There are nearly 60 golf courses in Andalucia, with over 30 on the Costa del Sol between Malaga and Gibraltar. Courses are pleasantly playable all year round (although wise golfers avoid the heat of the day in high summer) With over three hundred days of sunshine each year the region has long been a firm favourite with golfers of all ability levels, from all parts of the world - as anyone who has ever witnessed the way sets of clubs almost outnumber suitcases on the carousels at Malaga airport will already know!

The climate here is defined by the warmth of the air and lack of extreme atmospheric weather. This is due to the fact that the length of the Costa del Sol is sheltered by elevated mountainous regions - the sierras of Mijas, Alpujata and Blanca - which act as a protective screen against the affects of the colder northern winds.

Apart from offering such a warm climate the mountains, slopes and valleys provide a wonderful scenic backdrop to the game, this is especially evident on some of the famous courses in the Valle de Golf (Golf Valley) in Neuva Andalucia near Puerto Banús (You will find Aloha Gardens situated in the very heart of this region) With over 40 courses within a 45 minute drive of the apartment it really is the perfect base for your golfing holiday.

 Golf enthusiasts will be able to find a complete variety of courses ranging from the technical and demanding, with challenging lakes and bunkers, to the straightforward with wide easy fairways.
