Nice course, better arrive early

Course is nice, beautiful, upkeep Is great. PGA tour was here 3 weeks ago. Caddy was great but I wasn't expecting.a Required caddy so make sure you have some extra dinero. You better arrive early because it takes a lot longer to get there than you think. The course is right behind the airport but the way in winds all over the place and then after check-in you get your cart and caddy (like I said, a surprise) then you wind around again all over the place to get back to the course, probably at least a mile. I think the pro shop is closed. I always try to arrive 45 minutes early and that didn't happen with all the winding around so we didn't get to hit balls. This might all go away whenever the pro shop situation gets fixed, I can't believe it would be permanently like it is now. March of '24.

Enjoyed the course

Very structured experience, starting with security,then waiting for a tram and a long ride to the pro shop,then waiting in a que to check in, 5 registers but 1 or 2 open. Then outside to wait for help to the driving range,10 minutes,picked up my $65 rental clubs, off to the range,and hit 20 balls, then was paired with 2 guys and a caddie (Raul),good experienced caddie. Course was in very good condition, especially 2 days after the PGA Mexico Open. Just not a country club like experience (oh we also need a wristband).

Disappointing day

When we arrived there were no caddies or carts. We were

Driven to the range to wait for our cart, the driver expected a tip for this. We started the game without a caddy, and he joined us along the way. At the end we asked the caddy where to get a beer (20 year employee) and he stated there was nowhere to get a drink. We asked i side the clubhouse and were told that maybe we could flag down a cart girl. The starter then told us that if we walk around back of the building, there is a lovely pool bar. Talk about misinformed staff.

Mexican vacation golf

Course was in great shape and would highly recommend for all levels of golfer. Greens were very good and putted true and quick. Fairways and tees were also excellent. Required caddie Louis was very helpful and provided good advice. Pace was a little slow but course and weather were so nice it wasn’t a big negative. Will definitely play again and highly recommend.

Vidanta Norman must play

Course was in great shape and very nice layout. Mexican Open was a week ago so a little left over grandstand but did not interfere with play. Price was very good and caddie Artie was super helpful and made round very enjoyable. Would definitely recommend. Plan on arriving early as a lot of shuttle time between entry, driving range, pro shop and taxi departure. Will definitely play again. Greens and fairways were excellent and rough thick.
