The Wyndham Rio Mar Beach Resort - Ocean Course

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

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 course is well manicured and staff is on point

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.

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.

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

The course conditions and layout is very nice... Most of the staff need to improve their people’s skills

The staff was very friendly and happy to have me there at their course.

The course is in decent shape, except the bunkers are bad. The bunkers are being redone so right now they are bad, but when they are completed they will be very nice. The layout is fun and somewhat challenging. There is lots of water hazards. For paying $200 I expected the course to be much nicer and in much better condition, but the course went through a MAJOR hurricane less than 9 months ago, so I didn't expect too much as far as pristine course conditions.
The greens were a little shaggy and bumpy.
The highlight of the course is hole #16 which sits right next to the ocean (hence the name Ocean Course). The scenery and ocean were spectacular. The wind coming off the ocean make the long, par 3 hole very challenging.
I really enjoyed playing the course except for the bunkers. Hole #16 makes the entire round very worth while.
The clubhouse is closed due to renovation. The temporary clubhouse is a portable trailer.

The course played well. It has some great scenery, so don't forget your camera. Overall had a great time playing the course, went on a weekday and wasn't crowded at all. I recommend this course if you get a chance to play there.

I arrived a day early, planned on hitting some balls at the range. Took the hotel shuttle and was informed the range was closed - no staff to run it that day. Next day I arrived at 9am for my 11am tee time - no one greeted me. Wanted to grab some breakfast at the restaurant, then hit balls. Was told the restaurant didn't open until 11, and the range was again closed; this time because of the rain the previous evening. Cart was at least 8 years old - cart path only restriction. Cannot believe they charge almost $200 for this course - I did get it at half price through GolfNow and STILL feel like I paid twice what it was worth. The ONE ocean hole is very pretty and the overall layout is decent. Condition was not what I expected from a high end resort course.
