We golfed Mexico last year at the Playacar Golf Course (read our review). This course is the opposite of the Playacar. First of all, if you plan to golf this course bring your own golf clubs. The rentals cost 50.00 US each. The grips are worn, torn and the heads on the clubs have been glued back on. Gave us... More

Played the course four times, (pay for 4 get 1 free) in April, and in addition played the nine hole par three course on our last morning.Stiff test particularly off the back tees and struggled to play anywhere near my handicap (13) until we moved to the whites. Ladies off the red fared a little better. Great course, well thought... More

this course is absolutely beautifully manicured perfect shape.Holes are very challenging but the fairways are very receptive and in most holes they give you a large target .Enjoyed playing the course very much>

This is a great course for the money, $70 per round! That’s cheap from where I am from. You would pay double or triple that amount to golf at a Chicago high quality golf course. I brought my own clubs and balls which pays off if you play more than one round. the 1st of three rounds the greens had... More

This course was not in great shape and manicured. Overpriced if you make comparison to equivalent US courses.

Very challenging course. I have played it 3 times and the prices have gone up each year. It's not cheap if your golf is not included but the course is beautiful and hard. The fairways are like hitting off a carpet and the greens are very fast. I would recommend playing early in the morning as its quite a bit... More
