Anoreta Golf

This was the first course designed by Jose Maria Cañizares, famous for his exploits in the Ryder cup. He has created an interesting challenge and is obviously much taken with water - itfigures on eleven of the the holes. Examples are the par 4 eighte, with a dogleg plus a lake on the right of the fairway, and the seventeenth, a memorable hole with water on three sides of the green.

Anoreta Golf Course is the only 18-hole course situated on the eastern part of the Costa del Sol. It was the first course to be designed by the ex-Ryder Cup player, Jose Maria Canizares, and it opened, originally with nine holes, in 1990. A further nine holes added later. From Añoreta’s elevated position above the coastline there are some terrific views over the Mediterranean Sea.

This is an attractive course, in which the tree-lined fairways, lush vegetation and abundance of water help to enhance its natural beauty. Water is an important feature of the Añoreta course and comes into play on no less than eleven of the holes, while the maturing trees provide golfers with some welcome shade during the hot summer months.

Most of the fairways are wide and quite easy to play, although the fast greens are often well-protected by water and bunkers. All these obstacles help to make Añoreta a more challenging course, albeit one which is suitable for all levels of golfer. There are fantastic views of the sea from the tee at the huge 3rd (par 5), which measures over 500 metres, while more panoramic vistas can be enjoyed at the short 7th (par 4), which has a lake in the middle of the fairway. One of the trickiest and most spectacular holes is the 8th (par 4) which features a right dogleg and a large lake on the left-hand side, although the signature hole at Añoreta is probably the 17th (par 3), on which the green is surrounded by water on three sides.

In conclusion, Añoreta is a very pleasant and enjoyable course, with a nice variety of holes. You are likely to end up using most, if not all of the clubs in your bag. This is a soft spikes only course.
