End of May 2014 we played 3 golfcourses in Valencia. This golfcourse was the worst. In the past it has to be good, but now a days too little irrigation, old clubhouse and bad services.

average course buggys have to stay on path unless your a member who all seemed to have medical conditions 2 of our party had phones stolen from bags on course we played 4 courses in this area and this was the most uninviting to our party

End of May 2014 we played 3 golfcourses around Valencia. El Saler was by far the best. Great fairways, greens and surrounding.

I recently went to Lorca as it was down as 1/3 of the courses my group were looking to play next year, so it was a mini scouting mission. From the motorway it looks spectacular but on closer inspection it was far from that! Unkept, greens looked awful, tee's were very grassy and looked like semi rough. There were no supplies in the pro shop (tees, balls, clubs) that I could see and the score cards were photocopies and badly done at that. Unless there is a massive improvement within a year I wouldn't go near it at all. Proceed with caution if your a golfer and expect a good level of course as it's everything but that.

Lovely setting, par 3's were longer than average so a challenge for higher handicappers. Unfortunately we played during greens maintenance week (they didn't warn us in advance)

A lovely course in good condition. The starter was very pleasant which was nice after a luke warm welcome. Our round was ruined on the 17th tee by a lout of a marshal who said we were slow - we had waited for the group in front most of the way round! Would go back!

Valderrama is a very exclusive and prestigious resort that more than lives up to its reputation. I had an absolutely exceptional time, the course quality was fantastic and it was the perfect challenge for me. The facilities were exceptional, as were the staff that are a true credit to the club.

Not that great but at least is close to my house. (Translated from a review in Spanish).

A lovely golf course to be enjoyed by the recreeational golfer and pro alike. A good layout with a lot of interesting holes. Lots of fun.

A spectacular place to play golf in fantastic condition. Many holes have shots over ravines, or from elevated tees. I would imagine that there is very little like this in the UK. Two minor negatives; because it's so tough, play is a little slow, and often the nature of the course (for example the camber of some of the fairways) means that your occasional good shots often end up in all sorts of trouble. Still, I expect they say that at Augusta... A must play!
