As soon as you get to the course, you are amazed by its beauty and how friendly the staff is. The course layout is also really good, but the services and the atention to course detail still need work
Also, the value for money is good and the restaurant is good quality.
The best thing is its really quiet and there arent that many people playing at the same time on the course so anyone can enjoy a good round of golf.

Mixed emotions about this course. Booked a couple of days in advance for a 3pm tee time and asked for a buggy and 4 sets of hire clubs. When we arrived they had to make up a bag of v old clubs for one of our party. and two of use got what looked like brand new sets of Ping G20s . That is until we got to the tee and discovered that the pings were mixed ladies flex graphites and steel shaft regulars. My set had virtually no steel. As they had no other clubs to give us we had to make the best of this. When we complained afterwards they gave us 20 euros out of the 60 it had cost to hire the two sets. They told us that some people like to play with mixed sets!!!!! However the course itself is challenging. Some good holes played over ravines and as mentioned above quite a few blind shots. The greens were in good condition and mostly fast and true. I enjoyed the course and would like to play it again with a proper set of clubs. The lady in the shop though needs to get some training in customer service

Played Mar Menor yesterday, and will probably not play it again as there are better courses in the same region. Pretty long course, especially front nine. Bunkers impossible to play well as they are hard as concrete. Not much varations between the holes. They are all flat, and protected by fairway and greenside bunkers. Not much water in play. Would recommend Las Colinas and La Finca (in Torrevieja) over this course any day.

Highlight the hotel next to the course. (Translated from a review in Spanish).

golf course is splendid, well manicured
and has aged to it. Tee boxes are all flat and tees are changed daily. Fairways are like carpet, pre rough is cut to european standard. bunkers could do with a bit more sand, but this is very personal whilst green are immaculate. All in all if you are after a very nice golf course near Malaga, then don't go anywhere.
However do not expect any kind of services whatsoever, from reservation, welcome, on the course, and Bar the service is a word unknown at Torrequebrada. pathetic really and shameful. i am not going to give you details but golf is about communicating and networking....obviously they have not heard these words overthere!!

To be honest, this is one of the best golf course near Malaga. Mature, well maintained, manicure. Tee boxes are all flat, fairways are immaculate and green are extremely fast and true to the lines. The only downside to this golf course is the people that work there to be honest. We were a party of 7 welcomed by a Dutch man not even looking at us and asking "who are you"? in a very rude way. The rest of his interaction with us was on the level. He asked us to go and get the buggies from the caddy master....got their and the caddy master told us to get the one in front of the Pro shop. Out of 4 buggies, one had the sat nav not working and one died on the 16 hole. When we got back to the clubhouse and complaint we were told that it was our fault as we should have phoned them and let them know.....in insight she was right, however customer care is paramount to the experience and Torrequebrada is a Pit for it? THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU!
So, if you are in for a very nice round of golf and be treated like S..t then it is the place to go. In all fairness they are so many other golf courses around the area that you will have ample choice for much better experience. Rio Real and Malaga CC are two other nearby that we recommend.

A lot of work has clearly been done to the course and clubhouse. Excellent tees, signing, fairways and new bunker sand. Clubhouse seating outside area now very pleasant too. A perfect day.

I have played Desert springs quite a lot of times maybe 30 to 40 games over 4 yrs, I have hired a place there and also visited and done a pay and play, The last time I went which was in 2013 I went on a unlimited golf package which to me means I can play in the morning and then again in the afternoon that is unlimited golf I do unlimited as when you are at desert springs you are quite away from everywhere, I did not get unlimited golf as the tee times they gave me was after 10.30 and 2 of the afternoons 1 was at 2.50 and another at 3 I complained and told them I would not even get the round finished it would be dark they agreed and put me on to another course 20 mins away as they could not get me on any earlier, the rounds was taking 5 + hours as it was always so busy with all the offers course was nice but would not book unlimited golf there again as it is not what it seems

As already said, challenging course, putting on this greens is an art. Superfast. Fairways were dry but still normal playable actually good, much better than on El Valle. Clubhouse-disaster (container) with bad serves (no life, like for example Calanova container clubhouse)
