Levante Golf Course
Overview
The Levante Golf Course at Villaitana Golf Club is a golf course located in Benidorm, Spain, on the beautiful Costa Blanca. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, this par-72 course is 6,576 meters (7,193 yards) long. It features a classic American-style design with wide fairways, smartly placed bunkers, and large, rolling greens. Surrounded by the stunning Sierra de Finestrat mountains and offering beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea, the Levante Course is both visually impressive and a fun challenge for golfers of all levels.
Course Layout
The Levante Course is designed to be friendly at the start, but it gets trickier as you get closer to the greens. You’ll find water hazards on several holes, and the raised greens mean you need to choose your clubs wisely and plan your approach carefully. The first nine holes help golfers settle in and find their rhythm. However, the back nine is more challenging, requiring better shots and smarter course management.
Standout Holes
One of the most memorable holes is the par-4 7th, known for its stunning views and smartly placed bunkers. The par-5 14th is also a standout feature, where players need to be careful to avoid water while trying to reach the green in the right number of strokes. The final hole is a long par-4 with water on the right side, making it a challenging finish that rewards those who are accurate and brave.
