4Nice combination of 6 x Par 5, ^ x Par 4 and 6 X Par 3. Don't be fooled by thinking it's easy because of par 3s. Plenty of variety to challenge the golfer.(View full Review...)

3.5Excellent greens and generally in good condition, but a bit tricked up owing to the hilly location. Worth a visit but there are better courses available .(View full Review...)

3.75Superb course, tight driving, ball eating rough and hard-lightning fast greens. I would not recommend this course to mid-high handicappers as most holes are unforgiving, but to the single figure player this is one of the best i have played (and most spectacular). Rivals La Cala in looks and difficulty - rewards the brave but punishes the foolish. Most of the greens are two-tiered and very easy on the eye but thats where the pleasantries end..they roll true but are like glass, so approach with caution. Will definately play again as course knowledge is a huge benefit and will make it all the more enjoyable.(View full Review...)

3.5Very difficult course off white tees if you're not a very good golfer (i.e. 8 or less) stick to the yellow tees otherwise you'll ruin your round & enjoyment. A lot of tight blind shots where course knowledge is a must. Interesting layout and course itself in good condition. Would probably have to play again, and this time off yellow tees! to appreciate it more!

4.25Course just recently re-opened. Fairways were a little bit hairy - but this was required to thicken the grass. Layout is really interesting. Some hole look spanish, some look scandinavian - amongst the pine trees.
The greens were simply the best we have played in four years golf in Spain. A the current prices, I would ge there quickly before everyone finds this gem of a course. PS - you will need a buggy. The staff were absolutely brilliant. Made us feel really welcome.
Only minor criticism is that the 17th hole is a wee bit 'theme-park' on design.(View full Review...)
