Long known for its beautiul beaches, lush lagoons, canals and palm trees, Ixtapa also has 2 excellent signature golf courses. Both are extremely convenient to Ixtapa’s hotels, shopping areas, beaches, and marina. With the addition of a Robert von Hagge designed course to the area several years ago Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo cemented its reputation as a golfer’s destination. Two excellent but quite different courses…one serving as a wildlife preserve, the other featuring winding inlets big enough for yachts to cruise thru-challenge golfers of all skill levels. Both courses are located within walking distance of major Ixtapa hotels.
Palma Real Golf and Tennis Club is one of Mexico’s finest. This challenging course located across from the Barcelo Hotel has well groomed rolling fairways running through a jungle and coconut plantation setting. The Palma Real is a complete golf resort including pro shop, putting green, driving range, locker room, clubhouse, lit tennis courts, swimming pool, restaurant & bar. The 6898 yard, par 72 course doubles as a wildlife preserve with various species of birds and three large lakes inhabited by crocodiles.
Marina Ixtapa offers a 6793 yard, eighteen hole, par 72 course designed by Robert Von Hagge to challenge golfers of all skill levels. The course combines a network of canals along with 12 bridges and large sand traps, plus water hazards that come into play on 14 holes. Marina Ixtapa Golf Club offers a driving range & putting green, a clubhouse, pro shop, locker facilities, caddy shack, snack bar and lounge, tennis courts, meeting rooms and an on course drink cart.
