Cabo Real Golf Club

Fantastic course with exceptional views and varied scenery with ocean, mountain, desert. Well maintained and clearly staff take pride in the course. Only challenge was sand on greens due to aeration. Food/beverage and course staff friendly and accomodating.

I’ll star my review by saying this is absolutely the most beautiful course I’ve ever played! Excellent views on every tee box, lots of elevation change, beautiful foliage. But unfortunately the good stops here.

Kicking off the bad when we checked in the desk clerk informed us the greens were plugged and sanded “yesterday”. It’s very disappointing to pay so much per player on a course that you basically can’t putt on. Honestly the course should have been closed, or partial refund should have been given. Fairways were in decent shape, but not like the pictures. I can forgive some dry rough, but we didn’t see the green as expected. Lastly, the cart was very nice and premium, but the touted ‘GPS System’ would shut itself off every 5 minutes and wouldn’t even allow us to get through a full hole with any useful information.

Everyone was friendly, I just left mostly dissatisfied with the amount of money I paid, and the experience overall of the course condition. It’s not every day my wife and I get to play golf in Cabo, wish it would have been perfect! Or at least good.

Honestly, we came the first week of September and we’re told most of the trip would be ruined due to hurricanes off the coastlines, rain, etc.

We had a tee time at 11:30a and showed up at the course like crazy people still ready to play.

At first we started out hoping for at least 9 holes. We blew through pretty quick until we got to hole 5. On hole 5 (one of the most beautiful holes I’ve ever seen and goes to the beach) we started catching rain so we hid under the bridge for about 15 mins.

Hole 3 be prepared to take your camera with you to the tee box (if playing gold and black tees).

Hole 5 have your camera/buddy film!

The back 9 has some picturesque holes as well. Honestly one of the most fun rounds of gold despite the weather. Using the GPS on the golf carts there’s several holes you can cut corners on shot wise and then some dead straight

Greens roll good maybe 10/11 for how wet it was. I can only imagine dry/summer. Fairways and tees boxes were prestige as well.

I will definitely be coming back to Cabo real and bringing everyone with me!

Great course…. For the summer months the course was in great condition.
I was disappointed in the cost to rent clubs though, $65usd.

But overall I enjoyed my round greatly.

I always enjoy it here. Friendly service and good layout. Ocean views and good greens to putt on

Nice staff and course conditions. The price of club rentals and refreshments are pretty steep, but hey - it’s a vacation. Callaway Maverik set was $65. Test the driver at the range before teeing it up. They handed me a driver that was tuned down 1deg of loft and compensating for two steps of a draw - I asked them to reset to factory settings and they did - 2 minutes.

Some holes require you to pick your most accurate club off the tee. 18 is ridiculously narrow from whites at 220 and blues at 250 yards. A tip: hit from the tips and leave yourself about 170 over the water (or right) on your approach. Otherwise, best of luck!

Green fees were $115 with tax and fees using GolfNow special rate.

We live on a golf course in northern California and play 2-3 times per week. This was a fun course, not a wide-open and forgiving “resort” course, but I’ll take another crack at this course taking less than driver off the tee on a few holes.

Definitely put this on your list #5 is one of the most photographed holes in the world!

My son is a professional golfer and I am a two handicap. The course was a fantastic value for the money. We realized it is off-season, however… The staff was fantastic, the shrimp tacos were out of this world and the course was in good condition. The tea boxes were a little beat up due to over seating, but the course played fast. I gave it big thumbs up.

Course was in good shape. Beautiful views, carts and rental equipment were in good condition.
We teed off at 1130 and it was a scorcher out there until the back nine which was more in the mountains.
They provide all the cold bottled water you want and cold towels for your neck to cool off.
Definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed Cabo Real. The back 9 has a few challenges but the views make up for it! The staff was very friendly and professional. We enjoyed our game!

Muy seco el campo
Te cobran renta de bastones y no tienen variedad (solo tenían regulares), además de muy viejos
En general de regular a malo

Course was fun. Rented clubs, for sure were not the best. My 5 iron was shorter than all other irons. Course layout is great, good views. Course itself had seen better days. It was very dry, and burnt up. But maybe just due to it being late July.

It is really a nice setup, I just wish someone would have let us know that the greens were recently punched and sanded which definitely took away some of the course attributes and know it would have played totally deferent. Overall, a great course. .

1st time playing this course. Have played Quivira 4/5 times, Dunes course once, Cabo CC once also. This is a great course, and it was only $99 on Golfnow. It’s on the list as a must play now when we come to Cabo.

I have played many great courses in my day and this is by far one of my favorite tracks. Many fun challenging holes with elevated tee boxes and ocean views. Hills for days on a desert course. Excellent experience!! Would play it again in cooler weather.

We had played Cabo San Lucas CC earlier in the week and it was disappointing. But Cabo Real was AWESOME. Great course, great conditions, great layout. Almost all holes have a view of the ocean and a couple of holes are on the ocean. It was a great day!

Trent Jones is an evil genius. Loved this course. The huge views of the ocean and desert vegetation are beautiful.
