Vidanta Vallarta Course at Vidanta Nuevo Nayarit-Vallarta

This is a great course for all range of golfers. The staff are great and very helpful,

Course was in great condition, caddy was friendly and could read puts well.
On course facilities was a cart person had hard time tracking her down or a drink at the nineteenth hole couldn’t be found.
But all in all great course and looking forward to playing again when we’re back in march.

A wonderful round with Juan as our caddy - friendly, informative and helpful.
The course is in great shape and challenging for mid range golfer like me.

First time playing the Norman course, a little hesitant, due to upcoming PGA event and getting course ready, only downside is cartpath only and the huge bleacher set up on 18, still an amazing track, greens and tee boxes were pristine, having the mandatory caddie definitely an asset for a first timer. They are also letting the rough grow out, so can be some fluffy lies where you may tend to come under the ball and duff it, all good. From what I could see the other 18 Nayar looked not bad. Allow plenty of time before ur tee time, lots of shuttling between pro shop and practice facility. I also drove there and is limited parking most people I gather get dropped off, give it a go!

The golf course itself is fine but it is a pain for resort offsite people to play. First of all the map that GN gives is wrong so we ended up having to take 25 min to get there instead of the 5 min the GN app showed. Then when you get there it takes a good 45 min before you are actually on the first tee due to the long shuttle ride from the car park to the proshop, another long shuttle to the driving range and another long ride to the first tea, plus waiting for the mandatory caddie to show up. In the end we teed off an hour later than planned and barely made it in before dark. Then when we tried to get an Uber to head home they said Ubers aren’t allowed to pick up on the property. All in all a frustrating overall experience. Won’t be back.

We stayed in the PV hotel zone, first took a half hour taxi arriving the resort check in building, they scanned our bags there. Waiting a shuttle for 10 minutes and another 5 minutes driving to Proshop, the resort is huge, they shuttle picked another two players. We then spent another 10 minutes checking in and meeting our caddie before heading to the driving range. Drove 5 minutes arrive the driving range. practiced 5 minutes on mat. They called us goto first Tee, drove 5 minutes arrived the first Tee. The Vidanta resort is too too big, very easy to lost without a caddie. Course is beautiful, but pace of playing is horrible. The cart path only rule made it even worse, we had to wait on every shot. The group before us quit after 4.5 hours to catch up their flight. We finished the round 5 hours 15 minutes. Spend another 20 minutes to go back to the proshop and took a shuttle back to the Taxi pick up point, lined up another 10 minutes get the taxi. We stuck in the rush hour traffic for 45minutes on the way back to our hotel. Yes, about 8 hours in total.

This course was in great condition as they prepare for the Mexican Open on 2/19. We played the whites (6,200 yards) so it was moderately difficult, further back the more the challenge and the more water comes into play. Great afternoon price. You must have a caddy for an additional $40 for two who rides on the back of your cart. Well worth it. Arrive early as the Vindanta complex is like disneyland and they take you from checkin by cart to the pro shop and then another 10 minutes to get to the tee.

The course was great to play and in great condition. Access into the course is difficult. Leave two hours ahead of tee time if you want to practice at all. Caddie is required. Although the caddie was good he asked my wife before we finished who would be tipping and how much. Had i known that earlier i most likely would have given nothing. That was not appropriate. We played a few days later and this was not an issue with our next caddie.
