Rating 73.7

Overlooking the Sea of Cortez, the One&Only Palmilla Golf Club offers a stunning 27-hole course designed by Jack Nicklaus. The course is divided into three nines that are named after the defining features of their landscape. They are played in three different 18-hole combination, providing golfers with a different experience on the front and back nines. The Arroyo/Mountain Course has the most dramatic elevation changes of the three golf courses and also some of the best views. The seventh hole on the front nine proves "Arroyo" to be an apt name for the course. This 560-yard hole plays alongside one that is deep and intimidating. The back nine, the Mountain Course, is a diverse layout with holes of varying lengths as well as plenty of sand and water.

This course was worth playing.

The Clubhouse was a bit hard to find, but once there the staff was welcoming and attentive. We played Ocean/Arroya and conditions were perfect on both nines with some awe-inspiring views. Played from the appropriate tee box, it was not overly difficult and my wife found it to be very lady golfer friendly. I booked this as a prepaid hot deal so we played for half the price. What a deal!

Must be consistent driver or you will get killed. To be honest I play gold tees and it is very difficult from this length.

One of my favorites, play mountain/arroyo. Beautiful views

Worth every penny of the $80 green fees via GolfNow

Beautiful course and well maintained. I played the Arroyo course first and it was awesome. The Ocean course had a tougher layout for the first time visitor as there are some targets to be hit to keep the ball in play. I played it in 10 strokes over the front 9 score due to lost balls or ob.
