Will Never Play Here Again
I may have been spoiled by the other courses in the area (Bahia Beach and Grand Reserve) but this was the worst experience I had golfing my entire trip. Course conditions were terrible! Tee boxes were barely there, greens were non existent. Couldn’t even justify keeping a score. The greens are just an extension of fairways at this point. Do Not Play here. For the amount of Money ($150 ea Player) this is an absolute rip off. Will never play here again! Do yourself the favor and Save your money.
Really nice course!
Nice course and great people. Moved fast and was allowed to play through appropriately! It’s not so difficult.it’s enjoyable.
Wet, but in good condition
The golf course was quite wet, I was still able to enjoy the game. The River Course is very well maintained, its greens in perfect condition with an average speed and without many breaks. I'd say it's easy for putting.
Course condition and pace of play were excellent. My wife's first day playing golf and we had a memorable day. Love it!
Smooth playing fun day
Tee Off made it easy to go and play on a spectacular course. The day was awesome!
Beautiful scenery
The course itself is beatific and for the most part well maintained. The greens are a little inconsistent and slow, but overall a fun course.
Love the River
I am a resident/member of Rio Mar, so play both courses often. But the River is by far my favorite. It pushes up to the base of El Yunque rainforest, and the Mameyes River winds throughout the course. Except for the first few holes, there are no homes on the course, which makes it very secluded and private. Pace of play very good, as all the tourists want to play the Ocean Course, not knowing this is the real gem of the two. Very challenging, yet 3 of the Par 5's are reachable. Some very tough and long Par 4's. The new golf staff has done wonders with both courses, especially post-Maria (insurance helped with many renovations). They are now part of Troon Golf, which I know has high standards, and both courses are living up to it.
Nice layout; fair conditions
I enjoyed the layout, but I would rate the conditions as fair to average The course is maintained ok (maybe as good as it gets considering the environment) - but the greens, while true, were VERY slow. IMO not a great value compared to say a Poppy Ridge in Monterey. On the other hand, if you’re staying at the resort and don’t have many other convenient options it made for a pleasant round of golf.
Excellent course, great time with friends. Highly recommended.
Great-!!!
Excellent conditions of the course. Staff followed new COVID-19 protocols.
Pace of play is 100% better because everyone goes to their ball. Raised cups in green are the new trend but it is difficult to accept.
Recommended-!!!
