You’ve got to check out Riviera Cancun Golf & Resorts! The layout is challenging but so much fun. The views are stunning, and the facilities are top-notch!

Absolutely agree with you, Gina! Riviera Cancun is amazing for both beginners and pros alike. The staff is super friendly too which makes the experience even better.

I personally prefer Moon Spa & Golf Club. It has an incredible layout and the greens are always in superb condition. Can’t beat that view of the Caribbean!

Moon Spa is awesome! Just a heads up, though, the course can get quite busy during peak season. Make sure to book in advance!

I’ve played at Playa Mujeres Golf Club and loved it. The layout is picturesque, and it’s not too crowded. They also have great food at the clubhouse!

I second that! Playa Mujeres has an amazing design. Each hole offers a unique challenge. Plus, I always enjoy my post-round meal!

For those looking for a relaxing experience, I recommend Cancun Country Club. It’s less intense and perfect for a laid-back day of golf with friends. The atmosphere is light and easygoing.

It’s great to hear about all these options! But what would be the best time of year to visit and play? Do courses get busier during the summer?

[@michelle22] Summer can be hot but the courses are usually less crowded then. If you don’t mind the heat, go for it! Just don’t forget the sunscreen!

Does anyone have tips for saving money on green fees? Golfing can be pricey!

Look out for local golf packages! They’re often really good deals and include meals or carts!

Also, keep an eye on discounts for early morning tee times! You can save a lot if you’re willing to wake up early.

And don’t forget to check online discount sites like TeeOff or GolfNow. I’ve scored some awesome deals through those!

I’ve heard some debates about which course is truly the best in Cancun. Is it even possible to pick one? They all seem fabulous!

It is tough, but I think Riviera Cancun has the edge, mostly due to its diversity of holes. Each round feels fresh!

All this talk about golf is making me want to book a trip ASAP! Maybe I should just move to Cancun! Anyone with me? :joy:

I’ve played at Moon Spa & Golf Club, and their clubhouse is fantastic! The dining options are top-notch, offering both local and international cuisine. The pro shop has a great selection of equipment too!

That sounds incredible! Are the rentals available? I often have trouble finding good clubs to rent when traveling.
