1. Top Courses
Las Colinas Golf & Country Club near Orihuela Costa is regularly voted one of Spain’s best courses, with beautifully landscaped fairways winding through rolling terrain. Villamartín and Campoamor, both on the southern coast, are perennial favourites with visiting golfers.
La Finca and Algorfa offer excellent value, while Vistabella is a well-maintained course popular with expats. Further north, Don Cayo in Altea offers dramatic mountain views, and Bonalba near Alicante city is a reliable all-round course with good practice facilities.
For a multi-course trip, the Orihuela Costa area alone has five courses within 15 minutes of each other — Villamartín, Campoamor, Las Ramblas, Las Colinas and Lo Romero.
2. Green Fees & Deals
Green fees range from €40 at municipal courses to €120 at premium venues. Twilight rates (after 14:00 or 15:00) can cut the cost by 30–50%. Many courses sell multi-round passes, and booking through local golf agencies often includes transport from your accommodation.
Electric buggy hire is typically €25–35 per round. Club hire is available at most courses for €20–40 per set. Pre-booking online is always cheaper than paying at the clubhouse.
3. Best Time to Play
October through May is prime golf season — temperatures are comfortable (16–26 °C) and courses are in peak condition after the autumn rains. July and August are playable but hot; early morning tee times (before 09:00) are essential in summer.
The driest months are June–August. Winter golf (December–February) offers the best green fee deals and the courses are quiet, though you may need a light jacket in the morning.
4. Golf Accommodation
Many villas on the Orihuela Costa are within walking distance of a course. Resorts such as Las Colinas and La Finca include on-site accommodation. OceanHome has a selection of golf-adjacent holiday rentals with private pools — ideal for groups who want to walk to the first tee.
For larger golf groups, a four-bedroom villa with a pool on the Orihuela Costa is the most popular option — central to multiple courses and with plenty of space for relaxing between rounds.
