Who's Played the Quivera Course (Cabo San Lucas)

[rehmwa]

So we're going to Cabo in February.  This is the resort course (Nicklaus design, on the cliffs - looks beautiful).

Of course the resort is reasonable, but EVERYTHING else is a huge upcharge and overpriced.

as is this course (between $200 and $350 per person) - I'd like some feedback on whether this one is worth it, what to watch out for, after the huge greens fees do they require a caddy, cart, tips, etc etc etc ad nauseum.

Of course the website and the schedulers are not forthcoming on this, rather it's a hard sell from the first contact until hangup

 

 

or, perhaps - alternate courses that might not be so expensive

I know you are looking for a helpful answer and mine isn't really that, sorry. But maybe you can try it. I would go down to Mexico quite frequently after graduating college. Sort of a continuation of college partying. Cabo golf was ridiculously expensive. Especially for a kid fresh out of school. But my friend was one of those people who doesn't pay full price for anything. So we pull into the parking lot and a couple of guys pull up to load our bags and my friend says how much if we pay you cash and start on the 2nd hole (out of the way of the pro shop). The official green fee was $200 and they offered $100. My friend negotiated down to $80 in USD and out they took us to the 2nd hole. The proshop was given part of the cash to look the other way and everyone got what they wanted. 

I have no idea if this would work nowadays but might be something to consider.

Not sure if you have gone or not, but Quivera is LEGIT.  It was super windy when we went, but it is spectacular.  One of those courses with multiple holes that you will never forget.

I hated having to deal w all the issues of staying at that resort etc, but am very happy our group played that course.

I’d love to hear what you decided and what you thought.

I don't remember the name (it was in 2008), so I could be talking about a different course than the one you are asking about, but it was a Nicklaus design in Cabo San Lucas, perhaps Cabo del Sol?

It was around $300 a round then, with cart included, and a towel in the cart that you could take along as a souvenir.  A very nice course with many holes on the ocean. I was a much worse golfer than than now, but I have fond memories of that course.
