Severiano Ballesteros, Howard Clark, Ernie Ells and Jose Maria Olazabal.
This is the oldest of the three local golf courses and is really
breathtaking in its beauty. Playing over undulating fairways to well
protected greens, no two holes are alike on this superb course.

Campoamor is not as
hazardous as Villamartin, but it is the most panoramic of the courses in
the region. The expansive fairways, excellent greens and lakes deceive
the player somewhat, making this a long and testing course with six
"dog legs" to keep you on your toes. The beautiful Club House
of Campoamor, which is quite new, offers the golfer, local resident bars
and the restaurant, spectacular views overlooking the lush green
fairways.
The layout of this
course has been adapted both to the professional player and the amateur.
The fairways are wide and long but the greens and the inclination of the
fairways are the big challenges.

Las Ramblas will
challenge you, requiring accuracy from tee to green. It has a lush
maturity, testimony to the wonderful climate and the care and attention
that has been lavished on it.
From this beautiful
elevated scenic area, with breathtaking views to the coast, this
beautiful course offers, to both golfers and non-golfers, natural
countryside and other sporting recreational facilities. As the name
suggests, a wonderful rambling course through valleys and over rugged
terrain with the occasional water hazard, an excellent challenge!
