The Alenda Golf Club is situated very close to the Sierra de las Aguilas mountains and the sea, and this location means it has a pleasant climate. It is an 18-hole course, with a gentle, undulating and varied round. It is very entertaining for players of all levels, and you will really need to use all of your clubs. It’s quite a quick round, as all of the holes are linked together and the walks from green to tee are short.
The first nine holes are medium length and favour the accurate player over the big hitter. The holes are easy to play and the fairways are very wide, which helps on the tee shots.
The back nine holes require more concentration, because this is the technical part of the course where accuracy is more important than distance. You have to be careful on the 16th and 18th, as these are the two holes which will decide the final result on your score card.
The greens give a special character to the course because the slopes allow for a wide variety of flag positions and you will need to visualise the break very clearly when putting and hit the ball with just the right amount of “oomph” if you want to hole out in good orde
