The Nayarit Blvd Overpass - Golf Carts Only
November 11, 2016
The Jack Nicklaus course first hole is near the driving range and golf academy - a long way away from Tower Five. The course proceeds along a route that parallels the river road to an area in front of Tower Five. It then moves to the area north of the taxi and valet parking area. The road at this point was used by taxis and shuttles that took guests to the outer gate to walk the Marina area. Now, foot traffic is discouraged by hotel management.
The new overpass and private entrance is very obvious from the golf cart road over Boulevard Nayarit. True the cart overpass is a safer way to reach the golf holes on the other side of Boulevard Nayarit, but closing off the exits to foot traffic has expanded guest compaints about being held captive.
There is no question the property is huge when considering both golf courses and the property boundaries. The shear size makes getting on and off the property by foot a challenge. That said, the option should be there. And, it is if one wants to walk to the Sea Garden (Now called Ocean Breeze Hotels.). Not so bad, and very enjoyable! But, not for everyone!!
