El Tigre Club de Golf
About
Located in Nuevo Vallarta, El Tigre Club de Golf enjoys views that stretch to the western Sierra Madre. The design team of Robert Von Hagge, Mike Smelek, and Rick Baril transformed what used to be a flat piece of land into a lush, tropical paradise. Nine water features were added, which come into play on 12 holes, and the terrain was molded and contoured to provide interesting elevation changes. The golf course's proximity to the ocean means that it is also subject to strong prevailing winds, especially in the early evening. The course finishes with two of its most difficult holes. El Tigre Club de Golf's par-3 17th has plenty of sand and water in play to prepare you for the beastly par-5 finishing hole. This 621-yard monster is practically a par 6 with water down the entire left side and a green surrounded by sand.

Great Course
I had my best round I have ever had. it was hot, windy but fun! So fun, I played it again, the very next day... I highly recommend this course over others in PV.
El Tigre Golf
Phenomenal service, excellent course overall!! Tough with a TON of bunkers but I really enjoyed it!! Definitely coming back
A challenging and beautiful course
Highly recommend this course if in Nuevo or Puerto Vallarta !
Good course layout
Challenging course layout. Average course conditions. Staff can be friendlier for a semi-private course. Fast pace of play. Worth playing while in PV.
Very nice layout

El Tigre Golf Course
Very nice course with great variety. We booked on golf now and it was a good price. Expensive by booking through the course. We enjoyed playing El Tigre on our vacation.
