Played Alferini, set in a valley and mountains, it is a gorgeous course and a fair challeng for all standards of golfer it is different to your average Costa Del Sol courses. Take a buggy it is hilly.

Played both courses in the last week. They made good investments on the courses and now they look fantastic. We are playing Atalaya since 2004 and are thinking now to become member at the Club.

The only defect that has this course is that its slope does not agree with the difficulty. They are aware of it and have advised the Federation. (Translated from a review in Spanish).

This is a little gem and should be on any holiday golfers itinerary. It is only a 9 hole course but can either be played twice to make up the full 18 or can be played from yellow tees on the first loop and the whites on the 2nd to make it a bit different. This is not a long course but the setting is stunning and the tees, greens and fairways are very well kept. There are a number of elevation changes and or doglegs that make up challenge instead of relying on distance as a defence. The par 5 4th hole is the best looking hole I have played anywhere all year. It starts off up and over a hill and then sweeps down and round to two tier green guarded by trees, bunkers and water. Not long but the drive and 2nd shot need to be accurate if you want to have a chance to go for the flag. The early bird deal (before 9am) and the all day ticket are worth considering for value. I will return here.

Played the course last week on a recommendation from a friend and was encouraged by a recent review that suggested that the course had "recovered" as compared to earlier reviews that suggested that the course was poor. The greens were good and the fairways were OK (but only OK...not good), but the course as a whole looked tired and in need of considerable investment. The course looks as if it has been top notch but has gone to seed. There was evidence of the surrounding rough grass encroaching on the fairways in many places and the ponds and lakes were typically only half full...showing all the ugly liners and pumping pipes. There was evidence of maintenance on some holes but it was not clear whether this was the start of a wholesale re-furbishment or the last efforts to prevent total meltdown. This is a shame because this course has some great looking holes and in tip top condition would be a real treat for a mid handicapper. One to watch...if the course condition improves...go there...if not, then go elsewhere.

Played the New course last week. Course in good condition and the greens are running true. It had rained hard in the preceding couple of days but the course drained well and there were very few soggy spots. Have played here previously (18 months ago) and the course has stayed in tip top condition. The 16th and 17th holes have been changed (for the better in my view). Not a super difficult course for the mid handicapper - there is a mix of tricky holes that you would not find back home (hole 5 with a steeply tilted and split fairway; hole 6 where it is difficult to see the landing ground from the tee) as well as some short holes or ones that have been squashed in between Old Course holes (eg Hole 18). Clubhouse is nice with a lovely upstairs balcony for the bar. Worth a visit for a holiday golfer with a mid handicap.
