Relaxed Place

We played a round there when the weather was nice. Nice welcome, €50 per green fee, a fair price. The halfway hut, which we also used, is the best, but we found the state of maintenance to be less nice: there are cigarette butts lying around everywhere, the greenkeepers cut the palm trees weeks ago and all the dried branches are lying in piles everywhere, including in a bunker. Some of the rakes are broken, some women's tees are only provisional, fairways are so-so, the greens were good. And we also noticed the stench on one or two holes.

Nice place

The game was fun when the weather was nice, especially when you start with birdie. The place is a bit reminiscent of Salgados in the Algarve. It is pleasant to play because it is relatively flat. Nice halfway hut that you pass twice, as well as a cute clubhouse.

Nice resort place in southern Spain on the border with Portugal

Played on 9/11/2021. The flat 18-hole course of the so-called Old Course (cart not required) is located in the south-westernmost tip of Spain, directly separated from Portugal only by the Guadiana River. Coming from the Spanish A49 or the Portuguese A22, take the first or last exit after / before the border and drive through Ayamonte, from which the square is located to the south. There is signage. There is also the Valle Guadiana Links north of the motorway from the same club / operator, which is rated separately by me. The parking lot for green fee players is approx. 200 m from the hotel / reception. The 18 lanes of the Old Course meander through a resort and past a nature park that is criss-crossed by natural water channels. The resort development bothers little but cannot be discussed completely. The tracks are laid out in an interesting way, but without the big highlights. Water comes into play several times, which maintains the tension. The second run is worth mentioning here. One or the other tree planting must also be taken out of the game. Sometimes the fairways are very open, trees such as pines, pines and particularly interesting pomegranate trees come into play. There are also many very beautiful new plantings. A few doglegs and well-placed bunkers complete the game. Incidentally, higher HC should rather choose the front tees in order to maintain the joy of playing. The condition was absolutely fine. The greens faithfully and, above all, quickly. The discounts were mostly tight, but otherwise okay. After 9 holes you are not directly back at the clubhouse, but a little away from it. On the 9th green there is a classic halfway house with toilets and a kiosk where you can get supplies for the back nine. There is a small toilet at the tee of the 6 and the 15. The smell that accompanies you from 13 to 18, depending on the wind direction, is a bit ugly. It comes from the sewage treatment plant that is located directly behind the road to the plant. Since the hotel is also located there, I don't know if I would definitely book there! The game on a sunny Saturday afternoon was brisk but not overcrowded. It was not until lane 14 that we ran into the flights that were playing in front of us and there was a little waiting time. We had booked a start time online via the homepage. € 99 for two people with a buggy is absolutely fine. There is a sundowner tariff online from 2 p.m. for an affordable € 35.50. You should definitely make a reservation online, as the regular green fee according to the homepage is almost twice as high and therefore rather expensive. The green fee is paid at the hotel reception, where there is also a mini pro shop for the essentials and a restaurant (not used). The restaurant toilets can also be used here, but they are very small and could have been cleaner for a hotel. The staff at the front desk were busy and friendly and handed over the key to the cart if booked. The cart was numbered and ready in front of the door. It was without GPS but otherwise OK. There was no water or anything else. The paths to tees 1 and 10 and to the driving range are signposted. There is also a building for the pro shop (closed) at tee 1 (PAR 3). There is nothing fundamental against a round on this resort course, hence the recommendation.

Nice place for all skill levels

The course offers all HCP classes a nice and enjoyable game. Challenging it is only in stronger winds (had strong gusts today), otherwise ball losses are unlikely.
I can recommend the place to anyone who does not necessarily look for something spectacular.
Why is in the characteristic of Links Course, I have a mystery.

Nice place in a relaxed atmosphere

4.5 stars We played the course 4 times in the Whitsun holidays at the end of May. The registration took place in the adjacent hotel. Staff in general very friendly. As the greens were aerated, we got the green fee 3 x for 25 €. Then for 2 people with Cart to 110 €. The place was well visited, but always a nice flow of the game was guaranteed. Some fairways are quite narrow, but with halfway straight strokes also for (so golfer 32/54 hcp) to play well. Unfortunately, the weather was pretty fresh for me just 20 degrees for the season and not so easy with the cold wind from the Atlantic. Otherwise highly recommended!

Good and Relaxing!!!

Very flat course, which is now super grown and can be very narrow in some places.
Length off the tee is not a disadvantage!
Except for the unspectacular par 3 at 11 all the holes are really very nice cars and have their own charm, as already described the space is not spectacular, but very lovely and relaxing! The place is very well maintained, fairways, tees and semi-rough all perfect! I particularly want to commend the middle of April, the greens, super fast, directional stability and fair! Hotel guests can enjoy unlimited golf including trolley. Everything is very casual here, yet stylishly Andalusian look. "Unfortunately," the now but strongly ingrown Golf Hotel (mag from May to September but his shadow Technically important) has a very good standard!
Great rooms, very clean, with private balcony, nice breakfast, good tapas at Golf Club (Hotel and Golf Club is one)! The whole staff of this small hotel is very friendly and nice, no mass processing!
Dinner should not at the hotel, half-board meals (no buffet) are not for everyone.
Many golf courses are also within reach, as well as the long sandy beach of the Atlantic! Faro and Seville a short hop!!!
A great, very relaxing week's holiday in Isla Canela,
and the golf course was much, much better than we expected, we can only recommend the total package

Very pleasant atmosphere

Flush, easy with trolley manageable Direction Place with great trees, good condition, extremely fast greens. Slope rating is relatively high, presumably due to the length and some difficult holes that need to be played tactically. If you have that out, can be played due to the high default the handicap or relatively easy to improve.
It has a pleasant relaxation, a marshal one rarely encounters, the staff at the golf desk are very nice and they gave a clear green fee reduction after prolonged rain.
Those looking Spektaktuläres, possibly being out of place, but it can be very pleasant and stress-free golf.

Excellent place

Relatively flat but challenging and interesting course. For all handicaps a challenge (Handicap is a success) until you know the place a little better. Well maintained, partly a bit parched places. In October, in time have we played course, very fast greens.
Next visit in Andalusia we will play here again.
hcp -19.9 and -54

Another tip

We (a group of 10 players) have played the course in March 2016 and 2014 and will visit him in March 2017th This place in combination with the hotel is a gem.
The place was well maintained, the water is there, unlike in much of Andalusia, no problem.
It is hard for better golfers to play this course better than the handicap. Through increased greens, a lot of water, bunkers, and sometimes by the wind of course is a challenge.

Since the space is largely flat, lacking a bit of the sea views.
But you can not have it all. The 19th hole on the terrace makes up for.

Beautiful Place

We (HCP 14 +16) have played the course yesterday on our Andalusia trip. to get tee time was not a problem, we played Twillight after 13 PM. € 85 for 2 GF + buggy. Check-in is at the hotel, we were greeted very friendly and were then almost alone on the court.

The condition is very good, both fairways and greens. The course is flat, but a nice layout with lots of trees / palm trees that stand in the way sometimes ☺

We would play the course again.

Construction site

Layout and greens ok. Some T-Box in renewal, characterized provisional tee boxes, square appears unkempt. When you sign up, there was no information on the state nor reduction of GF. Cute Club Restaurant.

Keep it up!

We played the place years ago to talk and found it very nice. We have then used in the Golf Hotel. Two years ago we visited the place in transit back and found that the hotel was closed. The golf course was in a sorry state.
Now I had read that the hotel has re-opened and the state should be ok again. Therefore, I have risked the booking.
Now I want to say a big compliment; The place is very well maintained, greens are really great (maybe a little hard, but swift as an arrow and faithful). Fairways are probably very dry and hard, but it works very well in it and they will probably continue to improve. Because of the adjacent conservation area the place has its own great character. Overall, it was a lot of fun to play on the court. Overall, the whole team is very freundiich and courteous. Price / performance ratio (incl. hotel) top.
We certainly like to come again

Positive Surprise

I have played the course in February 2014 with great joy.

I was due to the low green fee of only € 30 (as Twillight tariff after 13:00 clock - but until about 19:00 clock light) initially skeptical.
Place is easy to find and Pakrplätze are plentiful. The reception (in the hotel and in the clubhouse not) was very friendly and helpful-thank you!
The range and other practice areas are good. The place was in a really good condition. Despite the consistently flat terrain, I found this place never boring and quite varied.
Part of sand had probably gone from the beach and one has yet built a number of bunkers around the greens. Very nice, I also found that the holes name (Iceland, Monument, etc.) have. On that Wednesday afternoon was on the court very little traffic, so that a very relaxing round was possible.
I found this place and would love to play at any time to play it again.

Very worth playing

We played the course with much joy. The fairways are open and well maintained, fast greens and large complete.

It is heavily invested in care. Friendly staff and cozy clubhouse.

We paid for two with buggy € 90.

Conclusion: Play!

Inexpensive and stress-free in May 2010

I have a place in the week of 16 to 23 May 2010 recorded three times.

The green fee of € 66 called here one could forget. In the TUI tour guide at the airport in Faro, there were already € 52 and on the first day at the Hotel RIU Atlantico (7 km away from the square and free shuttle bus) when I went to breakfast, I learned from a co-worker of golfalandalus. en, who sat at a desk in front of the dining room, she gives this place for € 40 green fee or for € 30 (after 14:00 clock). This lady (who speaks perfect German) is also reachable under elisa @ alandalusgolf. com.

Club office they told me all three days that I can start much earlier than 14:00 clock on tea 1, since the place was frequented only very slight. (January to March will be any different.)

The place has a medium difficulty level is completely flat and the driving range meets all expectations.
