Camiral Golf & Wellness is home to 36 really good holes, which form two great courses: the Stadium Course and Tour Course. Golfers rate both courses very highly. The Stadium Course, however, is the absolute favourite and also more demanding. The golf resort is situated close to Girona airport and not too far from Barcelona or the coast. The new LAVIDA Hotel is great and is located on the golf course.

INFINITUM is Europe's premier golf and lifestyle destination on the Costa Daurada, boasting multiple championship courses and hosting prestigious tournaments. Experience luxury living in harmony with nature at this exceptional Mediterranean retreat. Extra information regarding the resort can be found here.

La Hacienda Alcaidesa Links Golf Resort is a golf resort where you will find style, nature, views, security, and the best golf all wrapped up in one place. Located in one of the most exclusive areas in the south of Spain. Alcaidesa means enjoying the only Links-type golf course in the south of Spain. 18 holes with spectacular views over the Mediterranean and Gibraltar. It also offers a second 18-hole, Heathland-type course, kilometres of practically virgin beach, restaurants, hotels and properties for living all year round. You can stay in either the Vista Real Alcaidesa apartments or the Aldiana Club Costa del Sol Hotel, which are both located on or very near the golf course.

The Empordà Golf Resort enjoys a privileged location just thirty minutes from Girona and its airport, and fifteen minutes from the best beaches on the Costa Brava. The course at Empordà Golf consists of 36 holes divided between two 18-hole rounds: Links and Forest. Robert Von Hagge successfully integrated a links-style area with large lakes, dunes and extensive bunkers into a Mediterranean landscape. This gives us dense, well-maintained pinewoods and wide fairways. The renewed Terraverda Hotel is located right next to the course and features 86 rooms.

La Cala is a genuine haven of tranquillity and this golf resort is home to three high-quality golf courses: Campo America, Campo Europa and Campo Asia. Golfers have a slight preference for the America course, but differences are very small. When playing at La Cala Resort, golfers advise hiring a buggy. You can stay at the La Cala Resort, an exclusive complex with a great swimming pool overlooking the golf course and a luxurious spa.

“36 holes of nature…” is undoubtedly the best way to describe the Golf El Rompido golf course. Prestigious Spanish designer, Alvaro Arana created both of the courses. They represent a new concept in golf, where the fundamental objective is respect for the environment. The North and South Course are both decent golf courses. Golfers tend to favour the North Course just a little more. You can stay in the Precise Resort El Rompido.

Villa Padierna features 3 golf courses (Flamingos Golf, Alferini Golf and Tramores Golf). Golfers rate The Alferini as the highest of the courses. Whereas the Tramores is the least of the three courses. Villa Padierna is located only 10 minutes from Puerto Banus. The Anantara Villa Padierna Palace is designed like a Tuscan palace. It features a 2,000 m² spa, Roman Amphitheater and a luxurious beach club.

La Manga Club has always been synonymous with golf. The prestigious North, South and West courses along with the Pitch & Putt offer different styles to challenge golfers of all levels. These 18-hole courses have been carefully designed by Arnold Palmer, Robert Putman, Dave Thomas and Seve Ballesteros, respectively. The golf facilities also include a Golf Practice Centre and a Golf Training Centre. Situated at the heart of La Manga Club, in a unique and natural environment that is located next to Calblanque Natural Park and Mar Menor, Príncipe Felipe hotel is surrounded by 2 of the resort's 3 golf courses.
