosures page.

Can you plan a trip for one person or a couple?

Yes. Package prices are quoted per person and depend on how many people share a room, so solo travelers and couples are quoted accordingly. Tell us your group and we will price it honestly.

Can you handle a large group?

Yes. We handle private groups, typically parties of eight or more, with dedicated coordination for the tickets, hotel, and logistics so everyone travels together smoothly.

Is Sports Travel Zone a legitimate, licensed agency?

Yes. We are a registered seller of travel, California CST 2155818-70 and Florida ST43282, a service of Early and Away Travel, LLC. Your booking is fulfilled by a licensed tour operator, and we earn a commission when you book.

What is your cancellation and refund policy?

Deposits and payments are non-refundable and non-transferable, and event tickets and hotel-only reservations are final once booked. If you cancel, any amount already paid cannot be refunded, which is why we strongly recommend travel insurance. If an event is postponed or cancelled, you receive updated tickets or a credit only to the extent the ticket or hotel vendor refunds the operator. The full terms are on our legal and disclosures page and are provided to you in writing before you book.
