Vista Vallarta Golf Club - The Weiskopf Course
About
Vista Vallarta Golf Club offers two championship courses, one designed by Jack Nicklaus and the other by Tom Weiskopf. The Weiskopf Course provides a dramatically different round from the Nicklaus design. The other golf course sits atop the property's highest elevation while this one is situated at the lower west end. As you step onto the course and see the dense jungles that sprawl across deep ravines, you will hardly believe that it is still the same property. It offers the same level of challenge as the Nicklaus Course but some high handicappers prefer this one since there are fewer blind shots and the greens are more receptive, making them not quite as tricky. The 15th is an uphill par 3 that is probably the golf course's most memorable hole. This challenging hole requires a carry past a ravine to multi-tiered green that is surrounded by bunkers on all sides.

Played the Nicklaus course last week and loved it. Caddie master said I should play the Weiskoff 18. Can’t decide which one I like the most. They are both fabulous.
Fun Round
Always a fun round here. The rental clubs cold be better but were ok.
Disappointing
I have played this course 10 times. This is the most disappointing experience I have had. This course(Weiskopf) has a challenging layout but is fair. I am most disappointed in the fact that they had carts of non-players doing donuts in the middle of the fairway and screaming with no Marshall in sight. The sand traps were as firm as the cart paths which was also troubling. This is a fabulous facility, but I will not be back soon.
Great golf club. We play every trip to PV. Typical pace of 3.5 hours. Must play
October Review
We were met by friendly staff. Check in wad easy. Range and putting green were very nice. Course layout was great. Many tee options to choose. Played the round in 3 1/2 hours. Would recommend
Nice challenging course, nice fairways, and tight greens.
Very fun course, does not play easy if you miss the fairways.
Vista only in name
Both Courses are in great shape from tee to green, I played them both the same day, 36 holes in 5 1/2 hours, having a caddy helps a lot, only complain would be that the name of the course is Vista which means "View", but there really is no view of anything, it's just surrounded by vegetation and construction. but everyone that works there, from pro shop, starter, cart girl, caddy, all awesome people, they treat you right and make you feel welcome.
Nice course but below-average value
We had a great round at the Weiskopf course. The pace of play could not have been better, and the course staff was awesome. The only hang up we had is that the cost was not a good value as compared to the adjoining Nicklaus course on the same property. The two courses are of similar quality, but we were able to play the Nicklaus course for about half the price (both rounds during twilight hours). Reasonable minds can disagree on which course is better, but we'd easily choose the Nicklaus course again given the price difference.
The grounds
It was beautiful with lots of different trees and plants!
Great course, great layout
Great course with a great layout. The conditions were very good. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Cut out of the jungle, this course is very interesting and fun to play.
Good Challenge
Beautiful course. Perfect, fast greens. Fairways cut a tad too short for 3 woods, at least the way I play 'em. Bunkers don't measure up to the rest of it, though. No sand in some, only packed dirt. Others were fine, so I guess the word is "inconsistent. " Staff is excellent!
Love to play here again whenever my TaylorMade driver and I are on speaking terms again...
Vista Vallarta
Nice courses. Very friendly staff. Wish the bar didn’t close at 5. Prices for golf very high for Puerto Vallarta standards. Expect 210.00 for morning
