Can I play Cove Club?

Cove Club is private. The renovated Jack Nicklaus Signature course is currently reserved exclusively for Cove Club members and their guests.

Do not confuse Cove Club with the public/resort-access Cabo del Sol Course. A Four Seasons or Cabo del Sol hotel stay by itself should not be assumed to grant Cove Club access; play follows Cove Club member-and-guest rules.
THE CABO MAGAZINE VIEW

Cove Club is the private side of Cabo del Sol and the modern evolution of the famous Ocean Course, with direct Sea of Cortés interaction and member-only access.

THE COURSE

About Cove Club

Cove Club represents the private evolution of one of Los Cabos’ most recognizable golf settings. The club is rooted in Jack Nicklaus’ original Ocean Course at Cabo del Sol, but its identity today is intentionally member-focused. The routing combines desert terrain with direct Sea of Cortés exposure and several of the coastal visuals that helped establish Cabo as an international golf destination.

The access distinction is crucial: Cove Club should not be confused with the separate Cabo del Sol Course. Golfers researching a vacation round can consider the latter, while Cove Club is better understood as a private-club and residential-community experience.

The current Cove Club scorecard extends to 7,157 yards and par 72 after a phased renovation overseen by Jack Nicklaus. The club remains intentionally separate from the public Cabo del Sol Course and is reserved for members and their guests.
