Vista Vallarta Golf Club - The Weiskopf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Excellent mountain golf
Would play this course again. Very playable. Fast greens! Ask for Grandpa as your caddy. He will save you strokes on the greens.
Vista Vallarta Weiskopf
Thank you Golfnow.com. All aspects were excellent. Even though it is a challenging course, my wife had her best round ever!
Robert & Sofia
We love Weiskopf!
In general, golf is way to expensive in the PV area. Booking through GolfNow makes it a bit more affordable but sure wish ALL the courses would come up with a plan, like a golf package for different courses& price it waaaaaay more reasonably. The courses would be packed & everyone would make more money . . . course, staff, clubhouse etc. Weiskopf is in excellent condition and we love the slopes, layout and absolute beauty of the course. By far our fave!
Jungle golf in Mexico
Really enjoyed my round on this course. It was scenic, fun and challenging. Conditions were excellent. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. I look forward to another round on my next visit to Puerto Vallarta. It was a little challenging to find, but worth the effort.
Weiskopf a delight
Day started on the practice range, chipping green and putting green. Found greens were a bit tricky to read so I decided to take a caddie, Alberto. He was great and read greens extremely well.
Overall the course was in great condition and in great condition. Great day day to d rive through the buetiful layout through the golf course that was cut out off the jungle, with reasonably wide fairways. Still not easy.
The greens were fairly quick and grain to take into account. The thing I really liked was the greens held and could spin the ball. For me shot 75 with a darned double on the 5th hole. All in all, great day and experience.
I'd play this course again if I'm ever in PV.
My go to course in PV
Love this golf course. There are 2 - 18 hole courses and you can play any combination of 9 holes you like if it is crowded which it wasn't. They have trimmed a lot of the jungle making it easier to find a wayward ball. The pro shop let my fiancee' ride for half price. I will keep coming back to this course when in PV.

Great course, greens a little rough. For the price they do not give much like other courses of this level. No water, no hand towel, no gps, no cold towels around the course.
All in all a good course but missing some little touches to make it a great experience
If i paid full price I would be disappointed
Excellent layout and views are awesome.
The staff was exceptional. Fernandina in the pro shop was very accommodating to our needs and Sergio and Julian were fun and friendly as well. Great course and beautiful scenery.
One of the best and most scenic tracks you'll ever play!!!
I played the course while on vacation in PV. One of the best golf courses I've ever played. And I have played a lot not only in the US but in Mexico too.The staff was very nice and overly helpful. Thanks gods of golf for this Gem!
A challenging test of golf
This course is a bit of a sleeper. First 9 holes are very fair if the wind is reasonable. The back 9 is very difficult - lots of barranca carries and most are in to the wind. The course is in excellent condition and was empty when we played. Greens are fast, sand is plentiful and frustration was high. A high handicapper will not enjoy the round. Friendly staff everywhere. Doubt I'll return with my 16 index.
good course but club rentals are ridicules
65 us for club rentals seems a bit steep no balls no tees
Some great holes
Well worth the golf now price of $100 but the regular rate of $209 is too much, typical Mexico.
Vista Vallarta
I played both courses , the golf was exceptional the Nicklaus course being the most forgiving
Very enjoyable
Fun course to play. Conditioning was very good. Lots of great views. Would definitely play it again. $200+ would be a bit much but well worth the $111 I paid using GolfNow.com.
Vista vallarta golf course conditions were excellent. The greens were in superb condition.There were few golfers so the pace was as quick or slower as per your choice. Beautiful weather and spectacular foliage and flowering plants. Very good sand traps of which there were many I found
Not easy but fun
It's a beautiful course to play in. It is a little on the expensive side, but it's a treat and we always like coming back. The staff is friendly.
Good Course, Awful Pace
This is a nice course. The layout through the hills and jungle is well done. Could use some tree removal to open up some great views, and create some long views off the back of the some of the greens.
The problem was the pace of play. They let two fivesomes off in front of a twosome, then us as a foursome. We were at least ten minutes late getting off the first tee, and waited on just about every shot. There was a ranger and he apologized throughout the round. I hope this was just a one-time occurrence, but it was really poor form. If you are wondering why golf is trending downward, look no further than an overpriced, cart only course that takes over five hours to play as the culprit.
Vista Vallarta's Weiskopf course will impress
While the Nicklaus course might be tougher, the Weiskopf course might be more fun.
Neither is so overwhelmingly good that the other should be ignored. I've seen multiple publications rank both among the top 20 courses in Mexico. In situations like this, I say play both on the same day. Make a day of it to enjoy the solid facilities and decide for yourself which one is best for your game.
