Mainland Spain
What a magical land for golf, Spain has become such a big destination these days, it really is remarkable how it has continued to expand over the last 10 years. In the mid 1990s, everyone thought of just one destination and that was the of course the Costa del Sol, well as we come to the close of this decade, there are so many more options in other parts of Spain, with lots of specialised golf resort hotels.
In fact the Costa del Sol has less golf resort hotels than most of the other areas. Each region boasts a different climate, a different style of culture and a different type of cuisine. Whether you enjoy the Catalan style in the regions of Costa Brava and Costa Dorada, in the vicinity of Barcelona,where there are such fine wines and amazing unspoilt rugged coastlines and sandy cove beaches or the rocky rugged arid regions of Almeria or Murcia, further south where there are some cracking palm tree or desert style golf courses. Plus of course the remarkable new Nicklaus Golf Trail which is getting bigger by the month.
Whether you prefer the Costa Blanca to the Costa del Sol, comparing Benidorm to Marbella is impossible of course, but Blanca has some beautiful white sand beaches, far superior to the Costa del Sol and two wonderful golf resort venues at Villataina and Hesperia Alicante. Whilst the Costa Del Sol has the remarkable La Cala 54 hole complex and the superb Almenara complex at Sotogrande including the classy La Reserva, complimented by some little gem boutique golf hotels at La Finca Cortesin and Los Flamingos and the effervescent Guadalmina by the sea with 36 holes on site.
Finally, if you are seeking the real Spain and the very heart of Andalucia pop down to Jerez and stay at the lovely Montecastillo, which is back to its very best, or try the country’s only premium all inclusive golf resort at the Fairplay Golf Hotel where luxury means complete ultimate luxury. Travel that extra 90 minutes by plane down to the Canaries, which may be more expensive year round, but guarantee a wonderful year round temperature of no less than 23 degrees and choose between Tenerife, Gran Canaria or Fuerteventura.Three great golf resort options and all at very different ends of the pricing scale, with Abama taking the biscuit as the best of all of Spain, in terms of sheer luxury and service. Murcia
Serviced by Murcia airport, which has a huge array of no frills airline routes, our featured resorts of La Manga and the Intercontinental properties are within 30 minutes drive away. Enjoy the quality of the 54 hole La Manga Resort or discover the Nicklaus Golf Trail instead. The weather here is very arid and mountainous, ideal for desert style golf and just 90 minutes south of Alicante.
costa almeria
Serviced by Almeria airport, which is just 45 minutes north of Almerimar, this is a huge region for vegetable production, as it is also officially the driest part of Spain, with big mountains and where they filmed many of the old Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Western films. Almerimar is all about palm trees and its lovely little marina, a great value resort on the most idyllic piece of coastline. costa blanca
Serviced by Alicante airport, which has so many charter or no frills flight options and is just 20 minutes from the Hesperia Golf Resort and 45 minutes from Real de Faula, just above Benidorm. The "White Coast" is one of our favourites, beautiful white sand beaches – hence its name and some amazing mountain ranges, just inland, giving it a micro climate, especially in the Benidorm region. Costa Brava
Serviced by Girona airport, which has about 10 major UK flight routes exclusively with Ryanair, the airport is just 7 minutes from the PGA Catalunya Golf Resort and less than 1 hour to Emporda and Platja Pals. Brava means "rugged" in English and this is the coastline most like Devon or Cornwall, small golden sand beaches. costa del sol
Serviced by Malaga or Gibraltar airports, which have lots of flight options from UK airports, Malaga is just 20 minutes from La Cala, whilst Gibraltar is only 20 minutes from Almenara, but more than 1 hour from Malaga. Quite simply,the Costa del Sol is the most well known golfing region in Europe. cadiz
Serviced by Jerez airport or Seville (further to drive), the resort of Montecastillo, is just a 20 minute's transfer away. Whilst the amazing all inclusive resort at Fairplay Golf Hotel is about an hour away, but quite a bit closer to Gibraltar. Cadiz is classic Andalucia, with some great old towns like Jerez, home of Sherry and Brandy production.
