Alhaurin Golf
Alhaurín el Grande, Costa del Sol, Spain
Alhaurin Golf is a striking inland course set in the foothills above Alhaurín el Grande, in the verdant valley that separates the coastal strip of the Costa del Sol from the higher Andalusian interior. The course was designed by Severiano Ballesteros, and his fingerprints are evident throughout: a creative, varied layout that rewards imagination and shot-making over brute power, with risk-reward decisions built into many holes. The setting is exceptional — broad mountain panoramas, olive groves, and the clean air of the Málaga hinterland create an atmosphere far removed from the coastal resort scene. The on-site hotel and well-equipped facilities make Alhaurin Golf a popular base for a dedicated golf week, and the course regularly features among Andalusia's most recommended inland rounds.
