Golf Playa Serena is a flat course, of British design, offering views of the sea and running along the edge of the beach. There are no big slopes so the course is suitable for players of all levels. The fairways are wide but you have to watch out for the greens which are protected by water hazards and bunkers.
As you would expect from a links-style course, there is a wide variety of vegetation, and plenty of water hazards. Watch out for the par-5 13th where most players see their scorecards ruined.
