I’ve played the Norman course at Vidanta twice now and it is the best. They are getting ready for the Mexican Open so lots of work being done. The fairways are wide and the greens are in great shape. Our caddie, Francisco, was great. Very helpful on the greens and well worth the $500 pesos I gave him. I plan to play there as often as possible especially with the $100 or less Golf Now Hot Deal. Highly recommended.

I’ve played both off the Palmetto Hall courses many times and they’re always among my favorites on the Island. With the Hills course shut down for a rebuild Cupp was the only choice. Both are tough with lots of places to get in trouble. Fairways and greens were in good shape although the greens are slow in the summer. I’ll definitely go back.

I’ve played here before and it’s a beautiful course. The Seguaro nine had some disease on the greens but they putted ok. The Tortolita nine was perfect. I arrived early and ended up playing alone. This is a spectacularly beautiful course and very difficult. The staff is great. I would give it 5 stars but I think it’s a little pricey even by upscale Tucson standards. I’ll definitely go back but only at “Hot Deal” rates.

I have played here many times when in Tucson and have enjoyed the course. It was very busy this time and tee times were delayed. The started disappeared 20 minutes before our tee time so, with no one on the tee, we just went ahead and teed off. Pace of play was slow - took 4 1/2 hours to play. Course conditions were fair- traps had little sand and the fairways were very thin. Greens were ok. Overall, it was just average but ok when we took into account what we paid.

I had read terrible reviews about this course but they were wrong. I’ve played lots of courses in the PV area but this was the nicest. We had a $95 Hot Deal which made it very reasonable compared to other courses in the area. They are preparing the course for a professional tournament next month and the conditions were perfect. A few traps were roped off but most had fluffy new sand and were great. The greens were in great shape also. To top it off we had one of the best caddies ever. All in all it was a wonderful day.

I have not played here for a few years. The layout is very nice but we played the back nine in 35 mph winds which made it tough. My only criticism is that the greens were pretty dried out and could use some watering. Pace of play was excellent and the price was good for the Palm Springs area. I'll go back.

I have considered playing Dove Mountain on past trips to Tucson but couldn't justify the $150+ greens fees. This year there were daily Golf Now specials for $80-90 so I took advantage of them and played it twice. It is spectacular. The fairways are wide but there are numerous traps that require strategy off the tee. The greens are large and very undulating which lead to some challenging reads. The gorgeous views of the mountains were spectacular. A very enjoyable day - I'll definitely return next year.

First time on this side. I played Canada 18 earlier this week and like it better. It's pretty tight but fair. Greens are in good shape. As with most courses here in Tucson, some of the views are breathtaking with the mountains and elevation changes. I would definitely go back. $50 with tax Hot Deal was great.

I haven’t been to this course for several years. What a change! Nice new clubhouse, driving range and putting green. Greens were fast and rolled great. Wide open fairways in great condition. Great Hot Deal price on Golf Now. Very few groups- played in 3+ hours. I’ll be back.

My golf buddies have a love hate feeling about this course. Lots of water and it's easy to get in trouble. I've played it twice in the last month - both times with great Golf Now deals (under $20). I really like it. Greens are in good shape. Its challenging from the back tees but fair. I'll go back.

I have played this course several times and I really like the layout. The front nine is tight and tough and the back is much more open. I was concerned when I read reviews about the poor conditions but we didn't find that. The traps do need work but the fairways are in good shape and the greens are very fast and true. There was almost no one there and we zipped around in 3:45. Good deal on Golf Now.

I love Robert Trent Jones courses and this one ranks up there with the best local ones. The fairways are open, the greens are huge with lots of undulations and they rolled great for so early in the year.We had a steady 20-25 mile per hour so it felt a little like playing in Scotland on a links course. Great Golf Now deal made it even better. Definitely play it more this summer.

I played here twice in the last two weeks and was very pleased with the course conditions. The fairways are thin and the greens are a little slow but the overall experience was great. Twilight tee times are $51 US and that is a great price for the courses in the PV area. Really enjoyed it both times.

I played this course several years ago and was anxious to get back. Unfortunately, it appears that they are getting very little play and the conditions were very poor. When I arrived there was only one car in the parking lot. The Pete Dye design could be outstanding but the fairways were thin with lots of brown spots and the grass in the tee boxes was long. Greens were still good - fast and true. It's a good thing I got a $15 Hot Deal or I would have been very disappointed. Not sure I would go back unless they improve the conditions.

Played this course several times and always enjoy it. The Palm course is in great shape, with lots of rolling fairways and undulations on the greens. Got off on time - the starter was great. Only complaint is the very slow pace of play - 4:40 to get around and we waited on most holes. No ranger to speed things up. In spite of the slow play, I'd go back. Many holes are breathtaking with the mountains as a backdrop.

I haven't played here for several years. This is a nice layout that requires precision on some of the narrow holes and is pretty long even from the white tees. Greens are okay but didn't hold very well.

Great Golf Now price and I'd go back.

I hadn't played at Carriage Greens in several years and was pleasantly surprised by the condition of the course. The greens rolled and held well. Some of the holes seem a little unfair as they are very tight or have sharp doglegs but, all in all, it was a fun afternoon and I will definitely go back.

I have played Tamarack several times and always have problems with the water. But, the course is in great shape and a real challenge from the back tees. There was no one there yesterday so I played in 3 hours. Course is in very good shape.

This was my first time at The Highlands but it won't be my last. The course is tough but fair if you play from the correct tees. It is in wonderful condition and the greens are fast for a public course. The staff and overall amenities made it feel like a private club. Plus, we got a great "Hot Deals" price. Can't wait to go back.

I play Carillon a lot and found a great deal on "Hot Deals." Tough winter so the greens were very thin but I always enjoy this course. Very forgiving,
