Weiskopf Course at Vista Vallarta Golf Club
Weiskopf Course at Vista Vallarta Golf Club
Vista Vallarta Golf Club’s Weiskopf Course is the perfect counterpart to its sister Nicklaus design, offering a lush, open, and flowing experience framed by the natural beauty of Puerto Vallarta’s tropical lowlands. Designed by Tom Weiskopf and opened in 2001, the course moves through gently rolling terrain at lower elevation, creating a striking contrast to the dramatic climbs of the Nicklaus layout above.
Weiskopf’s design philosophy emphasizes playability and rhythm. Fairways are generous yet strategically guarded by water hazards and sculpted bunkers. Subtle doglegs and creative green complexes reward shot shaping and course management. The surrounding vegetation creates an atmosphere of quiet seclusion, while occasional glimpses of the Sierra Madre and Pacific horizon provide moments of pure visual poetry.
Cypress and Salt curates Weiskopf Course escapes that blend relaxed golf with elevated coastal living. Guests enjoy luxury accommodations within Puerto Vallarta’s resort corridor, curated dining experiences by the marina, and private yacht or wellness excursions along Banderas Bay. The Weiskopf Course embodies pure resort elegance, a testament to balance, nature, and effortless enjoyment.
