Puerto Rico Insider: Travel, Food & Lifestyle

Puerto Rico has quietly become a world-class golf destination. With year-round sunshine, oceanfront fairways, and luxury villas nearby, it’s perfect for travelers who want to blend sport with relaxation.

Palmas del Mar (Humacao)

Palmas del Mar offers two championship courses: the Flamboyán Course, designed by Rees Jones, and the Palm Course, designed by Gary Player. Both feature rolling fairways, ocean views, and resort amenities. Staying in a Palmas villa means golf carts at your doorstep and tee times arranged with ease.

Río Mar Country Club (Río Grande)

This club features two courses — one by Tom & George Fazio and another by Greg Norman. With El Yunque as a backdrop and the Atlantic nearby, it’s one of Puerto Rico’s most scenic golf destinations. Villas in Río Grande make for seamless access.

Bahía Beach Resort (Río Grande)

Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., this course is surrounded by lakes, coconut groves, and nature preserves. It’s a tranquil setting for serious golfers.

Dorado Beach Resort & Club (Dorado)

Dorado Beach has three historic courses, including the famed East Course by Robert Trent Jones Sr. It’s a blend of tradition and luxury, with fairways weaving through oceanfront landscapes.

Coco Beach Golf & Country Club (Río Grande)

Nestled near El Yunque rainforest on Puerto Rico’s northeastern coast, Coco Beach Golf & Country Club offers 36 holes of championship golf across four distinct nine-hole layouts — Mountain, Ocean, Lakes, and Palms — all designed by PGA legend Tom Kite. Host of the PGA Tour Puerto Rico Open, the resort pairs world-class golf with a full luxury experience: a rainforest spa, multiple pools, direct beach access, and exceptional dining. A must-play for any serious golfer visiting the island.

Why Villas & Golf Pair Perfectly

After a day on the greens, villas provide private pools, chef-prepared meals, and space for groups to relax and celebrate.

From Palmas to Dorado, Puerto Rico’s mainland golf courses offer unforgettable experiences for travelers seeking both challenge and beauty.
