Danzante Bay Golf Club joins TPC Network
The TPC Network, owned by the PGA TOUR, announced that TPC Danzante Bay in the Baja region of Mexico has become the fourth international facility in its collection of championship golf courses.
“We welcome TPC Danzante Bay into the PGA TOUR Golf Course Properties portfolio and look forward to growing our new partnership with the developer, the Villa Group,” said Jim Triola, PGA TOUR Golf Course Properties chief operating officer. “As a 35 year-old hospitality brand, the Villa Group places a premium on exceptional experiences we look forward to sharing with TPC Network members and guests.”
Having officially opened just three months ago, TPC Danzante Bay is home to a dramatic, 18-hole Rees Jones design that he says he considers one of his very best. The signature hole is the 175-yard par-3 17th, an oceanside gem that is already being hailed as one of the best in the world. The property also features a spacious practice facility, including a dedicated short game area, as well as a 9-hole putting course inspired by the famed Himalayas putting course in St Andrews, Scotland.
“We’re thrilled to introduce Danzante Bay and Villa del Palmar at The Islands of Loreto to the members of the TPC Network,” said Owen Perry, owner and president of The Villa Group, developer of the property. “It is like no other place. We have been able to create a golf experience that changes as you play, on a golf course that allows you to see landscape and wildlife that you never would have seen before.”
“There are not many golf courses that can offer a setting as beautiful, diverse and dramatic as Danzante Bay,” said course architect Rees Jones. “ This varying landscape allowed the creation of golf holes that are dramatically different from each other and combine to give the player a one-of-a-kind experience. Danzante Bay is destined to become a flagship TPC facility.”
The course is located at Villa del Palmar at The Islands of Loreto, a luxury destination resort on the Sea of Cortez, off the eastern coast of the Baja peninsula overlooking Danzante Island (one of five in the region). Flanked by the rugged Sierra de la Giganta range, Villa del Palmar is the first and only resort to occupy one of the Gulf of California’s last virgin coastlines. The all-suite resort features spacious, beautifully appointed suites with terraces, stunning ocean and mountain views, timeshare options, three restaurants offering gourmet dining, five swimming pools, a 39,000 square-foot Sabila Spa and Wellness Center, two tennis courts, beautiful beaches, a private beachfront Danzante Bungalow and a mild and warm climate year-round.

This is one of my favorite golf courses ever! I take a group of women golfers there on an annual basis because architect Reese Jones designed the course with 5 tee boxes and I love it!

Great, another course that can slap on $200 more for a round because it’s now “TPC”

Most all of them in Cabo/Baja are pricey, however they all include food, drinks, alcohol if thats your thing and range balls. 2 to 3 times a round they have taco stations that are delish. And the conditions are Tour quality.
