Brian,
Sorry to tell you this, but there is absolutely no deals on golf in Cabo. Del sol, is totally corporate now and you will be looking at spending
$200-300. El Dorado is private now as well. Your best bet is either Cabo Real or Palmilla. Both will be around $175-200 to play, even this time of
year..

Thanks guys, but i did check a little more and actually found that cabo del sol desert course has $95.00 after 10:30am!! I can live with that! Also,
cabo real at $135.00. Thanks again, this forum is great.

Brian, FYI, I believe the desert course is getting work done on it. I would ask before you commit to that. they have a no cancelation policy. I would
say Real, might be your better deal..

They said that the ocean course was closed.....I guess I'll just bring the sticks and see what I can work out. At least it's a little easier getting a
better rate in cabo than Maui, where you go to Kapalua, nobody's on the course and they still say "it's $250.00 for the plantation course..play it or
beat it "!! lol
Thanks

i just played the ocean course and it was a little beat up. maybe they are doing some work on it. also, i heard that they were having water problems
at a few of the courses and they fairways went dorment. when I played a couple of weeks ago, they had just gotten a big rain storm, so they came back
a little..
There is cabo country club as well, close to down town, so check that out. personally, I like Palmilla..

There is also the municipal course in San Jose. Since Mayan Resorts took it over, I understand that it is a nice course. Not a golfer but that is
what I have heard.

Judy,
I belive that is a 9 hole course. i played it about 10 years ago and from what I remember it was "muni course". Not as nice as the others mentioned,
but definitely fun to play but a little more casual and not as many views. I guess that is why yo pay more up the road..

Yep 9 holes. Still supposed to be nice with the make over. And I am sure the price is right. There is also a new restaurant there that is supposed
to be great....Thadusa....or something like that

I drove by the San Jose Mayan course several times this last week. It is better than it was but still a little rough in my opinion. It is a 9 hole
muni style course. I think serious golfers will find it boring.
In my opinion, the best (challenging/scenic) courses are Cabo del Sol (ocean course), El Dorado, Palmilla, and Querencia. Other opinions will differ.
I visited the Cabo del Sol courses a week ago. Didn't play but the courses looked to be in pretty good shape to me.
The Sunday buffet at the Cabo del Sol clubhouse is a can't miss. $30 USD buys you all you can eat lobster, scallop ka bobs, peel and eat jumbo
shrimp, grilled fish of the day, cerviche, cioppino, prime rib, all the mexican specialties, too many salads to count, fresh fruits, endless champagne
(Andre), about 12 different deserts, and made to order Haagen Dazs sundies. Two piece jazz combo (los Hermanos Suaves) on the side - Bossa Nova,
black jazz, etc. and oh my gosh! Dick Dale's classic Pipeline in jazz!
$30 is my meal budget for a week in Mexico, but after eating there you won't need to eat for a week!
Take someone special with you and enjoy the ambiance.

Check out Club Campestre in Baja... I know they are offering alot of good deals right now. Especially since the resort just opened up right next to
them. I can get pricing for you if you want.. I just golfed there a few weeks ago.
