Rating 73.7

Overlooking the Sea of Cortez, the One&Only Palmilla Golf Club offers a stunning 27-hole course designed by Jack Nicklaus. The course is divided into three nines that are named after the defining features of their landscape. They are played in three different 18-hole combination, providing golfers with a different experience on the front and back nines. The Arroyo/Mountain Course has the most dramatic elevation changes of the three golf courses and also some of the best views. The seventh hole on the front nine proves "Arroyo" to be an apt name for the course. This 560-yard hole plays alongside one that is deep and intimidating. The back nine, the Mountain Course, is a diverse layout with holes of varying lengths as well as plenty of sand and water.

Great staff very nice resort course

Very good putting surfaces, as with most resort courses there are holes that are fit into the piece of property but not enough of them to take away from the total enjoyment of the course.

Beautiful Scenery

Staff was great, good pace of play, but fairways were not soft as one would expect loading north of $100 for a round.

Great course, horrible check-in customer service

So many great things about this course. Definate improvements from the condition last year. The comfort stations are beautiful. The course is well maintained and they are continuting to make improvements. Currently hole 18. The bag drop staff, fabulous. The cart staff, fabulous. The starter, fabulous. With all of the superior staff interaction I will taken back by the most horrendous customer service from the check in gal. Rude. Did not smile. No explaination of the amenities of the course. No mention that the comfort station food and drinks were included with the round. No offer of hitting balls at the range. No plesantries whatsoever. Ridiculious. We booked thru golf now and had an issue with an injured player. We asked to speak to a manager and she refused to get him so we could possibly work through our situation. We were FORCED to pay for a player that did not play (even though we canceled properly with golf now} or she said no one could play and we could leave. What is happening on this course? I asked the cart staff if the manager was on property and they had no clue. Unbelievable that no managment (visable/or on site somewhere) to handle customer service issues. Apparantly that is left to a 20 something year old front desk gal calling the shots and deciding who is worthy for her to seek out management even after a GUEST request. So many options in Cabo for golf, its truly a shame one person can leave such bad impression and overshawdow what is supposed to be an upper end course experiance.

Arroyo and Ocean Courses

I played the Arroyo course first, which is a great warm up to the Ocean course. Both courses have beautiful views and a fun layout. The Ocean course has even more beautiful Ocean views and challenging holes. This is a create property and fairly good value if you play the afternoon rate. All tee times include comfort stations with food, snacks and drinks!

Pristine Views - Great Golf

Course was beautiful - played Mountains/Arroyo - very challenging to say the least with desert style. Staff was incredible and food/drink included in price. Will go back to play Ocean course as well.

Value is not there

Too expensive for the experience

Construction everywhere really detracts from course. Driving range no grass to hit off.

The whole course has the feeling of just thrown together
