Welcome: - Distinctly lacking. We were the last to tee off and it felt like they didn’t want us there. - They closed the warm up range (which was sold as a nice perk as everyone playing the course had the opportunity to warm up there). - The guy on the reception didn’t even look up as we approached. Trying to obtain the keys for the buggies was way more complicated than needed, just a grunt and here they are. - We came straight from the airport so we’re assured there were lockers available, this wasn’t the case. Most had no keys so we just had to risk it. - post the round, we simply couldn’t get a drink as they prioritised the hotel guests and ignored us, so we just left! Course: - really varied but narrow! There had been heavy rain the day before and the greens were not in a good state, but to be expected.
Villa Padierna Golf Club is set amidst gentle green hills and caressed by the breeze of the Mediterranean Sea, its magnificent facilities pay tribute to the game and delight with peerless service and genuine hospitality. The three 18-hole courses have been designed to be challenging and pleasurable for golfers of all ages and abilities.
An exceptional drainage system allows immediate resumption of play after rain but with an average of 320 days of sunshine a year on the Costa del Sol hoping it doesn't rain is not something golfers have to worry about.
Flamingos has played host to the European Senior & Ladies European Tours. With undulating greens and enveloping views of the Mediterranean, it has become an epitome of big-time golf on the Costa del Sol. The Alferini course provides a wide variety of natural features and hazards while the short Tramores course serves up a great deal of fun and enjoyment, a highly attractive option to hone your short game, and equally suitable for junior golfers, beginners and time-strapped golfers.
With unforgettable Mountain and sea-views, a round at Villa Padierna Golf Club is a top-choice when playing golf in this area of Spain.
