This is an update after playing this Jack Nicklaus course today . First of all , the course is in very vert good condition except for a few areas on the fairways where the grass is a bit thin , but everything else is excellent . For Fedogolf members the price is only $75 , for others around the $120 mark. However, the beverage cart comes around frequently with beer, soft drinks and sandwiches all free and on the outside balcony of the proshop ,there are muffins, coffee and fruit also totally free .. I think it is a very good deal .....
There is a large apartment building being built behind the first green and second tee ..much work is going on and it looks as if this will be a goer, where as the apartment block behind the fifth tee is still only 50% finished ..same situation for more than 5 years . The nice apartments to the right of the first tee look as if they are all occupied.
There were about 16 players on the course , for the entire day ,so plenty of tee times for the rest of the summer I imagine .

I should add that people buying the new apartments at the back of the first hole have no rights to play the course.

The golf course is owned by Roberto Chapur, who is the owner of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. The land across from the golf course is owned by someone else. So all of these condos being built have nothing to do with the Hard Rock. The people living there cannot go into the hotel without paying like anyone else. As for golf, they pay what you pay.

My Spanish is very good. So is my Italian, Gaelic, Arabic, and New York. Never took an interest in French though. Chinese has too many different dialects.

Is that the norm, or a rarity?

On some courses with housing estates , there are playing rights ..or you have the right to join the golf club ..In others you simply receive a discount ..I am only talking about the east as I know little about golf in other areas except for Playa Grande .
