Mar Menor Village Golf Resort
Mar Menor Village Resort is situated a short drive inland form Los Alcazares in the Costa Calida. It started off as a 9 hole course but has now been extended to 18 holes. The course is designed around the popular commercial complex and stunning 5 star hotel. The distinctive coloured houses that border the fairways offer great definition to each hole. The water and sand hazards add to the overall charm of this course. Opportunity to enjoy a 19th hole can be found in the hotel itself or over the road in the commercial centre opposite, both venues offer great ambience and views of the course.
