Aloha Golf Club


Aloha-Golf-ClubFounded in the year 1975, the Aloha Golf Club was designed by one of Spain’s acclaimed architect Javier Arana. Javier, who died just before the inauguration of the course, is responsible for creating such a wonderful view of this 18-hole course with uneven greens and well placed obstacles.

As in case of other holiday resorts in Costa del Sol, Marbella houses a good number of sophisticated and well-designed golf courses, including the Aloha Golf Club, those remain open for all year round in a wonderful Mediterranean weather.

Most of the clubs are open both for professionals and holidaymakers. Located in the Golf Valley, in Nueva Andalucia, Marbella, Aloha Golf Club, too, welcomes all its visitors with the best of facilities and services. The Club stands as a reference point for both professional and amateurs who wish to enjoy the real essence of golf in Spain in a such a beautiful course.

For those who have ever been dreaming to try golfing in one of those numerous golf courses in Spain, Aloha Golf Club is indubitably the best one that suits golfers of all levels. Furthermore, its easy accessibility from Marbella city centre and the cosmopolitan marina Puerto Banus (just few minutes’ drive), makes it a straightforward stop for golf tourists to Costa del Sol, southern Spain.

Unlike many other golf courses, which are not open for public and only reserved for professionals, Aloha Golf Club is quite different in that sense. Even locals or general visitors can hire golf equipments from the club and play some shots while learning few lessons from the on-site instructors.

However, Aloha Golf Club is always a place for those serious professionals who find it comfy to practice while mastering their shots in those varied holes. All holes are not so distantly placed except very few like the 1st (par 5, 545 metres), 4th (par 3, 207 metres), 10th (par 5, 513 metres) 16th (par 5, 481 metres) and the 18th (par 4,410 metres), those need powerful shots with great precision.

Facilities & Services at Aloha Golf Club

Beside the 18-hole golf course, Aloha Golf Club has a 9-hole par 3 course in company with two putting greens and a practice chipping area. The club has a sauna and swimming poll, but those are restricted for the use of members only.

The restaurant inside the club, with a well-established reputation for serving the finest food in a luxuriously decorated setting, is open for visitors while a special area is only reserved for members. There is also a Pro shop inside the club with all sorts of golf related products, available at an affordable price.

Golf in Spain


golf-course-spainSpain is a paradise for golfers of all ages and races. Folk come from the UK, Ireland, Holland, Germany-especially from the colder northern countries where the rain and cold can severely limit the golfing fanatic’s pleasure!

Here golf is an all year sport, only the odd very rainy day in November and February can stop play. Temperature is never a hindrance-you can always have lunch and chill out in the clubhouse pool during the midday heat of the summer months!

Andalucía and the Costa del Sol (or now as some of the motorway signs have it the Costa del Golf!) is a difficult place for a golfer –too much choice! There are over 30 courses and all are in beautiful locations and normally have spectacular sea views often right across the straits of Gibraltar to Africa. These great courses combined with the wonderful entertainments available for children i.e. the beach, the pool and riding-make Spain perfect for the golfing family as well as groups of friends.

The majority of golf courses have beautiful hotels on them often with very exclusive facilities such as Spas and health clinics. These can be expensive but most courses have “urbanisations” on them. These are purpose built apartments and houses which can often be rented out and some have great views over the greens.

For the dedicated fanatic buying a golf course property “off-plan” while it is still in the construction phase is often the most economic way acquiring a lifelong holiday home Towns and villages around golf courses offer slightly cheaper properties to rent or buy. If you are of a less adventurous nature and like your holiday planned for you, travel companies now offer all sorts of golf holidays from family and beginner’s packages to golf tour type holidays where you can move from one course to another to another in order to appreciate the variety and beauty of the Spanish courses.

Company and corporate holidays are offered too, which when combined with the sightseeing and the gastronomic opportunities, are an ideal way to motivate staff or impress clients!

As in the rest of Europe golfing is not a cheap sport (expect to pay up to 200 euros a round), but the courses are world class. The famous Valderrama course, home to the Volvo Masters, is also renowned for hosting the Ryder Cup and American Express championships in the nineties. Designed by Robert Trent Jones it really is a beauty.

The nearby San Roque courses, also breathtaking, are presided over by Seve Ballesteros. The Spanish Open was held here this year. The Costa del Sol is dotted with courses all the way along and lots more are in the pipeline if the planning and water situation can be solved. Golf is a big employer in this part of the world!

Other regions of Spain can’t be ignored; Murcia has the prestigious La Manga resort with three very fine courses, Almeria has desert golf courses complete with cacti and agave, Catalonia has excellent courses as does the Costa Blanca and all the Balearic and Canary islands.

A big golf growth area is the Costa de la Luz on the Atlantic Coast where life is still slightly more peaceful than the noisier Mediterranean resorts .Try the Dunas de Donaña in the Donaña National Park!

Altogether Spain has over 230 courses and counting! Enjoy yourself!
