Aqorama

We enjoyed this course and felt like it was the best of all the ones we played (Iberostar, El Tinto, & Riviera Cancun) with respect to course condition (nice fairways, bunkers, & greens), pace of play, amenities, and staff friendliness. There was a bartender on the course serving mixed drinks, and we enjoyed a delicious sit down lunch at the restaurant after our round. All food & drinks were included with the green fee, which was a nice perk.

However, the above assessment is based on the online pricing we received through Golfnow for $190 per person, which was significantly discounted from the rate of $310 per person our concierge was quoted when she called Moon Palace directly to book. Although we enjoyed the course, we don’t believe it’s worth $310 per person to play. Therefore, we’d highly recommend this course if you are able to get the discounted rate. For the standard $310 rate, we would suggest going elsewhere.

This course was by far the least expensive course in the area with the Hot Deal I purchased on Golfnow. The downside was that transportation from my hotel was not included. The quoted taxi rate was $50 USD one way for a 15 min ride. I opted for Uber instead which was only $25 USD round trip with tip included. Course condition was overall good with some bare areas on the fairways that require attention. Bunkers were really not playable although I did play them. Greens were fast & challenging. And there are mosquitoes biting especially in the shaded areas around the tee box. The best part of the experience was the customer service. All the attendants at the golf course were friendly and very helpful!

We pre-ordered food and they had it ready when we arrived. The dining staff were very friendly and accommodating. Equally amazing were the staff in the pro shop and on course. Just overall friendly service. The maintenance crew were out in full force and their attention to detail is evident in the awesome course conditions. We breezed through the front 9 and the pace slowed a little on the back 9 where it was more challenging. We weren’t too bothered as it gave us time to take pictures and enjoy the spectacular views. Highly recommend playing if you’re in or around Glenwood Springs.

This course has beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and nice greens. The fairways had a lot of interesting undulations and slope but was a bit tattered. The biggest disappointment was the lack of amenities. The restaurant was not open, but we were told the cart person was on course offering drinks & sandwiches. As we stood in the middle of the fairway on hole 1 waiting to hit, the cart person completely bypassed us. After that, we never saw her for the rest of the round. We tried to refill our water bottles but the water station was empty. It wasn’t until after the 14th hole that we were able to find a water station. We were both pretty parched by that time.

Pace of play was also an issue. We got stuck behind a foursome so there was a lot of waiting around.

We got rained out and were able to reschedule for the next day. Nice fairways and beautiful scenery. The greens were recently aerated so they did not play well. Too bad there was not a discount rate to compensate for the condition of the greens.

This is normally a great course, but the greens were recently aerated and were not in playing condition. The condition of the greens made for a frustrating round unfortunately. On the other hand, great staff and despite the rain, the superb drainage system allowed for 90 degree so the pace of play was outstanding.

Challenging with fast greens that are well maintained. Try the BLT- it’s the best!

Unfortunately, the conditions at this course are terrible, and the greens are practically unplayable. On top of that, the tee times are too closely spaced together so that players are stacked on top of each other and there are extended wait times between holes. The staff are really friendly, but unfortunately, that positive doesn’t make-up for all the negatives.

Average course with friendly staff, although experience was tainted by slow pace of play and debris on the course.
