Case Studies

Cabo del Sol Experience

I played at Cabo del Sol last spring. The green fee was around $400, but it included a cart and practice balls. The views were breathtaking, overlooking the ocean. However, I ended up spending another $50 on lunch at the clubhouse.

San Jose del Cabo Adventure

A more budget-friendly option was San Jose del Cabo. I paid just $150 for my round. The course was well-maintained and had beautiful scenery. I rented clubs for $40 and found that I didn’t need a cart as it was walkable. Total cost? About $200 with lunch included.

Quivira Golf Club Outing

I decided to splurge on a round at Quivira Golf Club recently. The total came to about $350 with the green fee and rental clubs. The layout was challenging yet rewarding, with plenty of elevation changes. It’s a great course if you want a memorable experience despite the higher price tag.
