El Tinto Golf Club (formerly known as TPC Cancun) has an environmentally friendly layout that is a popular destination for the PGA Tour. It serves as host to several events throughout the year. When crafting the course, special care was taken to protect the native flora and fauna. As a result El Tinto blends seamlessly into the existing environment. The Nick Price design also utilizes the terrain's natural elevation changes and water features. It's a challenging but fair test with more than 80 strategically placed bunkers and five lakes that come into play throughout. You will encounter some tricky holes but the different sets of tees cater to players of every skill level. El Tinto G.C. is conveniently situated just minutes from all the major area hotels and it's less than a half hour from Playa Del Carmen.

TPC Cancun

Excellent staff was able to play on the hot deal very good price for the course. Greens played well. And had plenty of bunkers on the course.. overall would recommend it if staying in Cancun. November golf is not cheap in area so looking for a hot deal sure helped.

El Tinto - Cancun CC

Course was in great shape.

We booked with Golfnow Hot deals. Arrived a little early for our tee time … we were allowed to tee off … played through one couple, with many thanks … and we went through in 3 hours.

Great course!

It’s a great course if you play from the right tees…. The championship tees stretch out at 7310 yards. Choose wisely and you will have great time. Conditions were pretty solid from tee to green. I will definitely be back when I’m in the area again

Fairway - Greens

Solid layout without any hole standing out above another. Fairways are generous and Greens in perfect shape.

Always a pleasure, but…

This course is beautiful and well designed. The practice area is included and fantastic. Open fairways to reduce lost balls for us average players, but there’s a consistent drawback. The course is always a little wet. If you’re a perfect ball striker, no problem. But for me, I don’t always hit perfectly, so when I take just a bit too much divot on this course, I lose anywhere from 10-40 yards. Divots are always wet and unexpectedly grab your club even though they are shallow.

I’ll definitely go back again, except with this in mind.

In some ways, it’s a challenge that I have to overcome anyway.

A pleasure

I’ve played this course a few times now, and I like it a lot. Long for better golfers, open fairways, well placed bunkers, great course conditions.

Only weird thing was a group of 8 in front of us. Together. On one green. Hitting one at a time.

Cart girl said they were a group. Nothing we could do. But a marshal finally arrived and put a stop to it. The players should have known better and they saw people backing up behind us.

All fixed. 5-1/2 hours for the round due to group of 8.

I’ll definitely go back. Marshal did their job.

Everything was great at the golf course! However the booking said round trip transportation included but we ended up paying for a ride both ways ($65). The course said it was a “GolfNow “ thing and wouldn’t honor it.

Fun course; great layout

Fun course, watch the “hot deals” rate as a huge fee, called a tax is added. My round was an extra 17%. Seems a bit shady on the pricing

Great course

With wide fairways, but long, the course is challenging enough for a high handicapper, without losing a box of balls.

January Saturday morning in Cancun

To be honest I picked this course due to the lower cost than other Cancun golf courses. It’s close to the airport so pretty far from the hotel zone and is about 60 bucks. The best part of the course is the greens and the cheap beer on the course. The course is also very long and the course was very wet even though it hadn’t rained in Cancun in 4 days. I believe it was over watered. Also bring a towel! They don’t have any. For a country club this is not a good sign. There were a few large weeds that needed tending but not to bad. Bunkers could have been raked because most of the players not raking. All in all fair for the price in paradise but could be so much better.
