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
What water hazard??
Beautiful layout but because of all the rain we’ve had the course was really damp.
WET
The course was very wet this day. Kept it in the fairway for better shots. Green were in great condition and fast.
Nice Course
I had an absolute great time playing this course for my first round while visiting Puerto Vallarta. They recommended a caddie and it made perfect sense because not only was my caddie knowledgeable about the course he was equally knowledgeable about the alligators.! Great fun course
course closed
course was closed due to excessive rain the night before. Standing water on many parts of the course. Poor drainage.
Beautifully Manicured
This course is in great shape, hats off to the grounds keepers. The track itself has loads of characters with semi narrow fairways and good size greens that hold the ball Some greens guarded by water and Crocodiles so enjoy and be safe.
Vacation in PV
Finished my golfing in PV with a round at Marina. beautiful course that is challenging but fair. Nice fairways with a lot of bunkering and water in play on several holes. $99 price tag is somewhat normal for resort area. Will play again if I ever return.
Limit expectations
Not sure how it compares to others but not maintained as I would have expected for the cost. Not horrible layout but not great either. Avg at best abd as long as expectations are not too high, you can have a good time.
Expensive ride along
I paid $60.00 to play which was excellent. However I was charged another $55.00 for my son to ride along.
Course was in great shape and a challenge as always.
Very hot and humid afternoon and unfortunately never saw the drinks cart.
Great even though the greens were being worked. Very interesting layout!
Another great round in Paradise
Had another wonderful round of golf. Will look forward to coming back.
Dry and without Snack Area
The layout is challenging, with dry lakes, well maintained fairways and greens.
There is available drinks cart and staff is very friendly.
Walking distance from Marina hotels within a very safe neighborhood.
Great course
Book a tee time. You won’t regret it. Challenging every time.
Such a challenge
We have played Marina Golf course eight times in the past two weeks and each time we play the course presents a different challenge for us. That’s one reason we keep coming back. At the beginning of our vacation the fairways were not in great shape, but over the course of the two weeks, they have improved a lot. It’s amazing what a little water can do. We are grateful the rates go down substantially at 2:00 so we can afford to play, though it’s very hot at that time of day. We love playing at Marina Golf course, and will continue to return.
