Top Tier Course Without Breaking The Bank
Amazing views, awesome course layout, and a chance to order from the cart girl nearly every hole. Would highly recommend making the 4 hour trip from Phoenix to play here at least once. Best views when high tide and can be quite challenging if the winds are going, but the course was in amazing shape and got a great deal through GolfNow.
Great course
Everything was perfect in terms of the condition of the course fairways and greens are excellent
Great seaside course
Great course, never crowded. Jack made this course pretty tough. Many false fronts, undulating greens and bunkers.
mexican golf
a great layout. was lost most of the time. had no idea where to hit it. most of the greens were blind shots. a gps would have been nice.no on course amenities. a real shortcoming. But what a great day
wonderful
Considering I had no idea where I was going it was a great day.Probably one of the best layouts I have played.Bright sun shine the Sea of Cortez. Couldn't have been any better
Beautiful course!
We had a group of 10 people and had a blast. Very challenging course so bring extra balls if you’re not a straight hitter!

Course Management Required
Many hidden features make course knowledge a clear benefit. Obscured tee shots, hidden slopes off the side or back of green- they add to challenge of terrain variation and seaside breeze.
Hidden gen
Great place to have a round and replay holes if needed because the course is not ever busy. Loved the ocean holes.
The course is challenging and can be cruel if the wind is strong.
Loved it.
Beautiful Setting
Typical difficult early Jack Nicklaus design with long carries, contoured fast greens, false fronts, heavily bunkered. Beautiful well maintained layout along the ocean. Very light play. Clubhouse closed. Proshop in the Mayan Palace about a mile away. Four hour drive from Phoenix. No border issues. Heavy security with police and national guard check points along main road. Private security along the beach housing area. 30 minute drive to Puerto Penasco with some sand roads.
Golf Bliss
Incredible golf course, amazing staff, and views that take your breath away.
Charlie, Randy, Humberto, and Sergio are so quick to welcome you and provide great service.
Jesse was on the beverage cart and was super friendly and happy to help.
Angelica and Melissa in the Pro shop were incredibly friendly and always so pleasant.
I can’t wait to come back and see all my friends here siding soon!!⛳️🇲🇽🍻☀️
Vidanta is humbling💪🤣
We had a great time at vidanta Carlos, Yessenia, and the staff were super helpful. The course is immaculate and extremely difficult. But the views are so fantastic you don't care how many balls you lose.
Views are priceless (sometimes)
3rd time playing this course. 1st time that I have not been satisfied. I'll break it down. Check in is cumbersome since a hurricane destroyed the clubhouse that is on-site, and you have to go to the hotel to check in a golf shop. I've done this during a previous visit but figured that for the price to play the clubhouse would be repaired. The Clubhouse was a shining star when I played it the first time in 2019/2020. Once arrived the team at the course could not "find" a LH set of clubs for my playing partner, eventually they did and we were off. We had an 1110am T-time, and were sent off at about 1125. This turned out to be ok because on hole 2 we got backed up with a large group of 20 (5 4somes) that were there to "have a good time". We purchased drinks on hole 2 and played the next 9 holes in about 2.5 hours. We did not see the drink cart for food or drinks again until hole 12 where we decided to try to skip ahead. the last 6 holes were played in another 2.5 hours. Wish the team on the ground would have warned of the very slow conditions as the app only gave us a "Hot Deal" for a discounted price, now I know why it was discounted!! I would call this course directly to find out amount of golf being played that day to ensure that you can enjoy the views and course!
A Piece of Heaven
You won’t be disappointed that’s for sure. Course conditions were excellent. Even got to see some dolphins while playing holes along the ocean. Only thing that could add to the experience would be a functional club house at the course location. The cold towel when dropping off the golf cart was awesome!!
Very nice but very challenging!
Gorgeous course with many challenges. Staff was efficient and extremely helpful at all times. All in all a great experience - will be back!
Slow fairways
Course was damp the ball did not roll in fairways other than that it was perfect
