Re: Best golfcourses within a 30 km.radius from Ayamonte

Sure it is, the poll is for all to vote for, in their opinion, the best golfcourse.
You can consider pricing, state of the course, service, views, location, challenge, boredom, food from the restaurant, whatever you fancy. |

I've played many a time at Quinta Cima/Ria, the problem I have with them is that they always have too much water on the fairways and often the ball plugs, simply that course wouldn't survive in the UK as it would be water logged due to the type of land its on!! but good layouts though!! Interesting that Olivia doesn't mention Quinta do Vale, once they get the course in top condition and get the greens and bunkers right, it will be one of the toughest tests on the Algarve. Lots of people don't rate it as they can't get round it, therefore, making it a poor course and thats why CE is so good, how many times can you play the same hole so differently ie 2nd on CE drive wedge one day and the next drive 3 iron I could go on but would probably start to bore you!! |

Interesting though isnt it. Esuri/Ayamonte sits right in the middle of a block of good courses from the course at Huelva Aljaraque (where the railway engine roundabouts are) through Nuevo Portil and Rompido and going on to Esuri, Isla canela and then the courses on the Portuguese side. All within good travelling distance up and down our motorway. Cant wait!

Good idea to have a poll Jur, I think with the Costa Esuri debate its really if you understand golf, BOTH courses are tough and varied dependent on the weather. I don't believe that the I've played with any single figure handicap or pro that believe that theses courses are boring, yes there are a couple of silly holes on the new course, but with a little bit of re shaping and tlc you'll have another testing challenge.

I´m guessing that a golfcourse is a personal experience for everyone. Just agree to disagree! Woops, realised I forgot the El Portil course! Sorry. |

Excellent idea to have a poll.
I'll go for the 2 most challenging courses: Costa Esuri (of course) and Quinto do Vale. |

Good to hear from you Chris, and welcome to the forum.

Hi. Thanks.

Jur,
Why did you not include Islantilla in your list as it it closer than some of the others? |

Re: Best golfcourses within a 30 km.radius from Ayamonte
i have only played ria and cima.
however further to the golf deal i got earlier this week www.yourgolftravel.com have now beaten it with 3 nights HB at Islantilla golf hotel with 4 days unlimited golf at Islantilla for £119!!!! I can never remember prices being this cheap. So my initial question in that other thread was about Isla Canela but now I am more interested what people think of Islantilla. Its a 27 hole setup so should be more interesting over 4 days than an 18 hole track. |

Hi, for what it's worth, as far as I remember Islantilla, the trick is to avoid the aapartments nearly on the fairway. Never liked the course. (personal opinion). For a good deal AND very good service, we always book with golfdelaluz.com Never had a problem with them, and recently had to delay our departure and with no travel insurance.. no problem for them though, we just have to warn them when we can go, and they will rebook everything. We were very impressed. Look on their side under hotel + golf deals. (no connections with them). Good booking and golf Anne:) |
