Well after playing another local course and being very disappointed ( TPC Cancun ) I was extremely refreshed to experience Mayakoba, very friendly staff, great service, beautiful setting , and the practice facility, putting green, and course was in excellent condition. I highly recommend playing Mayakoba, it is most likely one of the best courses Mexico has to offer, at least to my knowledge on the Mayan coast.
I have played Moon Palace, Riviera, Playa Car, Riviera Maya Golf Course, TPC Cancun .... to my liking Mayakoba is the best of the bunch

Enjoy

I was disappointed with the condition of the course, the fairways lack grass (very young ), many traps had a visible membrane ( lack of sand ) , and don't be fooled by the beautiful semi island green you see on the drive into the course, that hole is for a future second course..... There was also alot of construction at the time of our visit, the Cancun Country Club is building a huge new clubhouse, it will definitely be majestic when completed. The TPC Cancun to me is not ready or mature enough to request the price demanded. I hope that within the next few years the grass will grow into the fairways and the general condition of the course will improve. I do not recommend TPC Cancun for the price, much better value at other courses ( ex: Riviera )

This was not my first time at Riviera, and once again the staff was great, course condition good, and with the winds made the course very difficult. I strongtly recommend the Riviera vs TPC Cancun.
It is a narrow, challenging course, the only downfall of this course is that it is build in the swamp lands, and is very prone to flooding, therefor if there has been a few days of rain before you play, make sure the course is completely open ( played a few years ago - 3 holes closed to rain damage or flooding )

Good value for the price I paid ( transportation - food and drinks were included )

Enjoy and bring a few extra balls ....
