Acapulco Golf

If golf is part of your Mexico vacation plans, then Acapulco is sure to please with its pro, world-class golf courses. All three of the following clubs offer the service that you would expect from a first class resort city like Acapulco.

• Tres Vidas Country Club –  Designed by acclaimed architect Robert von Hagge, this magnificent 18-hole, par 72 course has 5 holes touching the Pacific Ocean. The golf course plays 7208 yards to the championship tees and is carpeted with Bermuda and appointed with palms and lagoons. Located away from the port, the peaceful lapping of the waves adds a nice touch.  

• Mayan Palace Acapulco (Vidafel) – One of the most impressive courses on the Mexican Pacific, this is located 10 minutes from the airport at the resort of the same name. The 18-hole, par 71 course, surrounded by lush landscapes with swaying palms and tranquil lakes, features complicated greens and several dunes.

• The Fairmont Acapulco Princess – Part of this Acapulco resort icon, the 18-hole golf course was designed by Ted Robinson and offers water hazards on 12 of the holes and narrow fairways lined by coconut palms. Included in Golf Digest's Top 25 Golf Resorts, this "sneaky tough" course plays to just under 6400 yards from the championship tees.
