Golf Poniente at Villatiana Resort

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. Alicante is a great city for nightlife with its historic old town and its superb new marina area.

There are some wonderful mountain white wash villages in the Costa Blanca, especially as you drive north towards Valencia from Alicante, the scenery and the climate improve as you head north and there are some wonderful seaside towns like Calpe, Javea and Denia along this coast. The spectacular Jack Nicklaus Real de Faula course sits above Benidorm with lovely coastal and mountain views nestling beside the Villaitana Hotel. You can expect 20 degrees here even in December and January, ideal for a winter golfing break.
