Although we offer discounts at over 100 golf courses throughout Spain, here are our recommended package courses
Costa del Sol / Costa del Golf
Cabopino: This 18 hole course is short but very tight in places. The modern design of Juan Ligues Creus features lakes that affect at least four holes. It offers three par 3's, two par 5's and thirteen par 4's in its layout. The signature hole has to be the third where the tee drops dramatically from the side of a cliff to the fairway situated some 200 metres below!
Alhaurin: The full length course is up and down and fairways are long and narrow so straight hitting is a must in order to avoid bunkers, lakes and the colourful array of flowers which make the rough look almost inviting. Playing here, however, is less intimidating than it appears and with up to six teeing areas at each hole Alhaurín is adaptable to various standards of golfer.
Santa Maria: An 18 hole championship course situated at the edge of a luscious forest of pine trees and cork oaks. The first 9 holes opened in 1991 and were designed by Antonio Garcia Garrido. The second 9, inaugurated in 1996 were designed by Santa Maria's very own technical team, tracing the contours of two valleys in which the natural vegetation, streams and four lakes form natural hazards.
Los Naranjos: Situated right in the heart of Europe’s golf el dorado on Costa del Sol. A challenge not only for the average player but even for the very best professionals!

There are various water hazards so concentration is very important as any mistake, however small, could lead to the loss of the ball.

A parkland course, with wide fairways lined with tough rough and some banks.

Every hole is unique in design and character.

Now with new owners in charge the club is benefiting from a programme of improvements and rejuvenation.

Estepona Golf: The design uses the natural landscape which is set against the Sierra Bermeja mountain range. The fairways are wide and the greens large which provides a challenge for players of all levels, but doesn't penalise the average golfer. There are many palms, eucalyptus and wild olive trees on the course, and players have a great opportunity to enjoy many rare species of wildlife, particularly on the second half.
Mijas Golf: Mijas Golf has become one of the most popular golf complexes in Europe, known by the outstanding condition of the courses.

It offers an interesting and varied game due to its long fairways and has two clearly different parts.
Santana Golf: Sympathetically laid out by the architect Cabell B. Robinson, is set in a former avocado plantation which provided a natural solution to many problems. The final result is a magnificent course with wide and well defined fairways on level terrain, hence easily walkable, where water features play an important albeit not excessive part in the overall design.
Calanova Manuel Pinero Golf made the most of the surroundings when designing Calanova's 18 holes and has come up with a course that medium handicap players will find is a pleasure, yet challenging to play.
