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.

Chubbs would be proud

Not sure why I saw this course get a bad wrap online. Amazing experience with beautiful views, especially on the Par 3, 4th hole as you can see below. I think some of you guys prefer to shoot in the 100s somewhere that looks the Garden of Eden. If so this fits the bill, I’ll be back. Cheers gentlemen

Great city course

Fun place to play. The course was in good condition but not perfect, with friendly staff and a nice clubhouse. Right next to the beach and ocean on hole 3 for a nice photo op. City course in a nice residential area

Run course to play

Only complaint was that they kept sending out singles and twosomes behind us. We had 3 in our group, and they put a single with us on the first tee. Fortunately, the guy dropped when his buddies showed up. Seems logical they could have paired some of those other groups to smooth out the pace of play and not make us feel rushed to stay ahead of them.
