Marbella Golf Courses

The Marbella golf scene is both of high quantity and high quality and to use Marbella as your base when you take a Costa del Sol Golf holiday makes a lot of sense because you have everything on hand to ensure that this will be an all action golf holiday in Spain.

The nightlife of Marbella needs no introduction neither does the beaches, shopping, restaurants and frenetic bars that are all part of this famous resort because Marbella has been well heralded as a Spanish golf holiday resort of note.

We all know what Marbella has to offer when you are not playing golf but do you know what it has to offer for your golfing pleasure? Well you will not be disappointed on that score either because a golf holiday in Marbella puts you in the perfect location where you have reasonable access to every golf course in the Costa del Sol this side of Malaga. In fact when you take a Marbella golf holiday every golf course in the Costa del Sol (This side of Malaga) is within a 35 minute drive, which means to say that you have a choice of over 50 Costa del Sol golf courses.

The thing is that when you take a golf break abroad it’s normally a weekend or at most a week, whatever the duration, time is at a premium and golf courses on the doorstep is the order of the day. Well, you will not be disappointed on that score because there are no less than 7 premium Costa del Sol golf courses within 7 miles and these are, Santa Maria, Marbella Golf & Country Club, Santa Clara, Rio Real, Aloha Golf, Los Brisas and Los Naranjos.

Amazingly it does not end there because within 15 miles of Marbella you have an additional 14 Costa del Sol golf courses including Calanova, Miraflores, Cabopino, the two Guadalmina golf courses, La Quinta, Los Arqueros, 2 golf courses of Atalaya Golf Resort, El Paraiso, Tramores, Flamingos, Alferini and Monte Mayor.

The quality and the quantity of the Costa del Sol golf courses described above should provide sufficient choice for most golfing groups unless of course you want to play the best golf courses and some of the most expensive in Europe, then Valderrama, Sotogrande and la Reserva are within just over 30 minutes drive.

A golf holiday in Marbella will prove to be a golfing experience with plenty of choice on your doorstep both on and off the golf course.

Alhaurin

Alhaurin golf is the brain child of the great Severiano Ballesteros and a more spectacular golf course in the Costa del Sol would be hard to imagine. This 18 hole, par 72 has a maximum length of 6045 metres and has been hewn from and integrated with the foothills of the Sierra de Mijas mountains.

The holes run along steep sided valleys and the fairways are often inclined laterally in tune with the natural lie of the land which in itself is a challenge, especially when on most holes you have ravines on the one side and scrubby hillside on the other.

There are areas on the golf course where the landscape and hence the holes are less dramatic and more in keeping with a parkland golf course and here there are some water features and mature trees.

Alhaurin Golf is a marmite golf course; those that love it cannot get enough of it especially as it is fantastic value for money golf course and the views of mountains and the magnificent seascapes are awe inspiring.

When you take your golf holiday in the Costa del Sol you will have to try this golf course because you could well fall in love with it or if it is not your cup of tea at least you will know for the future.

The fairways and greens are always well tended and it is well suited to the careful golfer rather than the distance boys, it is probably not enjoyable if your handicap exceeds 24.

Adding Alhaurin golf to your Costa del Sol golf holiday itinerary will certainly be an experience that will live with you for a very long time and there are not many golf courses that you say that about.
