Nica Times blows wide open Nicaragua's best kept secret!




















































Iguana Golf Course made the front page & page two yesterday in the Nica Times and what an article it was!

The first golf course to open on the Pacific Coast of Nicaragua officially opened just slightly over two years ago, but unfortunately as a friend once told me, "Ulrik do you realize that this place is Nicaragua's best kept secret!?" Well with a great article from Tim Rodgers the secret is no longer a secret and who could blame him. A round of golf for a member is still only $10! Compared to the other golf courses in the neighboring Guanacaste at over $100 for green fees, I am wondering what am I going to do after tonight's soccer match between Costa Rica & Mexico?!?

The article lifted my spirits so much in fact, I said to my wife I am packing my golf bag tonight and we are headed to Iguana first thing in the morning. From Flamingo Beach, it is an easier drive and far more pleasant trip to Iguana Beach rather than driving from Flamingo to San Jose and from Dagmar's point of view she does not mind the shops on the duty free side of the Nicaraguan border as they have got great perfumes, chocolates and even great deals on liquors. Upon our arrival we will be greeted by the staff with open arms and whisked off to our luxury condo right on the beach.

The newly opened and now renting, Villa Rio Dulce, condominiums is in front of the famous surf break of the Colorado River.... yet another soon to be lost secret in Hacienda Iguana!

Be sure to go out and get your Nica Times & Tico Times paper to read more about the golf course!
