Bonalba Golf Course, with 18 holes, a par of 72, and a total length of 6,367 meters (approx. 7,000 yards), was created, as many other golf courses in the tourist areas, as a part of an enterprising Real Estate Project with more than 3,000 houses (villas, apartments, detached and semi-detached houses…), developed by the Grupo Alicante Urbana.

Bonalba Golf Course is located close to the Mediterranean in the Municipality of Mutxamel, in Alicante (Spain).

The annual average temperature of 18 º C, together with being merely 2 km. away from the Playa de San Juan (San Juan Beach) make Bonalba an exceptional setting to play golf all year round, and also a preferential destination for the golf players of the North of Europe.

Notwithstanding the fact that it is one of the most recently created Golf Courses in the Comunidad Valenciana (Autonomous Community of Valencia), it already has a great number of visitors. It was opened on October 1995, and it receives more than 60,000 players each year; thus confirming that it is a Commercial Course, while, on the other hand, this also proves its quality. Relevant events have taken place here, such as the Final Round of the National Professional Golf Circuit in 97 and 98, the Spanish Junior and Boys Tournaments in the year 2000, as well as the Costa Blanca Challenge, and the European Challenge Tour that same year.

The variety of its vegetation, lakes and water hazards, its great number of bunkers and its wide greens arranged in an amusing design made by Ramón Espinosa make Bonalba an interesting and appealing challenge for the amateur golfer as well as for the professionals.

A slope rating of 132 on the yellow bars shows us the degree of difficulty of the course. The first 9 holes are quite technical, as the golfer has to avoid three of the five existent lakes, which play an important role in five of the first nine holes of the round. The three last holes of the first part of the round can spoil even the best score card, as they are the handicap 1 (par 4), 13 ( par 3), and 3 (par 4) in the course. These 3 holes have been called by the local golfers the "Amen Corner" of Bonalba.

The second 9 holes, being also quite technical, require a stronger stroke, they are holes where the dominant breeze from Levante makes it difficult to reach the green, normally forcing the golfers to use more "woods" than usual, especially on holes 16, 17, and 18, where the breeze blows right into the faces of the golfers.
