Vista Vallarta Golf Club - The Weiskopf Course
About
Vista Vallarta Golf Club offers two championship courses, one designed by Jack Nicklaus and the other by Tom Weiskopf. The Weiskopf Course provides a dramatically different round from the Nicklaus design. The other golf course sits atop the property's highest elevation while this one is situated at the lower west end. As you step onto the course and see the dense jungles that sprawl across deep ravines, you will hardly believe that it is still the same property. It offers the same level of challenge as the Nicklaus Course but some high handicappers prefer this one since there are fewer blind shots and the greens are more receptive, making them not quite as tricky. The 15th is an uphill par 3 that is probably the golf course's most memorable hole. This challenging hole requires a carry past a ravine to multi-tiered green that is surrounded by bunkers on all sides.

Golfing at its finest
Had an amazing time playing on the Weisskopf course on Vista Vallarta. Very few golfers on the course during my round. Course was amazing and challenging. Get out and play it.
Poor management
We bought March 6 for a 2 o'clock teatime they would not allow us to check in until 130 leaving no time for warm up when we arrived at the 1st tee 12 other golfers were waiting without disclosing they had scheduled a shotgun tournament that morning and the course was totally overwhelmed While the courses beautiful the experience was extremely poor for the reason stated
Awesome!!
Great jungle Mountain View’s, water , bunkers!! Play here every time I come to PV
Wonderful!!
Had a great day, Chichi was a great caddie!!
Play here every time in PV, never disappointed, easily top 10 course in Mexico and I have played them all.also very COVID friendly, all are wearing masks etc
Great day and fast pace
With a great twighlight rate of $75 and the course almost empty I played alone in 2 hours! Both courses here are excellent. Well groomed and conditions fairly firm and fast. Good varieties of holes with lots of elevation changes. Too bad the course is not walkable but some big gaps between tee to green. Played the course at about 6500 yards and a good challenge for a single digits player. Back tees should be only for those with some real pop off the tee. Too bad the fees in the morning are so expensive as the course deserves more golfers if i could spend the winter would definitely become a member as the annual cost is pretty fair and with 36 holes you could come here 6-7 days per week and love. The best two courses in PV area
Vista Vallarta-Weiskopf review
I played this course numerous times over the past two months. It is an excellent course with wonderful conditions and surprisingly very limited play. Some of this I'm sure is impacted by the pandemic, but for some reason Pto Vallarta does not seem to be a golf destination. If you like speedy rounds, you will be in heaven here. It is located about 25 mins from most hotel locations in a hilly area. The course uses the terrain to maximum effectiveness, to deliver both challenge and fairness. The greens are the only area of the course that could be improved, with faster speeds. My only negatives are: 1.) for a course charging up to $200+, forcing you to buy drinking water seems a little cheap in my mind, and 2.) do not use your American Express card to pay for your round at any of the VV courses. They charge a 10%+ surcharge (not disclosed) to use these cards due to inflated exchange rates charged when they convert to pesos. American Express cards can only be prosessed in pesos. Use a MasterCard or Visa which can be processed in US dollars with no surcharge.
Beautiful and well groomed course.
The 2 courses at Vista Vallarta are the 2 best in PV.
Well maintained and challenging.
Recommend a caddie
Course was in perfect condition. The greens are challenging and a caddie would be a definite help in reading them. This course is more difficult then the Nicklaus course.
Beautiful Setup !
This is in my top 3 courses now. The setup in the mountains and with the jungle around is amazing !
There are a lot of changes in elevation making the landscape beautiful. Play smart and you will have a lot of fun. A great experience. Will try to play it again before we leave Vallarta !
