Solmar Golf Links is on the Pacific side of Cabo San Lucas, about 15 minutes from town, next to the Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes resort. Greg Norman designed it as a par 72 of 7,260 yards through sand dunes and desert, and Solmar says the ocean can be seen from every hole. Golfweek ranked it 16th among courses in Mexico and the Caribbean. It is open to outside golfers through Solmar’s tee-time site, and the hotel group sells stay-and-play packages too.
Solmar Golf Links green fees and tee times.
Tee times are sold on Solmar’s golf booking site, and stay-and-play packages with instant confirmation are booked through the same site. You can also call the golf concierge on +52 624 689 0051 or +52 624 689 0052, or email golfsales@solmar.com, which also handles groups. Solmar does not publish a current rate table; it says prices vary by date, tee time and package. The latest fact sheet on its website still lists 2024–25 rates, from US$195 for summer twilight to US$395 for a winter morning, including a shared GPS cart, snacks and drinks at on-course stations, and taxes. Ask for this season’s price when you book. On that sheet, morning tee times from 7am to 10:50am cost most, early twilight ran from 11am to 12:50pm, and twilight started at 1pm.
The round, in perspective.
Norman worked with the natural dunes rather than against them, so many fairways run between banks of sand. Golfbreaks describes revetted pot bunkers and undulating greens in a links style. The best-known hole is a 191-yard par 3 to an island green; the only bail-out is a sandy area of cactus to the right. Solmar’s fact sheet notes the course’s Audubon International certification and its appearance on the cover of LINKS magazine. Golfbreaks says it opened in 2020 as Rancho San Lucas Golf Club, the name of the wider development.

Make the trip work.
Non-golfing riders paid US$69 under those rates and were not allowed in the mornings from November to April, so check before bringing a partner. Changes and cancellations need 48 hours’ notice, and no-shows pay in full. The course is open from 7am to 6pm daily. Rental TaylorMade Stealth sets were listed at US$79. Proper golf attire is required: Bermuda shorts, polo shirts and golf or tennis shoes, with the same rules applied to riders. Arrive in time for the practice ground, which has a large range and a separate short-game area with bunkers and target greens.
Los Cabos International (SJD) is on the far side of the peninsula, so allow about an hour’s drive across San José del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas, then north up the Pacific highway toward Todos Santos. The course is 15 minutes from central Cabo San Lucas. There is no rail; use a hotel transfer or hire car.
Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes Resort Golf & Spa is next to the course and is the obvious base. Solmar’s other hotels in Cabo San Lucas, including Grand Solmar Land’s End on the Pacific beach near the Arch, are in town. The rancho-style clubhouse sits high above the sea, with a putting green overlooking the course and a restaurant and bar for after the round. Golfbreaks notes it is a popular spot for whale-watching in winter. Booking a Solmar hotel also lets you use the stay-and-play packages, which fix tee times when you reserve the room.
Make a trip of it.
Quivira and Diamante are on the same Pacific coast closer to town, though Diamante is private and Quivira is only open to Pueblo Bonito guests and residents; see our guides for how to get on. Cabo del Sol on the Tourist Corridor is the public alternative. From December to April, the clubhouse terrace is a good place to look for migrating humpback whales offshore.
Find your season.
October to May is the main golf season, with dry, sunny days and cooler mornings. Solmar’s own pricing was highest from 1 November to 30 April. Summer brings heat and lower rates, and August to October carries the greatest risk of Pacific hurricanes.
Yes. Solmar sells tee times to outside golfers on its golf booking site and through its golf concierge. Guests at Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes and other Solmar hotels can also book stay-and-play packages.
How much does it cost to play Solmar Golf Links?
