Reserva Conchal hosted the inaugural tournament in 2017, which was Costa Rica’s first PGA Tour event in more than 30 years. Jose Toledo shot rounds of 66-63-66—195 in the rain-shortened event to win by two shots over Ryan Ruffels.
“We are thrilled the PGA Tour Latinoamerica and the Costa Rica Tourism Institute once again selected our championship golf course as the site of the Essential Costa Rica Classic,” says Carlos Rojas Soto, Director of Golf of Reserva Conchal. “The professional golfers enjoyed the playability and conditioning of our golf course, and tournaments like this help showcase Reserva Conchal as a world-class destination for golf.”
The sporty, par-71 will be set up to play at 7,021 yards, its longest configuration from the back tees.

The returning nine features breathtaking ocean vistas with unforgettable holes winding through lakes, rugged ravines and rolling hills.
