Hard Rock Golf Club Riviera Maya
Hard Rock Golf Club Riviera Maya
Hard Rock Golf Club Riviera Maya is a celebration of rhythm, color, and energy set within the lush jungle of Playa del Carmen. Designed by Robert von Hagge and opened in 1994, the course blends tropical vibrancy with refined architecture, delivering a round that feels both thrilling and effortlessly enjoyable. Once known as Playacar Golf Club, it has become one of the most recognizable courses in the region, pairing resort comfort with championship pedigree.
The routing winds through tropical forest and natural limestone with fairways that rise and fall in subtle harmony. Small greens and strategic bunkering reward thoughtful play, while wide corridors and creative shot options make it approachable for every level. Iguanas, palms, and bursts of tropical color frame each hole, adding a sense of adventure to the atmosphere. The experience is pure Riviera Maya golf, relaxed yet refined.
Cypress and Salt curates Hard Rock escapes that merge resort-style fun with modern indulgence. Guests enjoy VIP access to Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya, curated culinary experiences, live music events, and spa treatments inspired by rock culture and coastal calm. It is golf with attitude, luxury, and unmistakable Riviera flair.
