Fuego Maya at La Reunion Golf Resort occupies dramatic terrain in the highlands near Antigua Guatemala, designed by Pete Dye with his son Perry Dye. The course takes its name from the nearby Fuego volcano, one of Central America's most active peaks, which provides a striking backdrop to play. The layout sits at approximately 5,000 feet elevation in the Sacatepequez department, where the volcanic landscape creates natural movement and elevation changes throughout the routing. The Dyes incorporated the region's rugged topography into a design that features characteristic elements of their work, including strategic bunkering, forced carries, and green complexes that reward precision.
The setting offers views across the Panchoy Valley toward Antigua's colonial architecture and the surrounding volcanic chain. The course navigates through coffee plantations and native vegetation typical of Guatemala's central highlands, with barrancas—steep ravines carved by erosion—coming into play on several holes. The climate at this elevation provides year-round playing conditions distinct from lowland tropical courses, with cooler temperatures and afternoon cloud patterns common to the region.
La Reunion operates as a resort community, attracting both international visitors to the Antigua area and golfers from Guatemala City, located roughly an hour away. The facility serves as one of the few championship-length courses in Guatemala, offering a golf experience shaped by both the Dyes' design philosophy and the unique volcanic geography of the Central American highlands.
