This is golf with a Caribbean backdrop. It brings championship design, tropical scenery, and the comfort of a luxury resort together in one memorable round near Cancun.

Located inside the famous Moon Palace resort complex, this 27-hole golf course was designed by Jack Nicklaus and Jack Nicklaus II. Golfers can choose between 3 nine-hole loops: Dunes, Jungle, and Lakes, with 3 possible combinations for an 18-hole round. Each nine is par 36, and the complete 27-hole layout stretches across 10,798 yards.

The fairways wind through native jungle, tropical vegetation, and natural water features. Each hole offers its own challenge, with strategic bunkers, water hazards, and greens that reward a thoughtful approach. You can enjoy the scenery while still having plenty to think about before every shot.

One of the biggest perks is the resort setting. After your round, you’re close to the restaurants, pools, spa, and other amenities that make Moon Palace a popular vacation destination.

Make room for a round of championship golf during your Riviera Maya vacation and enjoy the combination of great golf and a luxury resort experience.
