ALHAURIN GOLF RESORT

Our Golf Break to Fuengirola went well, The accommodation at the PYR Fuengirola provided a good base for our golf break, the rooms were of reasonable size and provided comfortable accommodation for three guys with the use of the pull out sofa bed, we were hardly ever in the room, so we felt this was decent value for money accommodation.

Our first round was at the Mijas golf club (Los Olivios). Teeing it up at 1400 hours the golf course was empty, with the sun shining it was the perfect start to our break, good range / practice facilities allowed us the opportunity to loosen up after our flight. Our party consisted of 4,9 and a 12 handicapper, who all enjoyed the Mijas club nothing to demanding, mainly flat with some nice backdrops and "Fun" par 3s, not too many places to loose your ball so about right for some social holiday golf. The course was in good condition and well worth another visit.

We had two rounds at the Alhaurin club, the staff at the club were fantastic holding on to our suitcases in the pro shop providing us with carrier bags of ice to keep our drinks cold, they could not have made us more welcome. The course itself was brutal on the first visit, trying to work your ball round the mountains without knowing where the 50 foot drops where off the side of the fairway. Its fair to say that after two rounds we actually came to love the course, there are some memorable elevated tee shots to be hit on the front nine, which I think we would all like another go at.
