La Duquesa Golf

Designed by legendary course architect Robert Trent Jones and opened in 1985, La Duquesa's 18 hole course wraps itself around the El Hacho Hill overlooking the picturesque marina of Puerto de la Duquesa and with views of the Costa del Sol, Mediterranean and North Africa.

Duquesa Golf is one of the most varied and spectacular courses on the Costa del Sol. This 6,717 yard par 72 course with it's 5 par 3s; 8 par 4s; 5 par 5s, is enjoyable for players of all levels. The front nine holes are a real challenge with narrow fairways and good pin positions, whilst the back nine holes are a delight with wide fairways, interesting holes and stuning views of the Mediterranean.

After your game you can enjoy a wide range of food and drink in the clubhouse or sit outside on the beautiful sun-soaked terrace adjacent to the 18th green - a beautiful setting.

Like all golf courses on the Costa del Sol, if you are wanting a souvenir then take a look in the pro shop. Excellent value for money on clothes, golf equipment, etc.

Adjacent to the La Duquesa golf course is the 5-star Hotel Suites Duquesa Golf which has recently undergone a major refurbishment to extend and bring the facilities up to the high standards demanded by the discerning golfer. If you're like me and like to stay for a week on the grounds of the golf course, then this is for you. It does not mean that you have to play the same course over and over, but it is an ideal venue to make your base.

Besides golf, The Hotel Suites Duquesa Golf offers outdoor swimming pool, restaurant, bars, gymnasium, snooker, billiards, sauna, jacuzzi, sun terraces, tennis courts, squash courts, 18 hole par 72 golf course.
