Marina Vallarta Golf Club is known for its stunning tropical landscape that is home to an abundance of wildlife. Golfers have the opportunity to play amongst iguanas and alligators while enjoying scenic views of the Bay of Banderas. The course is blessed with a bevy of natural hazards including towering palm trees, lagoons, and waterfalls. Colorful tropical flowers and native vegetation further accent the landscape. In addition to the natural hazards, there are also a few strategically placed bunkers along the greensides. The golf course offers a challenging but fair test that is not overly demanding, which is probably for the best since it is easy to get distracted by the beautiful surroundings. Given its versatility and scenery, Marina Vallarta G.C. has become a popular venue for various golfing events, including the Governor's Cup Pro/Am Tournament.

Excellent challenge and fun to lay

Second game this week - greens just as hard to figure out and course just as challenging.

Very pretty holes, lots of iguanas & crocodiles.

Recommend trying this course - good prices relative to other courses in the area.

Challenging and fun to play

Very nice golf course, in good overall condition and very challenging to play - especially the greens which are grainy and tricky (albeit a bit slow - but they do roll true). The grass , especially in front of the greens is like Velcro so the “ bump and run chipping “ game is very difficult.

Lots of wild life around to look at - birds, iguanas and crocodiles.

Friendly staff everywhere.

Will play again.

Challenging and fun to play

No complaints about anything except the hard to putt greens - grass S much different and grainy than at home.

Will play again.

Marina Golf Puerto Vallarta

Beautiful course, challenging layout for my skill level but liked it a lot. Fourth time golfing here. Very friendly staff, well marshaled. Rate of play was good. Get to see some interesting wildlife different from Canada, including a few crocs. Hole 12 in particular. Don't go looking for your ball in the ponds!!!

Great location - challenging course

If your staying in PV this course is conveniently located in the Marina Challenging layout for most golfers and always keep your eyes out for the many crocodiles

good course, challenging in parts

Much nice course than it looks from the road. Played in the afternoon and the pace was pretty good. Challening without being ridiculous. For courses in the area it was reasonable because I got an afternoon rate. Not sure I would ever pay the morning full rate, just not that into it.

Nice course avoid the sand and crocs

Course is priced accordingly and fairways and greens are in decent shape. Sand traps are bad so stay out of them as there is no consistency in the depth of the “sand” verses the hard surface below. The traps are the only really negative thing about the course.
