Vidanta Golf Course Riviera Maya (formerly El Manglar Golf Club) is a modern Nicklaus Design located between Cancun and Playa del Carmen in the famous Riviera Maya. This is an 18-hole par 54, with 2,923 yards long, and combines a natural surrounding of jungle with many species of birds and reptiles. Also there are beautiful lakes and white sand tramps.
This is the perfect course to practice your short play but it is not just a “pitch & putt”. In this golf course you will have better chances to hit a “hole in one” and if it happens the golf club will give you a hole in one certificate.
Vidanta also provides other services such as a driving range, putting green and club rental, plus transportation from your hotel to the golf course.
Hole 7 and hole 17 are a real challenge since there are lakes surrounding them and many tramps on the side.
The winds in this region are always something to consider since they are very fast and a disadvantage for the players.
