Finca Cortesín Golf Club | |
| 18 holes championship golf course, designed by World famous golf course architect Cabell Robinson who worked many years for the Robert Trent Jones Group. The Finca Cortesín layout is simply spectacular, the main features are the length of the course and the great variety of it's natural vegetation which includes olive trees and corks. The 18 holes are very unique since every hole is completely different to the others which makes playing very enjoyable. Technically speaking, it is important to emphasize the following features: the Bermuda 419 Grass fairways are very Wide (up to 50mts), the bunkers are beautifully shaped and filled with white marble sand. Tee boxes are very high quality (every hole has several tee platforms so the player always finds them in perfect shape). Without doubt, the greens are one of Finca Cortesín jewels, they all have slight brakes and have the quality to be extremely fast. |
