About PGA Riviera Maya
PGA Riviera Maya is an impressive piece of landscape architecture where the Robert Trent Jones II team has managed to create a spectacular synergy between the Mayan jungle, natural lakes, cenotes, and its two golf courses, one with 18 holes and the other with 9 par-3 holes.
These courses are integrated into the Tulum Country Club residential complex, located in the Riviera Maya, 25 km from Tulum. In 2019, it became the first complex to partner with the PGA of America in Latin America, which guarantees the quality of the course maintenance and the services that players will find when visiting PGA Riviera Maya.
