Saurines Golf Course introduction

Desert styled and designed by Jack Nicklaus, this golf course is reminiscent of his designs in Las Vegas.

Saurines Golf Course information

18 holes, 72 par, 6498 yards. Desert.

This 18 hole, par 72 Jack Nicklaus designed golf course, is a desert-style golf course that has sandy dunes lining the fairways and yet a surprising lack of bunkers. The 6 acre lake near the 18th hole ensures the final stretch will test even the best golf players. New in 2010 and with the promise of immaculate condition, it really is one to add to your golf trip to Murcia.

El Valle Golf Course introduction

18-hole par 71 desert style course designed by Jack Nicklaus. Set in a desert valley, you have the impression of being in Arizona, with small dunes and elevated views over the desert. Fantastic!

El Valle Golf Course information

18 holes, 71 par, 6730 yards. Desert.

El Valle Golf, a medium length par71 golf course, is situated in a beautiful desert valley. The golf course has been created with grouped holes to offer a more open and natural golf experience and, rather than length, the course relies on numerous subtle strategic elements to challenge golfers. Players are rewarded for daring and courageous shots. El Valle features clusters of smaller, more subtly shaped bunkers and takes full advantage of its desert setting with numerous holes playing adjacent to naturally existing rock-outcroppings and ridges. Complemented with a number of water features, including two lakes and two elaborate stream and waterfall systems, this is the perfect course for developing any player's strategy.

Alhama Signature Golf Course introduction

Opened in December 2009, this is now the signature Jack Nicklaus golf course in the area.

Alhama Signature Golf Course information

18 holes, 72 par, 6909 yards. Inland.

Set in traditional Murcian landscape, including dramatic bunkering and smaller greens than usual for a Nicklaus course, this is the golf course you have been waiting for in the Nicklaus golf trail. At over 7,500 yards from the back tees, with a par of 72, this Championship layout is set to become one of the very best in the whole region. It also features 4 lakes and some noticeable changes in elevation, making it one of the best looking golf courses in all of Spain.

Hacienda Riquelme Golf Course introduction

18-holes par 72 Links style parkland golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. One of the newest additions, this course presents many challenges including wind, water and many bunkers. The course is relatively long, which makes it a very interesting test of golf

Hacienda Riquelme Golf Course information

18 holes, 72 par, 6416 yards. Links-style Parkland.

Hacienda Riquelme is a well structured 18 hole, par 72 golf course. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, this golf course offers a different challenge to the other courses on the Nicklaus golf trial. Hacienda Riquelme has been built to championship standards with difficult shots with plenty of bunker hazards, wild grass, olive trees and large lakes. It also has the novel feature of Paspalum grass to make golf more sustainable on a national level. This variety of grass has many similarities with the Bermuda grass, but it tolerates a high salinity in its irrigation water, as well as being resistant to drought and high temperatures. All in all, this golf course will be an exciting addition to any golf holiday to Murcia.
