Alhaurin
Alhaurin
Par: 72
Length: 6483 yards
Course designer: Seve Ballesteros
Alhaurin is set in the ruggedly beautifully surroundings of the Sierras de Mijas hills 20 minutes inland from Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol.
Designed by Spanish legend Seve Ballesteros, the course offers a real test with contoured fairways and narrow approaches to the lightly bunkered greens. Spanish oaks, pines, cypress, orange trees and olive groves add to the natural beauty of the course.
Take time on the dogleg par-five sixth to admire the spectacular view.
The La Cala America (formerly North Course) is the most challenging of the 3 courses at La Cala for both length and terrain.
With deep bunkers guarding most greens, water features are a factor on just two holes, which encourages strong play. The course features spectacular mountain and coastal views, towards the end of the 18 holes in particular.
Accuracy is most important on the La Cala Asia (formerly South Course), with deep rough and slopes surrounding many fairways and green. Length is not as much of a factor, making the course suitable and a most enjoyable test for all players.
A spectacular parkland course, and rated as one of the very best on the Costa del Sol, Santana is a demanding challenge to look forward to again and again.
Water plays an important role during the round, although not dominating the overall design.
Buggy paths are beautifully integrated between the rows of trees which include avocado, eucalyptus, orange, lemon, cactus, pines, fig, cork, olive and mango.

Spectacular views of the Mijas Mountains add to the beauty of this Cabell Robinson layout.
Torrequebrada Golf Course is ideally situated between the Mediterranean and the Mijas Mountains, overlooked by the First Flatotel Apartments at Benalmadena.
The attractive layout features tree-lined fairways with mature tropical vegetation and a number of lakes.
The 11th is the signature hole - a 164-metre par-three with water at the front of the green, bunkers surrounding it and a two-tier green! The course includes several dog-legs and accuracy off the tee takes priority over power!
Torrequebrada is a previous host of the Spanish Open and the home base of Spanish Ryder Cup star Miguel Angel Jimenez.
