Vidanta Nuevo Nayarit-Vallarta

Golf in the area seems very expensive, even compared with other US resort golf. However like most Norman course good design with room off the tee and a bit more interesting green complexes. Caddie great,condition great. Just the value issue. We played off peak 2pm saw almost no one else and played three and a half hour. For this worth the coin.

The course was in great shape as usual. What makes this course not great is the distance between a set of holes that I just can't remember. The distance was like a 5 min. cart ride over the bridge. Definitely not a course to walk.

Paid for the rounds via golfnow. Go to check-in and have no issue until I go to the cart and the starter mentions I would have to play the front twice as the back took too much punishment from the rains the night before. Why couldn't the cashier tell me this? I went in to ask if it would be possible to play the other course which was cheaper (granted for a later time 2pm vs 11am) since no one was on the course and I mean no one. She wouldn't budge. Most courses that aerate provide you discounted fees why couldn't the accommodate us. As for the forced caddies, first off they should be competent green readers and having only one caddie for the 3 of us is ridiculous.

As caddies are mandatory I had a great round here with Hugo as my caddy. Contact the pro shop in advance and reserve him as he’s great. Definitely saved me a couple strokes and was really great company. As for the course I would say it’s fair. If you’re hitting your driver well it’s for the taking. Definitely going back!

Had a tee time at 10:45am through Golf Now, arrived at the pro shop and was told the golf course was closed until 1pm because it was too wet from the rain overnight and in the morning. I was told I could check in now but if it began to rain again and they had to shut down the course I probably wouldn’t be able to get a refund from golf now because it showed that I checked in... I didnt really have any other choice so I checked in and ate some breakfast at the restaurant right next door to the pro shop (best chilaquiles of my life!) then checked in with the started and was assigned a Caddie, Luis. (FYI the caddie is mandatory and is 400 pesos for a single) Luis drove me to the range where I warmed up for an hour. The range is nothing special, neither is the putting green just a small green that is flat. Very first person on the course, teed off right at 1pm as a solo, finished in 2.5 hours. The course was surprisingly NOT that wet for the amount of rain it received. Not all but some of the bunkers however were unplayable because they were flooded with water. The course is pretty easy, I shot a 78 (and double bogeyed the last hole... smh) when I usually shot around 85. My caddie Luis was great, he would use a range finder and tell you the distance for every shot and was spot on reading the greens! Also saw lots of wildlife, multiple birds, iguanas everywhere, sometimes crossing the fairways, and even a small crocodile. Overall I would recommend this course if you can get a hot deal, in my opinion it would be overpriced to pay the regular rate. Staff at Vidanta we’re all very helpful and friendly, thanks for a great day of golf!

Course was in excellent condition! They had titleist clubs for rent brand new $60 bucks . Would recommend this course.

Beautiful scenery in a pretty enjoyable field. Would 10/10 recommend and hope to be back soon.

Nice course, tee time on time, proshop employes were frienddly. caddie read very well the greens. It was not an easy course, but at the end I enjoiy it.

I live in Puerto Vallarta and play here often. Both courses at Vidanta are always well maintained and in immaculate condition. The staff is amazing...the caddies are always great too.

For some reason GolfNow.com ads a 15% tax that the pro shops don't charge. It sort of makes GolfNow.com not that great of a deal here in PV. If you're visiting, just call the pro shop and they'll hook you up.

Great course which I play a lot. Unfortunately they forgot to mention that they had punched the greens and only the back nine was open. So the hot deal was not a great deal. However Hugo is a great caddie who always goes the extra mile and is great company when playing solo.

I played this course years ago when it was the Mayan Palace course. They have poured a lot of money into it, adding flowers and trees everywhere. They have cleaned up the many lakes which are now pristine with birds, turtles and iguanas in abundance. The fairways are wide and lush. Although the course has its challenges, it is not a difficult course. The women’s tees are far forward and mostly avoid hazards. Our caddie spoke excellent English and was knowledgeable. Be sure to get a golfnow rate as it can be pricey. And enjoy a scenic round!

Course is in excellent condition. Quite challenging from the blue tees given the wind. Although not needed, the mandatory fore caddy’s were good. Get there plenty early for your tee time as it is a long ride to the driving range/ 1st tee.

Enjoyed this course....glad I didn’t pay full price...but a good Mexico course

For early April the course was in great shape. Sand traps lacked sand. The required caddy was very helpful and good a reading the greens. The way the course is set up you need a caddy to find your way to the next hole, ha. Staff is very accommodating, helpful and friendly. All-in-all I really like to play this course.

Not the toughest course around. However play it in the afternoon when the wind comes up and it shows it’s teeth. Playing with caddies really helps. They are all good players and really help on the very quick greens. Drinks cart not always around and very expensive.

From the cart lady to caddy they are not honest

2 Gatorade I cost me 16 us dollars

Cast wanted 50 us when I ask the pro shop she told its 22 dollars be careful
