What YGT clients say…
[quote]I’ve been going to La Manga for years now, each time it delivers a really great experience from the golf to the hotel and beyond I don’t think I’d go anywhere else. Having started off a Las Lomas apartments we now stay in the hotel as we prefer the resort feel, that being said if you are a group of golfers Las Lomas is a great place and offers good value if you are going as a society. Also buy a course planner if you’ve not played the courses before, it is well worth taking less club and being in play on certain holes than simply swiping away with a driver.[/quote]Tom, YGT Client review about his recent trip to La Manga
