Golf Vacations 1-2-3

With a life of its own, golf can bring out the best and worst in people – from proud achievement to intense frustration – but always determination to master the course. The challenge is what makes golfing so much fun, and playing on ‘new’ golf courses even more so. A golf vacation provides this opportunity. Golfers can visit exciting places with family or friends, while playing on different courses.

Still, extra details need coordination when planning a golf vacation, which can be time-consuming. Prearranged vacation packages are a great alternative if they include the option to play at more than one golf course and offer discount tee times at those courses. Without careful vacation planning, the costs of playing golf may be higher than anticipated and preferred tee times may not be available.

Golf Packages

Locating international golf courses and scheduling tee times can be tedious and costly when premium rates are charged for independent coordination. The smart alternative is selecting from personalized golf packages that offer various hotels and courses at lower than premium rates. In Cancun and the Riviera Maya, Mexico, and in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, RedGolf® offers personalized golf packages as affordable and easy as 1-2-3.

Here’s how it works:

1.) Schedule tee times at one or more listed golf courses:

Cancun:

  • Cancun Golf Club at Pok-ta-Pok (Robert Trent Jones, Jr. design)
  • Hilton Cancun Golf Club (Aoki Corporation's Pedro Guereca design)
  • Moon Palace Golf Club (Jack Nicklaus design)
  • Riviera Cancun Golf Club (Jack Nicklaus design)
  • Playa Mujeres Golf Club (Greg Norman design)

Riviera Maya:

  • El Camaleon Golf Club at Mayakoba (Greg Norman design)
  • Playa Paraiso Golf Club at Iberostar (P.B. Dye design)

2.) Book hotel rooms at one of our affiliated hotels or golf resorts – with or without selecting golf courses:

Cancun:

  • Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa (family golf resort)
  • Moon Palace Golf & Spa (family golf resort)

Top 5 Golf Travel Considerations

Golf travel can be great fun, but vacation planning can be time-consuming and costly given the need to research and coordinate hotel rooms and tee times. One of the fastest and most cost-effective methods of planning a golf vacation is through a golf travel expert who can arrange golf packages that include the hotel, golf courses, and sometimes even golf carts and transportation.

Since a golf vacation offers the opportunity to play all year long in warm climates, many travel destinations have recognized their ability to yield excellent golf courses; have contracted with leading golf course designers; and are subsequently increasing in popularity. With 200 golf courses, Mexico is one of them; 16 are in the state of Quintana Roo and more are under way.

Offering some of the finest luxury hotels and championship golf courses in Mexico ― expanding soon to the Caribbean, Central America, and South America ― RedGolf® can help you plan a smart golf vacation.

Top 5 Points to Consider:

1.) Golf Resorts

Look for a variety of prescreened, luxury hotels that provide (or partner with) leading travel golf courses and include a quality spa, fitness center, beach club, kids’ club, and travel tours to accommodate family members and non golfers.

2.) Golf Courses

Select from some of the world’s finest championship golf courses. Designed by famous professional golfers and architects, many are built alongside the rainforest, lagoon, ocean, and white sand beaches of Cancun, Cozumel, and the Riviera Maya.

3.) Course Selection

The frequency that travelers want to play golf will influence the number of golf courses selected and the amount of play time invested. For casual golfers, one or two courses may be sufficient; for serious golfers, a different course each day may be preferred.

4.) Book Tee Times

Booking tee times ahead of schedule is common, at least one week and up to 60 days in advance, depending on the popularity of the golf course. We recommend booking discount tee times early at Riviera Maya and Cancun golf courses.

5.) Plan Flexibility

Golf travel can be expensive, so reduce costs (not quality) by combining golf courses with a luxury hotel of your choice. With lower hotel room rates and discount tee times, planning a golf vacation just became more convenient and affordable.
