Practice Your Golf On The Costa Del Golf -Costa Del Sol Golf Villas

The Mijas Golf Resort is placed just half an hours drive from Malaga airport. Take the Fuengirola Coin turn off from the motorway and follow the road called Camino Viejo de Coin. The course is about 3 and a half kilometers from the highway.

Mijas Golf has made a great effort to fill the needs of its many users who desires to play golf in Malaga on the Costa del Sol, and to that end, the course comes with all facilities. There is a practice area, buggy hire, manual and electric trolleys, putting green, bar-cafeteria, restaurant, shop, changing rooms, showers and parking. Furthermore, running throughout the grounds, there are places to buy water and other drinks plus toilets. There is also the option to participate in golf technique lessons.

Mijas Golf Resort offers two Golf Courses:

Los Olivos founded in 1983/84 & Los Lagos founded in 1976. Both courses are designed by Robert Trent Senior. The main feature which distinguishes Los Olivos from Los Lagos is the abundance of trees - hence the name - and its smaller size, as well as fewer water hazards. The greens are smaller, undulating and well defended. Although both are the work of the same designer, there is beyond doubt interesting contrasts between the two golf courses: if Los Lagos are based on challenges of water and sand, Los Olivos is strategic narrow tree lined fairways and elevated greens. Generally speaking the course favors the precision golfer rather than the big hitter.

Los Lagos is a ground course with wide fairways and a few forest trees obstacles, but is defended by many bunkers and nine lakes, from which the course gets its name and which easily trap the ball. It is a course with soft movement and large greens. You could say that the American designer wanted to present a course especially for beginners, but likewise, it can present a challenge for the best golfers. One of "Los Lagos" most characteristic and difficult holes is the par 5 thirteenth. Seen from elevated tees it looks deceptively easy but at the approach to the green there is water left and right, also beware of the hill as even a well hit shot is in danger of sending the ball into the water hazard. The 5th a 571 meter monster, is also "interesting". The course is just about free of rough and is practically flat except for a slight incline up the 18th hole.

There is an amazing selection of restaurants and bars within the golf resort, whilst the nearby town of Fuengirola also offers a range of restaurants, along with a cinema and a variety of shops.

The beautiful white pueblo of Mijas, famous for its donkey-drawn taxis, sits high atop the mountains with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and a number of municipalities of the Costa del Sol below. Within just a ten minute drive you will find some of the best rated beaches you can imagine, providing the ideal setting for peace and relaxation.

In between golfing there is no need to be bored as the Costa del Sol provides more activities than you can possibly manage & your Mijas Golf Villa offer comfortable relaxation by the pool.
