PGA Riviera Maya Golf Course overview

Ranked in the top 30 courses in Mexico by Top 100 Golf Courses

Riviera Maya Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 championship course that showcases the unique natural features of the Yucatán Peninsula. Fairways wind through untouched jungle corridors, with several holes framed by natural rock formations and cenotes that add both visual drama and strategic interest.

The course design encourages smart shot-making rather than brute force, rewarding accuracy and course management. Elevated tees, generous landing areas, and well-protected greens combine to create a memorable and enjoyable round in a truly distinctive setting.

Signature Holes

The 15th is often regarded as the most memorable. A long par-3 from an elevated tee some 60 feet above the green and played all the way across a lake to a huge green. It’s one of the best sights you’ll see as you stand on the tee box.

The 17th also stands out as a particular highlight, a par-3 with a small, sloping green, protected by two hazardous bunkers. The vast lake to the right ensures there is no margin for error.

Clubhouse & facilities

The modern clubhouse features a pro shop, locker rooms, and a restaurant and bar serving Mexican and international cuisine. It’s the perfect place to relax after your round while taking in views over the surrounding jungle landscape.

Golfers have access to excellent practice facilities, including a driving range, putting green, and short-game area - ideal for warming up before a round or fine-tuning your game during a golf vacation.

Location

Riviera Maya Golf Club is located approximately 60–70 minutes south of Cancun International Airport, making it easily accessible for international travellers. The course is well-positioned for golfers staying in Cancun, Playa del Carmen, or within the Gran Bahía Príncipe resorts.

Our experts say...

"Riviera Maya Golf Club stands out for how naturally it integrates championship golf into the jungle landscape. Robert Trent Jones II has created a layout that’s playable for resort golfers yet strategically engaging, with cenotes and limestone features adding genuine character. It’s one of the most atmospheric rounds in the Riviera Maya."
