Club rental issues

Unfortunately the course was very saturated with water and was cart path only when we played it but my main issue is that their website shows the club rental fee to be $65 per set. We were charged $90 each. We made the cashier aware that their site price was $65 but she would not honor that price. At this point we didn’t have any option but to pay the extortionate rate. I will say the Luis the starter was a great guy, they could use more employees like him.

Rio del Mar River course

Course was in great shape despite a good amount of rain 2 days prior. Enjoyed the layout, greens rolled nice and pace of play was excellent. Id definitely play it again and would recommend it.

Not What we were expecting

We booked the Ocean course designed by the Fazio group, so we expected it would be a well designed course with some ocean views (per the name) and based on the rate charged be in good shape. Well its far from an ocean course as the only hole near the ocean is the par 3 16th and even then you need to walk thru the shrubbery etc. to see the ocean, the other 17 holes are all inland with no water views at all. The layout was OK but not what I expected with being a Fazio design, but in fairness they didn't have alot to work with. Course conditions were OK, tees/fairways were good, most greens were OK but the bunkers were like cement, trying to hit a proper bunker shot was out of the question, with some bunkers 3 to 4 feet deep beside the green it was almost impossible to leave it on the green, only option was to try and pick it out. I am glad we got a good rate from Tee OFF because I would have been some upset if I paid the rack rate for this course. On a somewhat positive note the rental clubs were the latest Srixon woods/irons with Cleveland wedges/putter, plus they provided 6 quality golf balls as well - rental fee was $90.

Rainforest

Disappointing that I wa here for a week, and it rained every day. It is a rainforest. Course was very soggy, and had to play cart path only. Not the golf course fault. It was beautiful.

Good Course that is Fun to Play

Got a great rate from GolfNow so we thought the course was worth it. The course was very wet so the playing conditions were far from perfect. The layout is pretty good with plenty of in play water hazards and bunkers. Overall we were very pleased with the course.

Beautiful and Fin coirsw

We had a wonderful day playing this course! The rain made some of the course very wet and marsh like, and the pace of play was a little slow but neither of these made our time any less enjoyable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We wanted to order some food at the turn and take it away in the cart with us, but most food beyond chips and small snacks were going to take 20min to prepare so we were unable to eat while playing. The breathtaking views at the hole on the ocean were absolutely worth the trip to this course! We even got to see a rainbow over the ocean as we played!

Rain and wet!!

Weather showed no rain in the forecast, but rained the entire time and nothing but standings water. Couldn’t hit any shots and made it not very fun. Hopefully we get our money back.

Pleasant Suprise

After looking at other reviews did not know what to expect. Used golf now app and my discount felt it was a good value compared to other courses around. Teed it up and had only one single who played thru. After that did not see anyone course was ours alone.

Rain Forrest golf

River Course layout is nice . As a intermediate golfer , 219 handicap , I found it very fair for my skillset beautiful green scenery with coconut trees everywhere . Because of the prior days rain . The course was a little slushy outside the fairways .. the greens were slow because of being sanded , due to rain .. they had 2 cart girls traveling the course with refreshments .make sure to indulge , because you do not pass by the clubhouse on the back 9. We booked through golf now app paid $148 w/ cart plus $75 club rentals (pings)..we played on a Monday 11am t teem . As a 2some We got on early 10:15 not many people on the course. Wich made for no rush pace of play . Would recommend ,if you could get a good deal .they also have an ocean course not sure how much $. Hope to play that next time in Puerto Rico .

Great Course Layout but....

I will return but hope that as time goes along they invest more money on agronomy to improve the quality of the grass and trim, as well as improve drainage. Much of the course was damp, but being near a rain forest there might not be much they can do on that front. Eventhough the course was not in primo condition, it was fun and there were some nice views to be had.
