Course Description
Nestled on 1,500 acres of stunning coastline and magnificent dunes along 1.5 miles of Pacific coastline, Diamante is a paradise of beauty, privacy, luxury and world-class service.Just six short miles from downtown Cabo San Lucas, this master-planned luxury community holds Sunset Hill home sites, Beach Estate home sites, Golf Villas, Casitas home sites, San Marcos condominium homes, Dunes Clubhouse and several Residence Clubs — all integrated into the dramatic Baja landscape and the Top 100 Davis Love III-designed Dunes Course currently ranked #38 in the World. Tiger Woods new championship course El Cardonal at Diamante opened in December of 2014. With dramatic long-range views of the Pacific Ocean, natural arroyos, mature vegetation and native dunes. At Diamante, hand-crafted Hacienda-style architecture hints of another era when hospitality and relaxation were paramount.Add to all of this an extended family of staff who are here to grant your every wish, and it's clear that the Diamante lifestyle is an experience you'll find as unreal as the magnificent property itself.
