Almenara Golf Course
18 holes par 72 6168 metres
Costa del Sol Golf Course
Almenara Golf Course in Spain was designed by Dave Thomas in 1999
Set around lakes and Cork Oak trees. Greens already accepted as
being of tournament quality. A future classic course
Almenara Golf Club extends its activities to golf tourism. Almenara
is the first complex which has provided for golf courses and Hotels,
located between the Valderrama and San Roque courses. The Almenara
course, opened in the Spring of 1999, has been built over very hilly
terrain and the Dave Thomas layout adds even more difficulties with
narrow fairways and typical high lipped fairway bunkers, which catch
anything hit off target. This is riot a wide course and what with
the danger lurking alongside or across the fairways you are often
better off leaving the driver in the bag. A well built course where
maintenance is good.
This is now a 27 hole golf course set in the upper part of Sotogrande
500 metres from Club de Golf Valderrama and five minutes from the
beach, surrounded by cork oak trees and wild pines and several streams
as well as a natural lake, all of which serve to make this a very
beautiful course
Located close to Valderrama this course has spectacular views and
is maintained to a high standard. Set around two lakes the undulating
terrain offers a true test of golf. Large greens are protected by
fine sanded bunkers.
Soft spikes only. Buggy recommended.
