Alenda Golf Course
Overview
Alenda Golf Course is just 15 minutes from Alicante city and Alicante-Elche Airport. It is an 18-hole, par-72 championship layout designed by Roland Favrat in 1999. Spanning 6,257 meters from the back tees (5,743 m yellow, 5,037 m red), this course combines strategic design, stunning Mediterranean views, and a perfect balance of playability and challenge. It’s a favourite destination for golfers wanting an authentic Costa Blanca golf experience.
Course Layout and Challenges at Alenda Golf Course
Alenda Golf Course is characterised by its varied routing through valleys and terrain. The front nine demands precision, with numerous doglegs, bunkers, and water hazards that come into play on several holes. The back nine opens up slightly, offering wider fairways but introducing fast, undulating greens protected by deep pot bunkers and subtle slopes.
Focus on your iron play and practice thoughtful course management. Thick rough and natural Mediterranean vegetation often penalises wayward shots. With five tee options on every hole, the course caters to all skill levels while remaining an enjoyable yet demanding test for low-handicap players.
Signature Holes at Alenda Golf Course
The par-5 6th is widely regarded as the signature hole. A risk-reward masterpiece that tempts longer hitters to go for the green in two over a large lake guarding the entire left side. The par-3 13th, played from an elevated tee across a ravine to a well-bunkered green, delivers one of the most memorable views on the property. The closing stretch, particularly the par-4 17th and risk-reward par-5 18th, routinely decides tournaments and provides a thrilling finish.
