Play This Course!

Every year since 2020, my wife and I have made our way to the beautiful shores of Puerto or Nuevo Vallarta. But this year was extra special—it was our first time playing at the stunning Higuera golf course! We kicked off the New Year on a sun-drenched January 1st, 2026, and wow, what an unforgettable experience it was!

From the moment we arrived, the excellent staff welcomed us with open arms, and the course conditions were simply top-notch. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to start the new year than with this incredible round of golf!

Despite some negative reviews we had read, we were reminded of something important: “American arrogance” and a lack of gratitude cloud judgments. Yes, the greens were a tad slow, but we were in awe of their immaculate emerald beauty! Instead of complaining, we embraced the challenge—after all, it was all about adapting and giving our putts a little more oomph! This was a day of joy, appreciation, and celebration, and we can’t wait to come back!

Best greens in PV

We love this course. Always a must play on each visit. Martin the pro is fantastic.

Serigio (cart guy) managed to get us out earlier than our tee time.

They’ve really cut back a lot of the fairway bushes, when really speeds up play for wayward shots. The two snack huts are a nice benefit and touch for golfers.

Enjoyable day a few improvements needed

Overall we had a great day and enjoyed the course. They either need GPS in the carts or need to mark sprinkler heads or put distance markers in the fairways. They have markers but the are on the cart paths and not always visuble

Great course

A very good test for any handicap, with 4 tees from the low 5000 yards to over 7000. Good relief, plenty of elevation changes, and signature holes on the ocean, island greens, and well bunkered holes with sand that plays predictably.

Liked the course a lot except for the greens. The greens are super super slow.

It is worth playing for the $145 price from Golf Now but not worth it for the listed price of around $325. It’s a good test for tee to green but once you reach the green you might as well pick your ball up and estimate how many putts it would take on a normal course. Staff is great and I enjoyed the course layout. It would be nice to have GPS on the carts. I will play it again because it’s super convenient for where we stay and the value is good for this area.

Disappointed

Spent all week trying to decide who was going to golf and where.

When I flipped to answer a text, then back to Golf Now, the site unknowingly flipped back to the same day I was booking.

So when I booked, it booked one day early.

So, of course, we went to check in the next day only to find that we had missed our tee times by a day.

When I showed the employee our booking on Golf Now, she kept saying ‘oh, that’s way too cheap’. Like the hot deal we booked was not permitted.

When I asked management about moving the tee times and payment to that day, he said ‘if you buy a movie ticket and don’t show up, you lose your money’.

When I asked how many people were on the course, they said none. We didn’t take anyone’s tee times! If we had booked and taken tee times, I could see keeping our kineu. But there was no one else on the course.

I lost $1200 for the 8 people I booked and also had to pay another $90 on top of that to get on the course. Disappointed in Higuera.

The golf course has really improved since the first time I played it 5 or six years ago. I’ve played it several times now and I still enjoy it.

Almost great

I really enjoyed the course and the atmosphere. My only complaint is how the starter sent out the groups. He had me play as a single behind a threesome that was behind a twosome that was behind a foursome playing 4 different tee boxes. This created a massive log jam where people waited for every shot. However I would 100% go back because a long day on a beautiful golf course doesn’t suck. Go play it and see what you think.

Used cart

was told that we could buy Zero beer at 3,13 and cart service. No zero beer at either 3 or 13 and did not see the cart for beer service once. Same price s other courses in Nuevo and not even close to the same course condition. Rough was very brown and hard. sand bunkers had poior quality sand in some nice quality in others. No GPS on carts no signage to show layout of each fairway. Yardage signs are not on every fairway inconsistent placement.Cab service home was 30 minute wait and 3 times the price of our trip to arrive at Higuera. Will not return el Tigre, Vista Vallarta are MUCH nicer coures for same cost and cheaper cab ride. Will not recommend

Course was in a very dry conditions. The grass on the greens was long so your putts were very bumpy. Not worth the money for the quality of the course.

not going back.

Little disappointed that your booking quoted $140.00 but the course charged in pesos an amount that amounted to $162.

Lastly your review process is way too long
