Insider verdict
“The first course we've played that feels like a true U.S.-style facility: large-scale infrastructure, a spacious driving range and an oversized pro shop. Built to serve one of Cancún's biggest hotel chains, it is designed for high golfer volume: smooth course flow, well-maintained conditions and solid comfort stations throughout.”

27-hole Jack Nicklaus complex with Jungle, Dunes and Lakes nines; ranked #20 in Mexico by Golf Digest.
