Included in Golf Digest's Top 25 Golf Resorts, the Princess Course's featured hole is the 18th, a dog-leg par 4 around a large lake, leaving a second shot that appears suspended in space over the unique pyramid structure of the hotel. The course plays to just under 6400 yards from the Championship tees, the challenge is real enough as half of the holes have water hazards on one side, and out of bounds on the other. 'Sneaky tough' is an apt description to the challenge offered by this gem of a course. Turtle Dunes Country Club: Turtle Dunes is an 18-hole championship golf course designed by acclaimed golf architect and craftsman, Tripp Davis. Set amongst ocean sand dunes and surrounded by a lush tropical sanctuary, the brand new course showcases expansive water features and towering parota trees that frame 18 signature holes. The course is operated and managed by Troon Golf, the leading luxury golf management company in the world, and is home to the paramount golf teaching facility in Mexico with the Ochoa Golf Academy. The vision for creating the golf course at Turtle Dunes represents a return to the early game of golf, played along seaside dunes on terrain that flows with constant variety and strategic challenge. Five sets of tees - with boxes ranging from 5,000 to 7,200 yards - allow all golfers to choose their level of play.

El Camaleón is aptly named for its diverse layout and ever-changing landscape, which bends through tropical jungles, dense mangroves and oceanfront stretches of sand with holes bordered by massive limestone canals. The indigenous and environmentally inspirited design aspects are evident from the opening fairway, by an imposing cenote, an ancient underground cavern that was unearthed during the initial stages of course construction. El Camaleón is the only course in the Riviera Maya featuring two holes just steps from the Caribbean Sea. While each hole shines with its own particular magic, it's the par-3s that already are earning the loudest raves. Hole No. 15 will define the El Camaleón experience. At only 160 yards from the back marker the hole plays directly towards the vibrant waters of the Caribbean Sea. The large green sets the stage for a memorable shot as the nearby waves gently soothe the golfer's soul. Don't be fooled, this hole is not to be taken lightly, especially when the tropical winds pick up. No. 7 also plays right to the edge of the Caribbean Sea with the sand and the spray punctuating the breeze. In the distance is one of the world's largest coral reefs and the island of Cozumel. No. 10 is another short hole that is long on memories. The figure eight green is lined with drama. A shot too long or to the right drops deep into the crystal waters of the canal. Another amazing feature of El Camaleón is the resort's one-of-a-kind canal system, where golfers will be able to step from their rooms to a thatch-roofed boat, which will whisk them to the first tee. El Camaleón is located 45 minutes south of Cancun in the heart of the mystic Riviera Maya. In 2006, El Camaleón made history by becoming the first golf course to host an official PGA TOUR event in México and the first official PGA TOUR event ever held outside of the United States or Canada.
