First opened in 1976, Golf Torrequebrada course in Benalmádena on Spain´s Costa del Sol was designed by José “Pepe” Gancedo, who has since designed many golf courses in Spain, the rest of Europe and the US. Considered by many to be one of the finest courses in Europe. Golf Torrequebrada enjoys a variety of fairway designs, combining lakes and mature semi-tropical vegetation with fabulous views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding mountains. Over 100 varieties of shrubs and trees line the course, where the more intrepid player can test his skill on every hole, whatever his handicap. The greens are notable for their size and speed and the strategically placed lakes and bunkers add to the course´s challenge and interest.
The clubhouse boasts panoramic views from its privileged location overlooking the 18th fairway, and provides all the modern facilities expected from a golf club of this category, including a superb bar-restaurant, driving range and pro-shop.
For golf holidays & breaks on the Costa del Sol the location couldn’t be more convenient. Transfers from Malaga international airport to Golf Torrequebrada take around 20 minutes. The ever popular Costa del Sol resorts of Torremolinos and Fuengirola are very close, and with the Torrequebrada Casino and the sporting leisure marina of Benalmádena and its famously vibrant nightlife right on the doorstep, the entertainment options are endless. Add to that the wide sandy beaches and pretty coves that you’ll find on this stretch of the coast, and you have the perfect recipe for an enjoyable and memorable golf holiday or break on the Costa del Sol.
