Mandatory food and drink value

We have played this course many times. We have no problem with the mandatory food and drink fee. What we have a problem with is the decreased value of that option. The beer option is Tecate reg or light. The snacks are now a little bag of maybe 10-15 small pretzels they packaged. We saw the drink cart twice in 18 holes.

Here’s everything you need to know

We decided to play Vidante after seeing the low price on Golf Now ($50 hot deal) compared to all the other resort courses ($300 morning, $160 twilight). You are required to pay an additional $25 once you get there to cover some food and beverage (so our round was $75 total). This is what you get for your extra $25 fee: unlimited beer and mediocre mixed drinks. Unlimited tiny snacks (equivalent to airplane snacks). Free tacos at the turn (delicious). I would say overall worth the extra $25, the cart girl came by every three holes or so, so we were never without drinks.

Course: it’s a 9 hole course (3-par 3s, 5-par 4s, 2-par 5s). You play the 9 holes twice to make 18. We opted to play blacks the first 9 and blues the second 9 to mix it up a little.

Course quality: eh… warm up area is a chipping/putting green and the “driving range” is two tee boxes hitting into a net. The course itself was definitely not good. But it wasn’t bad either. It reminded us of a mediocre city course back home. Grass was ok, greens were ok, views and overall feel were ok. It’s in the middle of town, It was loud with cars driving by, closed in with houses/condos all around. There were 1-2 holes where you could “kinda” see the ocean from afar. And only 1 hole that I would call “beautiful” (#8, par 3 by the pond). Would I pay $75/round for a mediocre city course back home… no.

Staff: the cart girl was amazing!!! pretty much everyone else was rude and seemed stressed and rushed us through (Even the taco guy at the turn) It was busy and all the golfers were standing around trying to figure out what was going on, where to get your cart, your drinks, your food, where to warm up, where to start. And no one was real helpful. On the course we kept getting reminded to pick up the pace of play, but it was so busy and backed up there was no way to do this. So we just drank and mostly ignored them.

Would I golf here again?: No probably not. We chose to golf here because it was over half the price of anywhere else. But $75 is still pricey for a mediocre city course. It didn’t feel like we were in Cabo golfing. I’m glad we saved money, but I wish I got a better afternoon experience of golf.

Overall I left feeling I wish I would have spent another $100 and got a beautiful course with views of the ocean and felt like I was really getting a great Cabo golf experience.

Great value

The course is keen to expose a need for local knowledge. Each hole demands a precise approach and par is a very good score. Knowing where to drive the ball can improve chances of making par.

The course is drier than those demanding 250-350 per round but has a flavour you keep coming back for. Besides where else do you get two chances to get it right on every hole in one round!

Awesome amenities

The course it self is challenging and in pretty good shape, lots of sand areas . Seems to be very reasonable priced compared to other courses in the area! The best part is the staff are very friendly, attentive and always filling up your cooler with drinks and snacks. The tacos were even delicious as part of your golf experience!

Not the best time

Nancy & David, who we were paired up with, were so much fun!

The Manager was there that day, and he was micromanaging all the personnel in excess!

Pushing, pushing , pushing! Gave us NO time to settle in. Beers, drinks, water, & breakfast burritos

were brought out to us.. Never saw the beverage cart until the 11th hole. Asked for three spicy

Margaritas, and they were Absolutely Horrible! She poured four different spices in the cup (Maggi,

Tajin, Worchestire sauce, two different hot sauces), small amount of orange liquor, tequila, lime juice, and ice.

All dumped out before the green!

No place on the course to “relieve” yourself. I’m over 70, and can’t make it two hours!

But, don’t get me wrong… All the staff were extremely friendly! They were just under SO much pressure!

Club Manager needs to back the F off!

Great bang for your buck

Played it a couple times the staff, course and atmosphere is awesome, Cabo has some expensive places to play but I got a hot deal and well worth the price. Has a 25 dollar mandatory fee for food and beverage, had great tacos and all you can drink

Great value

In a location where so much big money controls the vast majoring golf courses, this little gem is basically what we all expect. About $100 per round after tips and convenience fees for drinks on the course and food. . Will stop back many times!

Couldn't figure it out

I tried to book this course on GolfNow & TeeOff but every time I tried to book an "available" tee time I got a message that it was no longer available. Every tee time I tried; I got the same message. I don't have cell service in Cabo so couldn't call. I have emailed but so far no replay.

Fish tacos

Great fish tacos “included “ in the cost. Mandatory $25 food/bar tab. Was able to stop for lunch between 9’s. A lot cheaper than other area courses. A bit brown but still fun for a cheaper course. Friendly staff .

Very good value for a public course

Great staff and amenities. The course layout is great, greens are decent, fairways and rough a little dry and inconsistent. Two suggestions for improvement would be a little more organization at the turn after nine to keep the round moving better and towels on the carts or rental bags to clean clubs. Overall well worth the money.
