El Tinto Golf Course

Overview: El Tinto Golf Course is an 18-hole par-72 Nick Price Signature Design at Cancún Country Club. Current course information lists 7,435 yards and describes a private-club experience shaped by the tropical setting around Cancún. The course combines broad fairways, lakes and jungle vegetation with a full championship distance, creating a layout that can look generous from the tee while demanding disciplined approaches. Its identity is more country club than public resort, although nearby hotels use it as a principal golf option for Cancún visitors.

History: El Tinto was developed as the golf centre of Cancún Country Club, a broader private community with club, leisure and sports facilities. Nick Price’s signature design gives the course a clear modern identity, and the current club material continues to present the same 18-hole routing rather than combining it with a separate short course. The reviewed sources confirm the present layout and technical facts but do not provide a reliable full-course opening date, so the profile avoids filling that field from an older promotional reference.

Did You Know? At 7,435 yards, El Tinto is one of the full-length championship tests in the Cancún market, not a short resort layout. The course pairs that scale with lakes and tropical vegetation, so the player must manage distance without losing the lines created by the jungle and water. The signature design is most visible in that balance: the fairways invite a confident tee shot, but the approach strategy changes as the natural hazards come into view.
