Atalaya Golf & Country Club

Kind of Mickey Mouse type. Hitting middle of the fairway you find the ball rolling down to another one. Penalizing good shots. Bermuda grass making short game tough . Skipped last round.

Typical resort golf course

First time playing this course and really enjoyed it, the greens were excellent and will likey play it again on our next trip.

An inviting course, attractive, and a perfect 18 holes to start the tour since it is flat and forgiving. Excellent bar by the 18th green too.

A great course for holiday golf

Although short, it is very tight and very tilted, easy to lose balls unexpectedly. Great views, nice clubhouse.

Loved it

Rather short course

Same complex as the Old Course but a lot tighter. A few greens were a little damaged and stood out based on the Old Course. Great as an additional round as part of a golf weekend but would pick other courses over the New Course.

Great course and surroundings. Staff very welcoming throughout. Course is in great condition. Perfect for groups.

This course was certainly enjoyable - it was the last round of our trip and followed after Finca so was very different! The course was good and condition was too - lots of green staff at the time which was a good sign.

IT WAS OK

Loved the course & the design. Lots of variation with the course layout. Really enjoyed the golf.

It did get off to a bad start, the reason being that we thought that Yourgolftravel had provided transport too and from the golf courses in our package, unfortunately we had to pay for transportation ourselves! We thought that this course was probably more suitable for low handicappers, we found it a little too difficult for us the hilly and sloping terrain didn’t suit our capabilities, a lot of ball above and below our feet.

Played the new course, not too long but accuracy important. Spoiled by the course marshalls constantly on our case and insisted one group skipped a hole even though our groups were waiting.

Played there about 30 years ago and remembered some of the holes, still a very nice course. Pro shop very helpful on arrival.

Lovely course although very large as there are two courses together, that being said we played the new course and didn’t feel like we were ontop of the other course. Some challenging holes with narrow fairways and well placed bunkers

Very good

The course was in great condition, challenging in places but overall a really strong opener to our holiday. The greens just missed that slight love and care. The two real differences between this and the other courses was the welcome from the staff at Atalaya in the Pro Shop and the lack of a buggy bar or place to stock up on drinks at 9 holes. The bar staff were superb at the end of the round. 7/10 experience

Quirky course not presented very well with poor buggy tracks in places Blind holes and the greens were not very good- buggies are included- very necessary as it’s a very long walk from the clubhouse . practice facilities are a very long way from the clubhouse and need a buggy to get there

A good holiday golf challenge! Many different tees to choose from- walkable as reasonably flat

Very challenging even though short in places but good for a wide range of players. Greens need a bit of time and work.

A tight, tricky course with some interesting holes, only let down by the condition of the greens, they are not bad ( but not as good as the Old course at the same club ) great club house, lovely location, friendly staff, has a great halfway house , would recommend this course

No much troubling t to green, but the greens are very tricky, back 9 more interesting than the front 9, overall decent course but there are more interesting courses locally ( the new course at the same club, is a lot harder/ tricky and interesting )

Basically you’re local municipal . Clubhouse and restaurant are good.

Greens had been relayed recently and need a bit of time to mature.

Nice course new greens still had not grow properly so weren't very good

Enjoyed the couple they played with each time but unfortunately they didn't get to complete the last game as it was so slow.

Greens had just been tined, “Sand” used in bunkers which guarded every hole were very hard to play out, making it at times unenjoyable

Very hard course with the slope the ball for roll for a long time got my first ever eagle and I play off 24! Nice course really hard though !

Really nice course, a tough test in places with the slopes sometimes punishing good tee shots but quite a few short par 4s which is always good.

New course very well maintained, excellent greens with fantastic views. Undulating generous fairways with some elevation and plenty of water.

Just too tight and cramped in.

Better of the two courses, wider fairways & although two or three tricky holes a fairer & more forgiving course than the New Course

Very narrow fairways with anything offline ending up down steep banks.

This course was very difficult because the terrain was very steep on most of the holes. One of my group said it was rubbish layout.

Not a bad course. Could be difficult at times.

Large areas of most greens had relaid turf, cores inserted in bald areas

The greens were very poor, almost all had large areas of relaid turf and bare patches.

This course is tricked up and may challenge some higher handicappers. Lots of holes with no bail areas, which can be daunting. If you like plotting your way around a course, this one is for you. The greens looked worn out and some had areas where new turfs were still bedding in. Also looked like they had been over watered. A challenging course but fun.

A quality regular golfers course, enough to challenge you but not too difficult for higher handicappers. Well organised starters/Pro shop etc.

Very enjoyable course. But I needed to get used to the greens. Not the same as uk

Shortish but still demanding

Greens were poorer than the new course. Flat course, wide fairways, mainly uninteresting compared to the new course.

Highly undulating, hilly, raised greens and tees. Short par 4s, but difficult. One had to be able to be straight off the tees, or great trouble resulted. Not a course for beginners or less physically able

We played the new course which was in really poor condition.

Unfortunately the course was very wet underfoot.

Much easier course, nice set up

An afternoon tee off, we knew it would be tight with the light but the starter managed to get us off early so much appreciated. Lunch before and drinks after in the bar were good. We played the Blue course which was a tricky narrow course sculpted into a hillside. Some fanatic holes with a great sense of achievement when occasionally conquered. The course showed some signs of wear but still very playable and acceptable for the time of year. The Old course which you drive through to get to the 1st Tee looked to be the more premium course and in better condition.

Very good club, one of the few who seemed to have their act together.

The Old course was in good condition and a challenge as always

Fantastic. Nearly every shot was a blind one making for a fun and exciting round. Many of the fairways were sloped and if you hit the ball the wrong way, you were punished. Difficult greens needed to be thought about before commencing your putting. Would recommend the new course over the old.

The old course was good to play. Depending who you were coupled with in your 4 ball, you either enjoyed your round or struggled to communicate if English wasn't spoken. Games were slow, simple because of usage. This course is generally used more than the new.

We didn't get to play this course as information about the new times had not been passed on to us by YGT. We were given the option of waiting for the new time (3 hrs +) or being transferred to the New Course, which we opted for. Again a very hilly course and not one which I would have chosen for our group. There was a route march to the first tee.

We played Atalaya 4 times, always on time. The course was fantastic. Staff very helpful.

Having played here last year, we were disappointed with the conditions, to be fair there is a lot of building work going on, but the greens were the worst I’ve played on for some time, that’s not an excuse for my poor play, they were shocking. It’s a shame as this is a nice club with friendly staff.

Definitely play this course again not too difficult everyone enjoyed it. Well stocked pro shop with helpful staff.

Sorry to say, for us this was the worst course of the ones we played. It is well used and abused, the whole course was tired, the greens looked and played like a patch work quilt, we would have liked to have played another course rather than this one

buggies needed for this course , lots of blind holes and with being very hilly you had to guess as to where the green was , it has to be played twice to learn the layout of this course, the course is well maintained and the greens where in good condition for the time of the year { it was always busy ]
