Moon Spa and Golf Club (Dunes/Jungle)

Overview: Moon Spa and Golf Club ~ Dunes/Jungle is the Dunes/Jungle 18-hole combination in Mexico. Moon Spa and Golf Club ~ Dunes/Jungle uses two of Moon Palace’s three nine-hole loops, where pale sand, tropical vegetation, wetlands and paspalum playing surfaces create the character of the Cancún resort landscape. The exact sequence matters because the facility offers three different 18-hole combinations from the same Dunes, Jungle and Lakes nines. The design credit at Moon Spa and Golf Club ~ Dunes/Jungle goes to Jack Nicklaus. Moon Spa and Golf Club ~ Dunes/Jungle offers an official par-72 resort combination; the published 10,798-yard figure applies to the complete 27-hole facility, so no pair-specific yardage is stored here.

History: Moon Palace opened its Jack Nicklaus Signature golf facility in November 2002 as 27 holes divided into three par-36 nines. This directory row is the Dunes/Jungle combination, so the history describes the facility’s development while the profile keeps the selected routing distinct from Jungle/Lakes and Lakes/Dunes.

Did You Know? The operator identifies Dunes hole 3 as a 229-yard par 3 and Jungle hole 6 as a 337-yard par 4. Those contrasting signature holes show how the nines vary, which is more useful than treating the 27-hole resort as one undifferentiated course.
