Villa Padierna Golf Club is set amidst gentle green hills and caressed by the breeze of the Mediterranean Sea, its magnificent facilities pay tribute to the game and delight with peerless service and genuine hospitality. The three 18-hole courses have been designed to be challenging and pleasurable for golfers of all ages and abilities.
An exceptional drainage system allows immediate resumption of play after rain but with an average of 320 days of sunshine a year on the Costa del Sol hoping it doesn't rain is not something golfers have to worry about.
Flamingos has played host to the European Senior & Ladies European Tours. With undulating greens and enveloping views of the Mediterranean, it has become an epitome of big-time golf on the Costa del Sol. The Alferini course provides a wide variety of natural features and hazards while the short Tramores course serves up a great deal of fun and enjoyment, a highly attractive option to hone your short game, and equally suitable for junior golfers, beginners and time-strapped golfers.
With unforgettable Mountain and sea-views, a round at Villa Padierna Golf Club is a top-choice when playing golf in this area of Spain.

Flamingos Golf is the original layout at the resort, and measures 6,248 yards. The par-71 course was designed by Antonio Garrido, formerly a prominent European Tour player and now an established architect.
The fairways are lined by a beautiful variety of trees, while visiting golfers will no doubt enjoy the stunning views over the Mediterranean Sea. The greens are large and undulating throughout, but the front nine is certainly the toughest, where the narrow fairways demand good accuracy and control.

Opened in October 2007, Alferini is an outstanding par-73 that insiders believe will surpass the original Flamingos layout, and will underline the resort's internationally renowned status. Measuring 7,260 yards from the back tees this course will be more than a match for the big hitters while not unplayable for others thanks to multiple sets of tees.
Like the other golf courses situated on the Villa Padeirna resort, Alferini offers breathtaking views thanks to its location in a beautiful valley, away from the hustle and bustle of the modern world. Although this course is reasonably long it would be described as many as a technical layout. Two lakes and a stream place an emphasis on precision rather than power and club selection will have to be spot on in order to safely negotiate the subtle elevation changes.

Tramores is the shortest of the 3 Antonio Garcia Garrido courses in the area, measuring just 3,792 yards from the tips. Although the course is very short by modern standards, its par of 63 makes it somewhat of a challenge. Because of its technical layout it will favour the accurate rather than the bold. The longer hitters however, will still get the odd opportunity to ‘give it a ride’ with the driver.
This course is ideal for parents with children or those just starting out in the game, as well as more experienced players who are pushed for time or just looking for a more relaxing golfing experience. There is also an American Golf Academy which provides premium practice facilities in which to get a lesson or just hit some balls.

The worst course of the week! Greens were poor and some ‘mickey mouse’ holes in the group’s opinion. Not a course we would revisit.

Welcome: - Distinctly lacking. We were the last to tee off and it felt like they didn’t want us there. - They closed the warm up range (which was sold as a nice perk as everyone playing the course had the opportunity to warm up there). - The guy on the reception didn’t even look up as we approached. Trying to obtain the keys for the buggies was way more complicated than needed, just a grunt and here they are. - We came straight from the airport so we’re assured there were lockers available, this wasn’t the case. Most had no keys so we just had to risk it. - post the round, we simply couldn’t get a drink as they prioritised the hotel guests and ignored us, so we just left! Course: - really varied but narrow! There had been heavy rain the day before and the greens were not in a good state, but to be expected.

You will be almost alone if you play here. Flamingos course is packed but Alferini has fearsome reputation and is empty. The 1st + 2nd confirm that reputation, very hard holes. It is easier up on the plateau but almost all greens are elevated and guarded by mahoosive bunker. Okay if you bomb 290 yds off tee otherwise, yep, hard. Closing few holes super hard. Proper big boys course. Unfortunately fairways were goat track dry and not good condition otherwise good and lovely club house.

Not as good as we expected; course was in OK condition but lacked the finesse of the other courses we played.
