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.

Full price?
I understand the time of year and the courses tend to dry out down here but it should be priced accordingly.
Another major contributing factor to my displeasure was 75% of the bunkers on the coarser under construction.
You honestly would think off-season and course under construction it would be priced accordingly.
Be back
Really enjoyed the round, fairways are a bit dried out, but I loved the roll I got.! Sand traps are under repair, so I know when we return in January everything will be pristine.
The staff is always friendly and very helpful.
Only 9 holes open for play
No mention of course maintenance. Only front 9 is open. Unusually slow play due to everyone playing 9 holes twice. Good golf conditions.
El Tigre - Great
El Tigre is always a challenge and especially with the afternoon breeze. Very enjoyable course
The course is not being maintained. The layout is fabulous and challenging. I suspect is was a jewel is the past. Many of the bunkers had weeds and the been raked in awhile. Some greens had dead patches. They have a goose problem, hundreds, maybe thousands, fouling the water.
Great layout, bad pace of play!
Unfortunately, there is no good management of starting play and on the course to keep the pace. Too many twosome at critics hours
Tough day of golf
Greens could have used a little moisture. Very fast and difficult to get a ball to stay on the greens. Might be a little more forgiving in the morning
Beautiful course
Not the greatest condition and oversold, 45 minute delay when we arrived due to being oversold
