Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course
Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course
Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course is Mexico’s modern stage for professional golf excellence. Redesigned by Greg Norman and reopened in 2015, it stretches along the Ameca River near Nuevo Vallarta and has become home to the PGA Tour’s Mexico Open. The course blends bold design, lush tropical landscaping, and stunning mountain views to create one of the country’s most dynamic golf environments.
The layout features broad fairways bordered by lagoons, native vegetation, and carefully placed bunkers that demand strategic play. Elevated greens and sweeping vistas of the Sierra Madre make each hole visually compelling, while the routing ensures a smooth rhythm from start to finish. The balance between challenge and beauty makes Vidanta both a professional venue and a resort golfer’s dream. Every shot feels grand yet welcoming, embodying the perfect mix of sport and serenity.
Cypress and Salt curates Vidanta escapes that combine tournament-caliber golf with resort indulgence. Guests enjoy access to Vidanta’s Grand Luxxe and Grand Mayan accommodations, curated dining by world-class chefs, sky lounge evenings above the ocean, and private excursions through Riviera Nayarit. Vidanta Vallarta is golf elevated to spectacle, where luxury and performance converge.
