Marina Vallarta Golf Club

About
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.

Beware of the Crocs! Photo submitted by dharvey13 on 07/19/2016
Good golf near airport
Course was tight and played long, greens were in good shape, lots of water with crocodiles chilling around the edges, pins were pretty tucked when I played. Golf here is expensive, was priced average for the area it seems. Had to pay $44 for my wife to ride along with me in a cart I already paid for, pretty lame. Would still probably play again but I preferred the Vista Vallarta course.
Great spot for golf
Course was in good shape. Friendly staff and always welcoming from start to finish. Play this course every time I visit!
New greens at the Marina
I played with two other golfers. We were finished in four hours so the pace was reasonable. The course has new greens on the first ten holes. They were very receptive to shots, maybe a bit firm. I hit several shots to the back of the green that found the water. That's one thing in abundance on this course. Anyway, I had a fun time. I'll be back.
No thanks
Have played this score several times and I keep asking myself why I go back. Proximity is the answer to where we stay in Puerto Vallarta, but this course is in fair shape at best. The greens were furry… Very slow. The layout is more than challenging… And not necessarily fair. Pay $200 per person for a 9 AM teatime… Played the front nine in two hours which was great and that quickly turned into a five hour round with nothing but wait times on every tee on the back nine. The course is Marshalled but obviously they don’t do anything about it. After check-in was asked if I wanted some water and I said yes… That’ll be six dollars please. I just paid you $200 green fee and now you want three dollars for a bottle of water… Come on.
Pay a little more and play at a better course
For the price this course was terrible. Played more like a county municipal course in the states. Fairways were torn up and were weed plagued. The course was backed up all round and the marshal kept pushing us to pick up pace, only to be stuck at the tee box with the group ahead of us. He came by 3 times to tell us to go faster, but there was nothing we could do.
Oh, and the crocodiles are no joke. Huge and numerous, just hanging out in the course next to the water.
I recommend you pay a few more dollars and pick a better course.
Great golf course all around.
We were the first ones to tee off. It was definitely a great experience beautiful golf course. All the greens are well taken care of the views are spectacular. It’s definitely a little pricey, but it’s worth your buck especially when you’re golfing in Mexico oceanside view. I also rented out the clubs brand tailor-made. Definitely going to be be back for another round on my next vacation
Love This Course
Fun golf course. Love the views, love the wildlife!!
Disappointed
Don’t wast your $ on this course. Try other ones with a much better overall experience, Among the five courses we played in PV. This turned out to be the worst one (Higuera #1, Vista #2, Tiger #3, Nayar #4). The course is not long, but the design is tricky. The fairway is narrow and lot of waters. The course needs some TLC. One of the holes was near a waste treatment area and smiles stinky. Lots of bare lands with no grass. I was very disappointed. Will not return to this one.
