Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta Opens New Norman Signature Golf Course

Mexico's Vidanta Golf has partnered with KemperSports, a golf management company in North America, to create the Norman Signature Golf Course at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta, which celebrated its grand opening on November 14.

Vidanta Golf partnered with internationally-recognized course designer Greg Norman to create the course, becoming the destination's second golf venue. The first course was designed by Jack Nicklaus.

While the course was open over the summer for preview play, November 14 marked the official grand opening. A ribbon cutting ceremony, golf clinic, and Q&A with Greg Norman with guests were part of the events.

Located in Jalisco, the Norman Signature Course is accessed by the world’s longest golf cart suspension bridge from Nayarit spanning over the scenic Ameca River, which the entire course borders. Indigenous trees, grasses, and jungle surround the 18-hole, par-73 course. It was designed to be accommodating for both high and low handicaps.

Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta was named a “Silver Medal Resort” by Golf magazine, and The Nicklaus Design Golf Course at Vidanta Puerto Peñasco was ranked 19th in Golfweek’s annual rankings of best courses in Mexico and the Caribbean.
