About Tubac Golf Resort & Spa

In the high desert of southern Arizona, where the Santa Cruz River carves through ancient cottonwoods and the Santa Rita Mountains frame distant horizons, Tubac Golf Resort & Spa occupies 500 acres of storied land that has welcomed visitors since Spanish colonists first established their settlement in 1789. This historic hacienda-style retreat offers an authentic Southwest experience that extends far beyond its championship golf courses, creating a destination where relaxation, adventure and cultural immersion converge. Today, Tubac remains a working ranch, where guests might spot cattle grazing beyond manicured grounds, adding an element of authentic Western life to the refined resort experience.

Worth Traveling For

Tee Off in Style

The golf at Tubac transcends typical Arizona experiences. Robert "Red" Lawrence's design evolved into three distinct nine-hole courses—Otero, Anza and Rancho—that you can mix and match for completely different 18-hole adventures. This parkland layout defies desert stereotypes with rolling terrain, strategic water features and mature trees creating natural corridors between mountain ranges. Four sets of tees per hole ensure everyone finds their challenge, while the Santa Cruz River creates surprisingly lush conditions. The expansive spa channels high desert elements into treatments rooted in place rather than generic luxury, with botanical oils, eucalyptus steam rooms and desert earth elements creating genuine restoration. The working ranch atmosphere adds authentic touches most resorts can't replicate.
