Club de Golf Malanquin
Club de Golf Malanquin
Club de Golf Malanquin is a hidden gem nestled above the city of San Miguel de Allende, offering sweeping views of the Presa Allende reservoir and the surrounding highlands. Established in 1977, this semi-private course is both historic and beautifully maintained, reflecting the charm of one of Mexico’s most beloved colonial towns. Set among rolling hills and flowering landscapes, it offers a relaxed yet elegant experience for travelers who love golf with a sense of place.
The design winds through mature trees and gentle slopes, with elevated tees overlooking panoramic scenery. Water hazards come into play on several holes, especially near the lakefront, while the firm greens and narrow approaches reward strategic play. The ambiance is distinctly local — quiet, warm, and filled with character. Its intimate setting makes it ideal for players seeking connection, conversation, and calm against a backdrop of timeless beauty.
Cypress and Salt curates Malanquin escapes that merge golf and culture in equal measure. Guests enjoy stays in historic boutique hotels within San Miguel, curated dining in candlelit courtyards, private art and architecture tours, and leisure along the lake. Club de Golf Malanquin captures the spirit of the highlands, where golf becomes a meditative extension of Mexico’s artistic soul.
Please note that this course requires a stay at the associated resort or a Cypress and Salt arranged booking for guest access. Our team will handle all tee time reservations and resort coordination to ensure a seamless experience for your group.
