Caddies were fantastic and much needed
Good course but very poorly routed. It would be just about impossible to get around the course without a caddie.
I think it is an interesting play as the layout and grass changes fron front to back. The back nine was fun, fast and tight. The front had some great holes but the amount of driving around between some holes is close to ridiculous. Anyways, the caddies made it an enjoyable ride.
Can't stress how much fun I had on course with the caddies, both on this course and the Norman coures. My experience will be different than most because I played solo and had my own caddie but it was blast and I am looking forward to coming back
Excellent value
Lots of fun and generous layout . Cart girl a bit pricey . Friendly staff . Over all good experience
Beautiful Course
Course was in great condition, greens were very fast. Cons - Mandatory Caddy, course layout.
Crazy layout and markings
Drove to usual check in point but told it had changed (without road markings) and was back near the entrance, time wasted. Parked car 10 minute walk away, time wasted. Waited for cart to take us to pro shop, time wasted. Waited for cart to practice range, time wasted. No markings showing how to go from hole to hole. You absolutely must have a caddie. Drive from one of the holes to the next took 7 minutes, time wasted. Finished game, waited for cart to take us back to new checkin point then took 10 minutes to drive there in cart, time wasted. Got out of cart with clubs and walked to parking, 10 minutes, more time wasted. Crazy layout and organization. They need professional help!! Super frustrating and a LOT OF TIME WASTED.
Nice course
Had lots of fun playing these two Vidanta courses. The Nayar course was shorter but challenging. Thoroughly enjoyed playing it. My forecaddy was helpful.
Poor Signage
Finding your way around the course was difficult. The signage was horrible forgetting from #5 to #6. Also, from getting from #8 to #9. The worst part was getting from from front nine to the back nine. We lost 45 minutes of driving around looking to find our way around.
Unfriendly staff
My wife and I have played your course many times and even stayed at your resort. We met at the front gate by a very nice young lady and checking in at the pro shop another very nice young lady!
Unfortunately after that was not a good experience.
After coming outside to get our car neither of the 3 men offered to help us until I told them we were playing the Nayar course.
The 1 guy finally came over and asked which clubs were ours and after telling him which clubs were ours he asked me again when there were only 2 sets sitting being us. I got frustrated and started to load my own when he sprang into action and grabbed my wife’s clubs. After the clubs were loaded my wife nicely asked them where to go and they just shrugged and left us sitting there. A nice upping man driving people somewhere on the resort told us to follow him and took us to our destination. As for the other 3 persons, I’m sure they were way too busy talking to each other to care! We got a very nice caddy by the name of Raul who was a pleasure for our foursome!
We will return and play again but if we are treated like that again I will be directly contacting management!
When we stayed at your resort and played we were treated much better than the second hand citizens you treated us that day as visitors!
I hope you are able to better your staff and operation to treat everybody as equals! This could be construed as discrimination as we were just day users and not paying guests!
Thank You
Nice course
Some crazy travel.between some holes but it was enjoyable to play and worth the money. Blue tees play short but still a challenge.
Fast round
I played with a caddie. Always an enjoyable experience to have one of Vidanta's knowledgeable caddies on the bag. Teed off at 1 p.m. and was done before 4. Love the course. Nayar is a bit easier than the Norman course and as such is a bit of a relief. All in all a great day.
Nayar at Vidanta
The layout. On the front 9 the course does not flow as there are large gaps between holes. The back 9 is good.
The is too many shorter holes!
