The weather in the summer is stunning, and even in the winter months, you will find plenty of sunshine to play golf.

With the choice of two airports, Alicante and Valencia, they’ll be plenty of flight options to choose from at the right price to suit you.
Flight times take approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes from London. Transfer times range from around 20 – 40 minutes to the coast and main resorts in the region.
Golf & Resorts
You are spoilt for choice when it comes to golf regions on the Costa Blanca. From the north of the area down to the south, you will find a selection of great golf courses to play, but the most significant concentration can be found in the south.

Our Teams Top Pick Golf Resorts

You cannot book a golf holiday to the Costa Blanca and fail to consider La Finca Golf Spa Resort as one of your places to stay.

The main restaurant serves local Mediterranean cuisine, and there are a café and pool bar to keep you refreshed throughout the day.
Bonalba
To the north of Alicante, you will find Bonalba Golf Resort, and this is another fantastic place to stay during a Costa Blanca golf holiday. Here you will find a stunning hotel offering a range of rooms from deluxe to suites plus themed rooms for those looking for something different. The resort boasts a large outdoor swimming pool, tropical gardens, buffet restaurant, café lounge and much more to enjoy.
Which Courses do we recommend?
La Finca
Both the resorts above feature their golf courses, and La Finca Golf is home to not one but three golf courses. You could spend a week at this resort taking on the various challenges posed by each golf course, but if you were to play just one, you should try Villamartin. This course has been part of the European Tour, and you will be following in the footsteps of Ian Woosnam, Jose Maria Olazabal and the great Seve Ballesteros. The generous greens and beautiful views make Villamartin a top choice.
Las Colinas
Just 30 minutes away from this golf course towards the coast you will find another one of Costa Blanca’s gems in Las Colinas Golf. This golf course has won many awards, including Spain’s Best Golf Course’ at the 2017 World Golf Awards. The undulating nature of the fairways and greens, high-quality bunkering, world-class course conditioning and selection of tee boxes, make this a must-play when in the Costa Blanca.
