Great course that is not too long but you will have a difficult time trying to find a flat spot on the course. even the greens are undulated with several having multiple tiers so you have to plan your approach shots. one example of elevation changes on the course would be the 17th and 18th holes. the 17th is a long par 4 that is first downhill and then your approach shot is uphill to an elevated green. the same for the 18th hole and if you miss short of the green you are looking at least 15 foot high shot to get it onto the greens. I saw lots of wildlife including a crocodile on the par 3, a red coffee snake, and a few iguanas.
if you don't have the game to put tour level spin on your approach shot then I recommend you play short as the greens roll true, fast, and are hard so your ball won't hold the greens.
pace of play was amazing as the course was not crowded. i played in the mornings with a 4 hour round and in the afternoon i had a 3 hour round.
last but not least, I forgot the name of the golf staff but they were awesome!

By mixing the finest environmentally safe technology with the most spectacular scenery, a trilogy of outstanding activities, which combine air and water, was created. At the same time a new kind of adventurer was born; they are called the "aqua-riders". Become one of them, master all three activities and ride with the wind... that is... if you dare!
I am over 70 and found this very energy-filling. It was a great experience. the guys assisting were patient and supportive. Juan was terrific with me every moment.. The support team of Rodrigo who took pictures and Daniel (Dani) and Francisco (Frank) were great. This is a must try. I think I may do the Jet pack today. Unforgettable and my colleaues will not believe the pictures.

We have been to XPlor several times in the last few years with both friends and family.... We recently went with our two teenage kids as well as my Inlaws who are 83 and 79 years young... let me say we were wondering how they would enjoy climbing the stairs and ladders to enjoy the 14 amazing zip lines... but there smiles said it all they all had an awesome time and are looking forward to doing it again...
The park is a ton of fun and riding in the real jeeps is great
The Buffet whether you are there during the day for the 14 zip lines or at night for the 7 zip lines is always fresh and lots to choose from for all taste buds
Have fun ... and book online for discount pricing

A totally awesome conservationist interactive adventure zoo. Touch, hold or feed wild local species.
It's amazing, you can interact with the animals including the crocodiles, the guides are very friendly and you can stay all day, the children have a lot of fun and learn to take care of the environment.

The Five AvenueThe most Important street in Mexico, you can find Shopping, Souvenirs, Jewelry stores,Bars, etc.
Dear travelers! What is the excitement about the Playa Del Carmen and it’s 5th Avenue? It is just a street with tons of stores selling Chinese goods and tons of people walking. If you are from United States or Canada or Europe I don’t see any point of going to see a street in a poor town of Mexico. Just stay in a resort if you can. We ventured to see PDC base on some exciting TA reviews and I wonder now who writes them? The PDC store owners may be? We had enough of it in 20 minutes and went back to our resort.

We did a snorkel tour to the reef thru Lighthouse tours, reviewed separately. The reef is beautiful. Warm crystal clear water and tons of fish, including barracuda, rays, and huge schools of Blue Tangs. Highly recommend snorkeling the reef if you’re planning a trip to the Riviera Maya area.

Private professional Tequila tasting in Playa Del Carmen at the heart of Riviera Maya in Mexico.
We like Tequila but not experts by any stretch. We learned a lot and Adam was so informative and able to adapt to what one already knows or doesn't. It's great to have an unbiased Tequila snob's point of view. I never knew one Tequila could be so different from another! A refreshing break from the crowded Beaches and tours--don't miss out!

Delphinus Puerto Morelos is a habitat where you can interact with beautiful dolphins and learn about environmental education, conservation and welfare of marine mammals. Our new habitat is surrounded by a majestic natural view covering an area of 6 thousand square meters. The design and planning of this Dolphinarium allow dolphins have enough space for optimum development. Within our facilities
We went there on a dolphin swim package. You have many different packages to choose from based on what you would like to do. Our package had a maximum of 10 people but we only had 8. When we arrived, they tried to up-sell us for a 4 person more private package with 30 minutes more with the dolphins at $60 USD per person. We declined. The package we got was great.
You learn a lot about the dolphins beforehand. They have a secure locker facility with cameras so you can lock your items up safely. They also have active cameras to discourage any mischief with your locker.
They tell you to take off all jewelry that might harm the dolphin. You store that in your locker. No cell phones or cameras are allowed.
You also need to take a shower and remove any suntan product that is not eco-friendly since it can harm the dolphin.
The trainers are excellent and your program is well rehearsed. First the dolphin comes over to you in the water. He/She is swimming close to the edge and you simply observe. The dolphin does many tricks right in front of you.
Then, allows you to touch the dolphins back, away from the head and blow hole. We all got plenty of chances to do that.
Next you are instructed about how to ride with the dolphin. You are told how to hold your arm and grab the dorsal fin as the dolphin effortlessly glides past. You then bring your other hand to clasp your other hand. The dolphin is like a small motorboat and pulls you quite quickly about 20 yards in the water.
All the while there are plenty of videographers and photographers taking any conceivable photo.
You do this individually.
Then, we all get back into the water in a loose circle and the instructor throws food strategically and the dolphin swims very close to you and you can touch it gently. Our dolphin was about 10' long and very powerful as well as beautiful.
There are other back and forth things in the program but before you know it, it's time to get out.
Then you get to towel off (no need to bring towels - they are provided).
You are then led to the photo and video viewing area and of course they want to sell you your pictures.
I've read other stories of totally outrageous prices but after a little bargaining, we received all of our photos (47) and 2 video files on a USB drive for less than $200 USD. Of course this is expensive but the shots they take are quite impressive and you get a chance to look at all of them before purchasing.
There are lower cost options as well for a single photo in a frame.
So, yes, it is expensive for photos that are professional but they were quite good and plenty of them.
It also came with a free app so you could easily download all the photos to your phone.
The USB stick worked fine in my PC and in my Mac.
I think it's a very entertaining experience as long as you are OK with parting with some money at the end to preserve your memory.

Lovely sand, clear water shallow enough even for kids to wade in. Plenty of little restaurants for snacks and drinks. They even sweep up the washed up seaweed every morning!

Brilliant place to explore new experience, entrance cost with full package was 500 pesos($ 30 or £20) included ( wet suit, resistant water light, locker and swimming mask plus guide) , my advice it’s great idea take own resistant water camera . Our guide was Abel, his English was very good and knowledge about cenote.
