Hey guys. Im staying in Playa de Ocotal. Any golf courses close to there? And how are the green fees? Thanks guys.

There is Papagayo Country Club. Maybe the WORST golf course I have ever seen in my life time, yet they charge like a Colombiana. Just because they have country club in the title they think they can charge $100 for a round of golf. I would not play it again unless they paid me a $5k appearance fee and provided a helicopter to take me in (road was so bad took the muffler off my brand new Toyota Prado about 2 years ago).

Four Seasons Golf Club is about an hour or little less drive from Ocotal. Required to be a guest in the hotel, average room rate over $1000 per night and green fees are about $200 for hotel guests. One of the most beautiful golf courses in the entire world!!!!

Reserva Conchal is about hour to hour and a half away, green fees a little less than $250. Robert Trent Jones design, good layout but this time of year it sits really low on the land is Phucking hot!.

Hacienda Panilla, have to be a guest at the new JW Marriott. About 15 minutes further than Conchal. Green fees in the neighborhood of $200. Good greens and decent layout but not all that exciting.

Who pays 200.00 green fees in CR? Just curious Ticos or gringos.

Valle del Sol is the only course I play in CR. It's closest to SJ and a nice enough course to get away for a few hours. You can get a caddie for $10 a round and he does everything for but hit it.

Play golf at home and use your club in CR for other holes.

How much does it cost to play the Iguana at Los Suenos?

Better yet…

Skip CR and go to Pattaya and play world class golf courses for less than $60 including caddie (female) and cart… BJ is $14 extra.

Nicholas’s Laem Chabang, Siam CC Old Course and Plantation course, Nick Faldo’s St. Andrews Thailand and about 15 more courses all within 90 minutes of Pattaya.

Just a thought.

Damn. That's outrageous! Must be inflation!!! If I hit the links with a "willing" female caddie, I'd never make it onto the back 9 !!!
