Golf Courses at La Cala Golf Resort

Campo America Golf Course

La Cala’s Campo America Course contains some truly spectacular holes. These include the par 5s at 6, 9 and 18, and the quite remarkable par 3 at 16. The hilly topography on which the course sits means the course presents a stern test, with plenty of forced carries over steep brush-covered side slopes. Nearly three quarters of the greens are raised above the level of the fairways too, adding yet another challenge for golfers.

In addition, the greens present small targets for which to aim at and are well protected by strategic bunkering, demanding accurate and well-judged shots on the approach. However, the Campo America course is made a slightly easier driving course than Campo Asia with its wide, linked fairways and relatively small number of bunkers allowing a more generous margin for error.

As a championship course located at the foot of the Mijas Mountains, Campo America’s international status is also enhanced by spectacular views to the Sierra de Ojén and Mediterranean Sea.

Signature Hole   – No. 16: Par 3, 135 yards (White Tees)

Despite being stroke index 17, the spectacular scenery at the short, 135 yard par 3 makes for a memorable hole. The elevated tee overlooks the whole property and the panoramic view extends over the pond in front of the green, past the putting surface and all the way to the coast which is several miles away.

Campo Asia Golf Course

Despite being the oldest of the three La Cala courses, Campo Asia is still well respected by golfers, and for many it is seen as the toughest test at the resort. Its layout is even hillier, the fairways tighter and the bushes more impenetrable than the neighbouring Campo America course, which already offers a sizeable challenge. In this respect, the course certainly puts a premium on accuracy and control.

While providing a tougher test off the tees, the course maintains similar elevation changes to that on the hilly America course, with strategic greenside bunkers in place at many of the raised putting surfaces.

The four par 5s, with the exception of the 1st, are all reachable in two for longer hitters, but golfers should beware of the concealed contours on the greens and the water that lurks on a couple of the holes. Sometimes less can be more when it comes to the second shots here!

The four short holes on the course are between 160 and 185 yards long, with three of them played from elevated tees to greens of terrific variety. This exciting course will guarantee a testing round for golfers of all abilities.

Signature Hole   – No. 11:  Par 3, 170 yards (White Tees)

Campo Asia offers many fantastic holes and after a straight-jacketing front nine, the back nine provides no let up. The par 3 at 11 is one of the most spectacular holes on the resort. The hole provides golfers with unforgettable panoramic views of the whole resort, Mijas village and Mediterranean.

Green 4,014 metres SSS 67.1

Campo Europa Golf Course

The Campo Europa course provides an easier game for the average golfer, with generous fairways, flatter terrain and slightly larger greens than Campo America and Asia. However, the presence of excellent bunkering throughout and the appearance of the idyllic Ojen River on eight of the holes ensure that your course management cannot afford to be too relaxed.

Signature Hole   – No. 14: Par 3, 254 yards (White Tees) 

14 of the 18 holes are visible from the tees, as golfers can also enjoy the fantastic views of the surrounding mountains and resort. At one point players must cross the river over an impressive 45m bridge and there are four other smaller bridges along its banks around the course as well. Campo Europa’s course is a fine addition to the resort, and is by no means a poor third, but rather a more manageable proposition for higher handicappers and perhaps beginners looking for a more relaxed test of golf.

At the maximum limit of distance for a par 3, the 14th not only presents a lengthy tee shot, but a perilous one too. A long carry is needed over river and scrub, leaving little margin for error.

Practice Facilities

La Cala’s practice facilities include a six hole Par 3 course which is a great place for those who wish to practice the short game, or for beginners who may not yet feel prepared for the championship courses. The course doesn’t lack quality either, and its unique par 3 designs gives cause for its ranking as the best par 3 design on the Costa del Sol.

The short game practice facilities are located adjacent to the golf club house, where a large putting green, separate chipping and putting areas with two bunkers.

Clubhouse

La Cala’s clubhouse is designed in a traditional Andulacian style and is a buzzing hive of activity.

Overall we as a party of eight was very pleased but, always a but, so we did find the breakfast variety good, however the hot food was never hot but Luke warm, saving grace was the chef cooking fresh omelettes for you. And a warning to other golfers to keep your golf travel bag zipped up if leaving it out on the veranda, as I did not and on leaving to pack my golf bag away into the travel bag, a sizeable rat popped out and had a nightmare trying to get it out of the room, eventually did via the front door, not the best experience but can you blame the hotel for that !.

The three courses were as challenging as expected and amongst 16 of mixed ability golfers over three rounds we lost 168 balls with notable differences between courses! the courses are all well maintained and we had no trouble with directions buggies etc only our own deficiencies!

We had a wonderful holiday and the hotel is in a fabulous location. My only negative would be that the rooms appear to be different in size and it is pot luck as to which one you get. Last year we had a suite with a full kitchen and large balcony. This year it was much smaller with a small mini bar for a fridge that struggled to hold a large bottle of water. On the whole though, we would travel back.

The room was good and the Housekeepers did a good job. We had a lovely verandah overlooking the 18th hole of Asia course. So we were lucky in that sense. However the really big disappointment and it is a basic one, was that the food was sub standard. The quality was poor, very little in the way of fresh vegetables so most dishes were bland and stodgy. We were very surprised at this. Even the mushrooms at breakfast were just simply out of a tin. The Spa was nice and we used it frequently so this is definitely a plus. Two good tennis courts which we did not use but in good condition. Some games such as pool and darts and table tennis which were used by us as we were a father and son pair. However again small details let the resort down. Table tennis board above the squash court so when the ball is hit off the table, it often goes down into the aerobics or squash court area! Two minute break to go downstairs to retrieve the ball. The darts board and pool table in reception have no illumination? In summary the resort is in a nice location with great views to the mountains. The golf, which was the main aim of the stay, was not as advertised. Some of the holes on Americas and Asia are like crazy golf" - so steep with elevated greens that average golfers take far too long to play a hole. Due to this and the sub standard food, we would never book a holiday at La Cala again.

I have stayed at this resort over 20 time now with both corporate trips that I host and also with my wife & friends...I always get looked after and the staff never fail to make sure that my guests get a great level of service during their stay

America Course

Favourite hole: The first is a stunning hole with an elevated tee shot onto the Par 5 fairway that moves left to right....so as a left hander with a fade it is always a daunting start to the round.
My favourite hole on the front 9 has to the 6th hole when it's played off the back tees (Whites for us mere mortals) that brings the carry over the "mess" into play and then leaves you with the choice of hitting your second shot to the bottom of the hill or trying to land your ball on one of the very small flat areas half way up the slope....wherever you do land your second shot the 3rd to the elevated green very often can catch out even the better golfers due to a misjudgement of distance - the front bunker saw some activity from our group On the back 9 then it has to the 18th with a 90degree dogleg teasing people to take on the corner and get round onto the very steep slope....you have to hit a long ball to get there so aim straight is my advice.....then you have a fantastic view back towards the hotel complex and also the Europa & America courses

My caddy tip: "Always allow enough club when you are hitting to an elevated green"

Stableford score: 34

Handicap: 11

Asia Course

I do like the 4th as if you get your tee shot away it catches the down slope over the bunkers and leaves you with the temptation, should you be long enough off the tee, to have a go at the green in 2 on what is a reachable Par 5....however if you are not straight then water awaits you on the left of the green...a great risk & reward hole
The best view on the course can be had on the 11th hole when you stand on an elevated tee box to this Par 3...to your left is a great view of the hotel and then in front of you is a superb panoramic view of the Europa course with the beautiful mountain range as it's backdrop.....plus as if it couldn't get any better in the distance you can see the coastline and beyond that the Sierra Nevada mountains

My caddy tip: "It's a relatively short course on most holes for the better golfer so hit long irons off the tee and in particular on the hole that have a blind tee shot"

Europa Course

Whilst it is my favourite course at La Cala from a layout of the holes prospective I typically don't score that well on this one as it doesn't favour my "Power fade" a as a Leftie - a lot of the fairways tilt right to left and off the fairway is not good on this course As a challenge the very tough 4th hole has to be a stand out hole for me...if you play it off the normal yellow tee box before crossing the first bridge over the ravine then it's a daunting tee shot to what looks like a very narrow fairway with nothing but trouble left and not much good on the right.....if you do hit the fairway then you still have to go back over the same ravine with your 2nd shot...it can be a long hole if you don't get far enough down the fairway but for me it's a case of keeping in play and hoping to get a 5 on my card!!!

My caddy tip: "If you are playing as a group then agree that the "scrub" is a lateral hazard and take a penalty drop accordingly as hitting a second shot off the tee could make it a very long round for not only your group but those behind you"

Your Golf Travel’s organisation for our recent holiday to La Cala was excellent and from pick up at the airport to drop off back there at the end of the trip, we did not encounter one single problem.

For our group of 12 golfers La Cala was superb, with three really great courses (which suited all levels of our group) all on site so no transfers were needed to and from the courses, making it very convenient indeed. The hotel and accommodation was top value with extremely helpful and friendly staff, and it was nice to relax around the pool after each round.

The Hotel prices were reasonable, but it was only a €15 cab ride into town each night and it was nice to sample some of the very good local restaurants.

All in all it was a great experience, and from the feedback of all of our group, I’ve no doubts you will be hearing from us soon to book another golf holiday for next year.

Lovely 30 minute drive from airport into the hills. On arrival the hotel looks and feels classy. If you can choose try to get a top floor room to enjoy the wonderful mountain views. We had a lower floor room but still enjoyed the tranquillity of the 18th fairway and wedding venue view. Breakfast was very nice with multi choice European food. The golf whilst sometimes intimidating, was very scenic and had great quality. Some holes seemed out of Jurassic park but were totally enjoyable. We ate a few evening meals at the hotel and they were fine. However, we discovered a local family owned a eatery about a mile down the road to the left and it was fantastic. Would I go back to la Cala? Yes.

The three courses are all brilliant, a real test especially for high handicappers like me. The main tip for a newcomer would be, keep it on the fairway, even at the expense of distance, because the rough is, well, er....rough! The greens are well maintained for a course in constent use, and very fast. I can't imagine any golfer not enjoying these courses. The hotel is well managed, the only slight niggle is the main restaurant which is beautifully set in a courtyard but very expensive, and the food is not exceptional. There are no restaurants nearby that do not require a taxi ride to reach them.

The three courses at La Cala all have their own special characteristics, with spectacular scenery from almost every hole being the one common factor. The Asia Course is a fairly tight, unforgiving 18 holes and needing a fair supply of balls for the average player to complete, I stopped keeping score at Asia after the first 9.

America is a very pleasant, friendlier 18 and the Europe Course has some really good testing holes. This one let me note my best score ever, 60 net.

Many holes at La Cala have considerable height variations. La Cala gives players at all levels a good test of their abilities. The course when we were there was well maintained with both fairways and greens good.

We really enjoyed the golfing experience, being picky the only negative point being the bunkers filled with grit instead of sand.

The hotel had very friendly and helpful staff, rooms were pretty average but acceptable. There is a very good selection of wellness facilities, mostly included in the room price; a really nice place to hang out and relax after a round of golf!

Breakfast was the culinary highlight of the day and was very, very good indeed. However, disappointingly this wasn't the same in the restaurant at lunch or dinner – a very limited menu, slightly expensive and in our experience poor quality. We quickly decided that lunch and dinner outside of the hotel would be preferable.

There are many tourist restaurants in the local town at the coast just a 10 minute drive away but just two minutes from the hotel there's a very good restaurant which we often frequented.

Car hire is so very cheap in Spain, and we’d highly recommend this to have the freedom of your own.

La Cala is an experience we are intending to repeat in the near future.

La Cala America and Asia were as good as usual but Europa's greens had just been dressed and some of the mens' tees were forward especially the signature holes which was a little disappointing. Only had a coffee in the clubhouse before play on the first day as we tended to have lunch and drinks we had stocked up on in our apartment, afterwards.

Had a result on the last round when the senior lady receptionist in the pro shop acceded to my request for a free buggy for being a good customer.

Overall La Cala is a top venue and you only get what you pay for.

On behalf of our group I would like to thank YGT for organising an amazing golfing holiday for us. The La Cala resort was spectacular. We were fortunate enough to play all 3 courses which were all in fantastic condition. The layout of the holes were amazing and having a variety of tees for different abilities ensured all our party from low to high handicappers enjoyed the experience. We cannot decide which of the courses we enjoyed the most as they were all so varied with spectacular views. The thing we were most impressed with was the friendliness of the staff. On previous trips we have felt under pressure from rangers pushing us and hurrying us even if we couldn't go any quicker due to the groups in front!! However in La Cala we had a lovely reception on the first tee and the rangers came round to ask us if we were enjoying our round and if there was anything they could do for us- so refreshing.

On completion of our round we ate at the club house where they was a lovely and reasonably priced menu. We then retired to the spa which was fantastic. With a complementary 90 mins a day in the large outdoor and indoor bubble pools we felt so relaxed.

We ate in the hotel for 2 evenings and down in La Cala town for 2 nights, a taxi is just 13 euros into the town.

The rooms were adequate but had lovely large balconies where sat out at night which was a nice bonus.

The transfers from the airport organised by YGT were great. They were there waiting for us and helped with the luggage. The drivers were really friendly and gave us lots of information about the area.

Overall this has been our favourite golf resort and we have been going as a group for the last 7 years. We would definitely return and would highly recommend for any group wanting great golf and good service.

We would also be more than happy to recommend YGT. I certainly won't be using anyone else to organise my holidays. As the group organiser it was hassle free and so easy. Thank you.

Just a brief note to say thanks for organising our recent trip to La Cala. The logistics worked brilliantly, and everything went to plan – flights, transits and the hotel, which was up to it's usual standards. Just to cap things off beautifully the weather was brilliant.

I almost felt guilty accepting the compliments from the guys for organising the trip.

I have vowed I will not organise another trip. Leaving everything to you to organise was a breeze, but trying to get 7 grown up men to provide their details and money always proves to be a challenge.

I know you do this for a living but would just like to let you know what a first class job you do. The fact our last trip went like clockwork ensured I came back to you this time. I have already told the guys that whoever (assuming there is another mug amongst us) organises next year's trip would be mad not to use you.
