La Iguana Golf Course sits within the Guanacaste region of northwestern Costa Rica, part of the Los Sueños Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort near the coastal town of Herradura. Designed by Ted Robinson and opened in the late 1990s, the course occupies rolling terrain between the Pacific coastline and the forested hills of the Central American interior. The layout takes its name from the iguanas and other wildlife that inhabit the property, reflecting the course's integration into the tropical landscape. The routing moves through varied elevation changes, with several holes playing along ridgelines that offer views toward the ocean and the surrounding rainforest canopy. Robinson incorporated natural ravines, rock outcroppings, and existing vegetation into the design, and water features appear on multiple holes. The course plays through a mix of open and tree-lined corridors, with fairways bordered by native grasses and tropical flora. The climate and terrain create conditions distinct from traditional North American resort courses, with humidity and seasonal rainfall influencing turf conditions and playability. La Iguana serves primarily as a resort amenity for guests of the Los Sueños property, which also includes a marina and residential development. The course attracts visiting golfers seeking a round in a tropical setting, and its proximity to the Central Pacific coast makes it accessible to travelers staying in the Jacó and Herradura areas. The layout provides a contrast to the more arid conditions found in other parts of Guanacaste, with the coastal microclimate supporting denser vegetation and a lusher playing environment.
