The Green Fees Spain - How Much Should You Pay?
By admin
Wherever you find yourself in the world playing golf, you will have to pay your green fees Spain, America, Great Britain or Australia, it’s the same everywhere. If you want to play the best golf courses, you will pay top dollar and the green fees can really start to blow a hole in your Spanish golf vacation budget. Added to that, if you need to rent equipment and you add in cart fees, you can easily spend a few hundred Dollars before you’ve even hit a ball.
Of all the places with golf resorts Spain is not cheap; if we take a look at the Costa del Sol (the most popular region in Spain for golf), at the high end you will pay upwards of $400 to play the championship quality course at Valderrama Golf Course. Among green fees Spain is not cheap. For your money though, you get to play one of the top ten courses in Europe and THE top course in Spain - but is it worth it? It’s a lot of money for one round of golf that’s for sure, but it is a magnificent course with immaculate elevated greens and lush tree-lined fairways and don’t forget, they held the Ryder Cup here in 1997.
You don’t need to spend a fortune however to play some good golf on the Costa del Sol, prices start at around $30 to play the Magna Marbella golf course and around $90 at the neighboring Marbella Country Club, a course designed by Robert Trent Jones Snr, the same person who designed the Valderrama course.
My personal favorite, and a course with reasonably price green fees for Spain, is the Lauro course situated inland in the municipality of Alhaurin de la Torre. It is in effect three different golf courses in one with the days 18 holes being chosen from the 27 that are available. Prices start at a reasonable $46 and each of the holes are named after a famous Spanish bullfighter.
You can see that green fees in Spain vary greatly from course to course, but if you shop around there are bargains to be found and some really outstanding games of golf to be played.
