Why Not Stay On A Golf Resort For Your Holiday?

Many people that look for holidays in Spain are now booking it all themselves. flight, apartment, villa or farmhouse and car hire. There has been an increase in this type of holidaymaker in recent years; almost 30% of all holidays to Spain are now DIY. Too many visitors are fed up with returning home from their package holiday with illness and complaints about the hotel or the package holiday company.

So what sort of property is being sought after by this growing multitude of DIY holidaymakers? The range is massive. Depending on size of the group travelling they could be staying in 4 or 5 bedroom villas, 3 bedroom apartments or in rustic farmhouses that have been renovated.

But what has all this got to do with golf resorts? For some reason non-golfers tend to stay away from booking a holiday on a golf resort. Yet they offer a great selection of accommodation; from villas and townhouses to apartments; from one bedroom to 6 bedrooms. Many of the resorts are not far from the beaches. The vast majority of people that book a DIY holiday also rent a car so getting around is much easier. Most of the golf courses are within a ten minute drive from the beach. Many of the properties are cheaper than beach-side properties. Some of course are more expensive, particularly penthouse apartments in the Marbella and Puerto Banus area. But like anywhere, generally speaking the more you pay the higher the quality of the accommodation and the golf resort.

Listed here are just a few of the numerous golf resorts in Southern Spain. Stretching from near Gibraltar in the west to Denia in the east. Most offer facilities other than golf so the non golfer can have an equally great stay as the golfer. To the west of the Costa del Sol is Costa Esuri golf Resort. A magnificent new resort that offers a host of activities. With the Portuguese and Spanish Algarve close by what a great place to stay.

Los Arqueros golf Resort is only 10 minutes from Marbella. It was the first golf course to be designed by Severiano Ballesteros. They offer a whole range of activities other than golf. Including saunas, gym, tennis, swimming pools, restaurant etc. Los Naranjos in Nuevas Andalucia near Marbella is one of Spains best golf courses.

Staying on a golf resort also opens up many others opportunities to do things apart from the beach every day. As many of them are a little inland they offer incite into life away from the beach. A short drive in any direction apart from towards the sea will find you in a small village with its quant little bars. Staying on a golf resort can offer an opportunity explore parts of Spain that far too many are unfamiliar with. Remember you DO NOT have to be a golfer to stay on a golf resort.
