When playing golf in Puerto Rico, expect an experience as lovely as the people. Sixteen of the Island’s 18 golf courses are open to the public, and the two that are, not allow resort guests to play them. The different playing venues offer a variety of experiences and price points. They're often at resorts and near other Island attractions and activities.
Enjoying golf in Puerto Rico is an invigorating experience, just one of many things that make a trip there so pleasurable. Puerto Ricans are known as Boricuas. It's a unique name honoring their Island heritage, but it's so much more. It is the vibrant spirit, flavor, and rhythm you feel in every part of the Island. It's a state of mind and a way of life embodied by proud, passionate people. When you bask in the warmth of the beaches, taste the love in the food, embrace the call of adventure, you'll find that spirit in yourself, too.
Puerto Rico is a place where the Old World meets with the new on an Island that is small but offers an immense bounty of one-of-a-kind experiences.
The discovery vibe resonates at each golf course throughout the Island – from the northwestern tip to the east coast, with several in northeastern Puerto Rico near the capital San Juan. The Island's golf resorts, accentuated by tropical splendor and remarkable ocean views, are renowned for their first-class service and inspirational amenities.
