Golfing excellence on the Costa del Sol: exploring La Hacienda Links Golf Resort

Posted on by

Nestled in one of the most privileged enclaves of the Costa del Sol, near iconic landmarks such as Valderrama and Sotogrande, La Hacienda Links Golf Resort stands as an exclusive golf club offering its patrons the opportunity to indulge in two world-class golf courses: Links and Heathland. With 36 holes that have become a benchmark in the world of golf, the resort boasts impressive views of the sea, Gibraltar, and Africa.

These are two of the most chosen courses in the Costa del Sol by those looking to enjoy their best Spain golf holidays with Tee Times Golf Agency.

La Hacienda Links Golf Resort was recently bestowed as a European Tour Destinations member, a distinction reserved only for the finest golf clubs worldwide. Not only that. Weeks ago, the resort won the “Silver Flag Destination” at the 59club Europe Service Excellence Awards, solidifying its status as an exclusive golf destination. This prestigious accolade underscores the resort’s commitment to providing a top-tier golfing experience and exceptional hospitality. 

La Hacienda Links Golf Resort courses

The Links Course boasts some of the best views over the Mediterranean. A par 72 Links-style course comprising 18 holes, it was designed by Peter Alliss and Clive Clark and opened its fairways in 1992. Undergoing a profound transformation in 2021, it was redesigned by Kurtis Bowman, emerging as a modern and sustainable golfing haven.

The renovation introduced revamped tees, greens, and bunkers, with several holes featuring some of Spain’s largest greens. The course offers a challenging yet rewarding experience, with wide fairways, expansive greens, strategically placed bunkers, and gentle slopes descending towards the sea, culminating in a beautiful beachfront spanning almost 2 km. Many of its holes hug the shoreline, providing breathtaking views of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar, and Africa from every green.

The Heathland Course was designed by Dave Thomas, the renowned former Ryder Cup player and architect of numerous internationally acclaimed courses. This par 73 offers a diverse natural landscape and promises a memorable golfing escapade. Set amidst plateaus with exceptional views of the Mediterranean Sea amid typical Andalusian hills, several holes wind through a valley adorned with large lakes and narrow fairways. It has become a must-visit destination for avid golfers and a regional landmark.
