Palmilla Golf Club - The Ocean/Arroyo Course

The majority of the greens had bare spots and the fairways were brown. For a course with this reputation, hot good.

I’ve been traveling to Cabo since the early 2000’s and knew Palmilla was one of the top or top golf venues. I was excited to play it. I understand they are building a new club house and the check in area is a bit confused. The golf course staff I had interaction with was less than friendly none went out of their way to help, unlike other courses I played this week. The practice area tees were either crabgrass ridden or sparsely grassed. The practice green also had crabgrass. The golf courses I played were Arroyo and Mountain as Ocean was closed. The fairways were mostly brown and most of the greens had varying degrees of barren spots. I cannot in good conscience recommend this golf course currently as there are many others in much better condition for the same price point.

Played mountain and arroyo. Both interesting, but mountain course is beautiful. Even the greens. The mountain round has perfect greens. Arroyo’s round still has various greens in recovery.

Definitely will play it again soon.

The Arroyo/Mountain combo was only available. They're working on the Ocean (9 holes) because next year they're going private. From tee to green, I give it a 5 out of 10. Tee boxes needed new grass and leveling. Every fairway had many burn spots, bunkers were packed sand and the greens had crab grass growing, bald spots or the cut wasn't even. Sorry to say, we're crossing Pamilla off the list.

We booked for later afternoon. Got there early. Checked in and went to the practice range. Then it was off to the course! Loved the complimentary beverages and snacks midway. Such a wonderful day with my family!

They now have All Inclusive food and drinks while you play. You have access to drinks and food every 4th hole. Staff was friendly. Awesome time!!!

I have played here many time before but it has fallen off my go to list. Too many dried out conditions in the fairways and the greens were mostly in horrible conditions. They claim to be going private with the completion of their new clubhouse…….good luck with that 😳

I would absolutely recommend Palmilla to anybody. While the prices are steep (my round was probably the very cheapest round you can possibly get at $128, which I lucked into due to a low-season dusk rate) the course had all-inclusive amenities, including a gorgeous mid-round stand between holes four and five that has everything from popsicles to beer to snacks to frozen margaritas. The staff is incredibly friendly, and more than happy to help you with any questions or needs that you have. The course is beautiful, challenging (but still manageable for a high-handicap golfer), and well-maintained (even in the hot Cabo summer). I would recommend it to anybody who asks!

Played twice in last week. First time with a buddy and flew, no one in front or behind. Second time bit slower playing solo behind some groups with Wife riding along but not bad.

Greens were bumpy in places and not enough sand in some greenside bunkers. Outside of that very happy with course conditions.

Staff was great, super friendly and helpful. Only one comfort station was bit disappointing in first round not knowing to load up. Also during 2nd round was told can load up at clubhouse—which we did.

Fun time, knowing course helped. Would definitely go back—if price is reasonable.

The course was in great condition and the staff very friendly. My son and I made it a 6-hour round as the all inclusive nature of the hut on the course and after 9 made it a perfect way to get an extended rest with unlimited tacos and margaritas. We will definitely come back.

Had a great time at this course, Ocean was closed. The drinks and food are included, which was a plus. Not the best course I have ever played, but I enjoyed and will play again.

The course is a fun resort course. Huge fairways and receptive greens make is fun for all levels of players. Staff could not have been more helpful. The price of rental clubs could have been lower and even come with golf balls like most courses. A lot of construction happening around the course currently. Clubhouse currently under construction. Overall, fun course.

First time at Pamilla golf course and was pleased with entire experience.

Beautiful grounds, tropical plants and flowers everywhere.

Course conditions are good and layout challenging.

Staff was friendly and helpful.

I recommend this course.

My son and I played Palmilla Golf Course and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were on vacation and it is a must play for anyone that Golfs. The course was in fantastic shape. The staff is awesome. And the views were spectacular.

Lots of construction. Staff expected tips at every turn. Arroyo 9 greens in bad shape. For a course that charges an arm and a leg to play, one would expect better conditions
