As a single the starter let me off early ahead of a bunch of foursomes. Consequently was able to play in under 4 hrs

Very well laid out and picturesque. Greens were quite challenging

Cabo Real

Beautiful course, conditions were superb. Some very scenic holes and forgiving greens. They seem to have been recently aerated so not sure if they were un-ordinarily slow. In any case definitely helped my score. Greens were protected by numerous bunkers so accuracy was key. Only one water hazard on 18 that provided a narrow fairway otherwise most fairways were adequate for mid to high handicap players like myself. Definitely will come back again!

Worthwhile

Greens were aerated a few days prior which explains the Hot Deal. I would not have been happy paying the normal rate. Looking forward to playing it again. Very friendly staff. Nice practice range.

Summer value

I have not played in 8-10 years but I need to put this on my regular list as the course is fun to play with great views of the sea of Cortez. 5th hole goes down to the ocean with great photo opportunity. Course is in summer shape with some brown area but overall in great shape. Couple of extra par 3’s that bring the rating down to 70.4 from blues (6209) but the par 3’s are tough Staff was very nice and driving range was good. I got it through GolfNow so value was incredible for the $ that I paid.

Be prepared to hit it straighter on back. It gets tighter. Nice views all over golf course. GPS in cart is very handy for bunkers and carry.

Excellent Staff and very good course

Reservation made through GolfNow 2 weeks before our vacation to Cabo and that process was seamless. Once our day arrived for golf the staff was probably the nicest group of golf course personnel we've encountered. For context we golf a lot in the greater Scottsdale area were customer service is very good, but I actually put the Cabo Real service a notch above. A few of the Cabo Real guys are from the States so lots to talk about, but most importantly was how helpful everyone was. We were treated extremely well by everyone. The course itself is in very good shape and plenty challenging. It was myself and my wife and we did not get paired with anyone which is our preference, but we met several golfers on the course and at the turn. Everyone was pleasant to talk to. We did not rent clubs (we brought ours) so the only extra expense for us was the tacos at the turn and they were very good. Lots of drinking water provided so no issues there, and we golfed in early August so it was hot and very humid. Overall it was really fun and a great way to spend a day in Cabo. Actually cheaper than a lot of other activities in Cabo, as we found out the hard way. Cabo is not as inexpensive as you might think, so a full day of golf in Cabo really isn't expensive relative to other activities to fill up a day anywhere in Cabo. If we do go back to Cabo it will be for golfing only and for sure we would golf Cabo Real again.
