Length 7036 yards
Slope 140
Rating 74.2

The One&Only Palmilla Golf Club boasts a 27-hole layout that is divided into three scenic nines: Mountain, Ocean, and Arroyo. Named after the defining features of their landscape, the nines are played in different 18-hole combinations. Jack Nicklaus designed all 27 holes, giving each a unique character but the same level of challenge. The Mountain/Ocean combination starts out with dramatic elevations. Expect some uneven lies and the occasional blind shot. The front nine offers a diverse mix of holes of varying lengths that all feature plenty of water and sand. The fifth hole is a memorable par 4 that plays over not one but two deep canyons to a green fronted by a deep bunker. On the back nine, the Ocean Course, golfers can enjoy a different view of the Sea of Cortez on every

Beautiful course

Beautiful and challenging. Major elevation changes, extreme contours, deep in play bunkers: bring your “A” game and play from appropriate tees. Expect to be worn out by the end of the day but you will remember this place.

Inconsistent greens

Played Arroyo to Mountain this time. Arroyo greens great but Mountain had recently been punched and holes were not well filled, also grass was longer making it difficult to judge speed with their slow and bumpiness compared to Arroyo

Ex favourite

A heads up and/or reduced rate would’ve been appreciated about greens punched very recently. Became clear why we had the course pretty much to ourselves, or at least just few other green fee-ers and no members! Cart girl showed up on 16. This course was always our favourite in Cabo area but definitely dropped a few notches.

Downhill

Are used to like to play this course but there are a lot of weeds and poor grass in the fairways and there are a lot of strange hole layouts almost like they didn’t have enough room for some of the holes. I hadn’t played in a while I wanted to give it a try again but there are better golf courses for similar money

Cabo golf

Nice course. Beautiful surroundings and excellent shape for the course. Driving range was closed so you could only chip and putt. Ocean course was aerated fairways and greens so we okay arroyo and mountains. Fun course no pace of play issues. Bev cart girls came around a ton. Food was good at the turn. Staff was super friendly and helpful when we needed a taxi.

Fun Course in Cabo!

Had a good time playing here, got out ahead of a large group of youngsters and played as a single with my wife riding along. Caught up to a two some so it slowed things down some but overall it was a fun day!! I shot well and enjoyed the course.

Vacation Golf

Played the One and Only. Ocean course was closed due to reconstruction. No all inclusive deal. Practice range was closed even though it was included in the purchase. Staff is very friendly. Course layout is nice but the greens were dry. You’re paying extra because it’s a resort golf course. Got an ok deal but still not worth it in the end imo. Won’t be returning here. Would rather pay a little extra and get all inclusive package elsewhere.
