2026 PASSOVER PROGRAM ATThe PGA National
Resort & SPAflorida

One of the standout features of the PGA program is the five tournament-ready golf courses, designed by legendary architects like Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Tom Fazio, George Fazio, and Karl Litten. These courses host major events (such as the Honda Classic), so guests are walking on storied terrain. Even if you’re not a pro, the resort’s layout offers a variety of challenges — from undulating greens to “The Bear Trap” holes (15–17), which are notoriously demanding. For guests who want to improve their game or get coaching, the resort’s golf infrastructure supports lessons, practice facilities, and a true golfer’s getaway. It’s a perfect destination for those who want to combine relaxation, spiritual renewal, and great golf.

The resort boasts a 33,000-square-foot Health & Racquetball Center, which includes a full gym, weight and cardio rooms, and studios for yoga, Pilates, and spinning. For aquatic activities, there is a zero-entry family pool plus a separate lap pool and a dedicated children’s pool, giving options for both exercise and relaxation. Spa lovers will enjoy the 40,000-square-foot European-style spa, which offers more than 100 treatments in 56 treatment rooms, plus a full salon. A highlight is “The Waters of the World,” a mineral pool complex with salts imported from across the globe — a truly global wellness experience. The combination of wellness, fitness, and relaxation makes the resort a retreat within a retreat, especially meaningful during Passover.

Kosherica partners with Foremost Caterers to provide the gourmet Passover cuisine at PGA National, under the glatt kosher supervision of International Kosher Mehadrin (Rabbi Berel Simpser). The food program is very rich: there are elegant dining rooms, lively tea rooms, and poolside BBQs, offering a wide variety of dining styles for different moods. The afternoon and evening tea rooms are particularly indulgent, stocked with cakes, cookies, chocolates, and other Passover treats. Kosherica emphasizes quality, creativity, and tradition, so guests can enjoy meals that feel special, well-prepared, and authentically Passover. The result is more than just holiday food — it’s a culinary celebration.

Kosherica offers a Kids Day Camp at PGA National, staffed by experienced counselors, making sure children are engaged, safe, and having fun throughout the day. For very young children, there is an infant care program, so parents don’t have to worry about childcare while enjoying adult programming or relaxing. The teen program is designed especially for older kids, with tailored activities, social opportunities, and meaningful engagement. In addition, there is a daily professional sports camp, giving kids a chance to learn, play, and challenge themselves under the guidance of skilled coaches. This robust structure helps parents fully relax, knowing their children are well looked after and enjoying their own high-quality Passover experience.

The 2026 program at PGA National features speakers such as Natasha Hausdorff— a barrister and commentator on international law, especially with expertise in foreign affairs and national security. Simcha Leiner, a well-known Jewish music artist, brings a musical and spiritual dimension to the retreat. Nadav Eyal, Rabbi Elie Weinstock, Rabbi Steven Burg (CEO of Aish) and Rabbi Yitz Novak (AIPAC N.E. Initiative) are also part of the scholar lineup, offering deep, spiritual, and community-focused teachings. This diversity of voices makes the program intellectually stimulating and spiritually uplifting for attendees of all ages.

The entertainment at PGA National is designed to be “non-stop” and delightfully surprising: Kosherica brings in illustrious illusionists, hypnotists, and magicians, ensuring each night has a wow factor. There’s a casino night, which gives guests a fun, social, and somewhat glamorous evening option. The program also includes world-renowned comedian Michael Rapaport, mentalist Michael Samen, magician Eric Wilzig as well as themed nights, making the evenings varied and memorable. On top of that, live musicians and DJs round out the schedule, allowing guests to dance, reflect, or simply enjoy the performance. This entertainment line-up ensures that Passover nights at PGA are as festive and communal as they are relaxing.

For 2026, the Passover program runs from Wednesday, April 1 to Friday, April 10, with an option to arrive early (pre-night) on March 31. The Deluxe room (392 sq ft) is priced at $7,895 for the nine-night full stay, and adding a pre-night brings it to $8,450. Premium rooms (same size but upgraded views) are $8,075 for the full stay, or $8,630 including the pre-night. Larger suites, like the One-Bedroom with a living room, go up to $12,560 for the nine nights, with a pre-night option for $13,295. These published rates are per person, and additionally, there are supplements for third and fourth guests (adults, teens, children), so families should check the pricing grid carefully when booking.

To book, Kosherica requires a $4,000 deposit per room to secure your reservation. That deposit is non-refundable, so once it’s paid, it cannot be returned. Final payment is due before January 15, 2026, after which all payments become non-refundable. Because of these terms, Kosherica strongly advises purchasing travel insurance, preferably a “Cancel for Any Reason” policy to protect both your room cost and travel. This helps ensure you’re covered in case your plans change unexpectedly.

The resort is conveniently located — just 15 minutes from West Palm Beach Airport (PBI), making flights in and out quite accessible. It’s also about 50 minutes from Fort Lauderdale Airport, giving guests flexibility in choosing their arrival airport. With the whole resort reserved for Kosherica’s Passover guests, you’re experiencing a truly dedicated community environment throughout your stay. The resort’s infrastructure includes high-speed internet, private balconies, and marble bathrooms, designed for both comfort and style. Moreover, the resort management and Kosherica staff emphasize “exceptional customer service,” helping guests from the moment they book through to their final day.
