Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Puerto Rico Golf & Beach Resort

Excellent course, great time with friends. Highly recommended.

The course is well manicured and staff is on point

The course itself is beatific and for the most part well maintained. The greens are a little inconsistent and slow, but overall a fun course.

Excellent conditions of the course. Staff followed new COVID-19 protocols.

Pace of play is 100% better because everyone goes to their ball. Raised cups in green are the new trend but it is difficult to accept.

Recommended-!!!

Course is getting better after all the rain that PR had been having. 90 degree cart rule required on only a few holes. Green continue to get better

Good staff. 90 degree rule in place due to recent rain. All things considered greens are in reasonably shape. Plan on lift clean and place. Plan on standing water in fairways in some locations

I am a resident/member of Rio Mar, so play both courses often. But the River is by far my favorite. It pushes up to the base of El Yunque rainforest, and the Mameyes River winds throughout the course. Except for the first few holes, there are no homes on the course, which makes it very secluded and private. Pace of play very good, as all the tourists want to play the Ocean Course, not knowing this is the real gem of the two. Very challenging, yet 3 of the Par 5's are reachable. Some very tough and long Par 4's. The new golf staff has done wonders with both courses, especially post-Maria (insurance helped with many renovations). They are now part of Troon Golf, which I know has high standards, and both courses are living up to it.

I enjoyed the layout, but I would rate the conditions as fair to average The course is maintained ok (maybe as good as it gets considering the environment) - but the greens, while true, were VERY slow. IMO not a great value compared to say a Poppy Ridge in Monterey. On the other hand, if you’re staying at the resort and don’t have many other convenient options it made for a pleasant round of golf.

Mountain/Jungle views, beachfront holes, lakes, birds etc. Awesome golfing only 30 minutes from San Juan. Green and sandtrap conditions are excellent although it was raining, very wet and cart path only. Highly recommended.

The ocean course is probably amazing during dry periods, But I wonder if the course is even irrigated properly. There was standing water in many locations and golf carts should not have been allowed to go onto the fairways even though there were many muddy golf tracks across what would have been beautifully maintained fairways.

I’d like to play this course again, but I couldn’t bring myself to pay for it unless I could see drier conditions. The golf ball would literally get plugged into the fairway from a good shot. The funny thing is the greens were fairly dry and rolled true. The tee boxes we also well maintained.

Also the golf carts don’t have GPS, and finding yardage markers is rather difficult. Of course you can use the 150 markers and if you have GPS on your watch or phone, or a rangefinder you’ll be fine..

Hoping this was only an isolated experience.

The golf now rate was fantastic, and the course is in great shape with a very nice layout

Amazing views of El Yunque.

My wife and I enjoyed this course and played in just over 3 hours.

Good conditions throughout.

The course was beautiful, we were the only group on there so the pace of play was excellent. It was a challenging course. I would definitely recommend this course to everyone.

we played the River Course on a Thursday afternoon and we darn near had the place all to ourselves. it took a couple of holes to get used to how to play your shots on this particular species of grass; unlike anything we've played on before. the course was a little bit dry certainly not unreasonable. the course layout was beautiful and the scenery was great throughout the course of our round. the bunkers needed more sand. the saying that was there was much too hard and not fluffy whatsoever. the course was pretty challenging however it was also fairly short so if you hit some good shots, especially off the tee, your approach shots onto the green were very makable. overall, I would give it a good rating and I will definitely come back again.

While there is only one hole along the ocean the ocean course is fair, picturesque and the greens were very true. Enjoyed the different shore birds along the track Also at least 5 large iguanas who seemed as curious as we were. They seemed to be scoring better, however.

The George Fazio-design Ocean Course has at least a couple of things going for it. It's a very playable layout at a terrific resort, and it has views of the Caribbean Sea. The layout and holes won't blow you away, but there's nothing unenjoyable about this experience.

It has also recovered nicely from Hurricane Maria. After undergoing a bunker renovation, it looks better than ever. There's also talk that it may get new greens, which would really elevate the course's status.

And if you're playing here, be sure to have lunch at the new Roots Coastal Kitchen at the Wyndham Rio Mar Resort next door, which has a variety of fresh Caribbean dishes, pizzas, desserts and drinks you won't likely forget.
