La Finca Resort

In Algorfa, in the southern part of Alicante province on the Costa Blanca, La Finca Resort brings together a five-star hotel, spa and two 18-hole golf courses in one easy-going base for a golf break. La Finca Golf and Villamartín Golf provide the rounds, while the 120-room hotel gives you a choice from Deluxe rooms through to Junior and Royal Suites. Spacious private terraces look towards the fairways, pool or gardens, so there is usually somewhere quiet to sit with a drink once the clubs are away. Days away from the course can include the outdoor pool, where Balinese beds and sun loungers set a slower pace, or a game of tennis or padel.

The golf facilities make it practical to arrive, warm up and get straight into the holiday. There is a driving range, putting greens, chipping area and practice bunker, alongside an academy for players looking to work on a particular part of their game. At both courses, the caddie master, bag drop, club hire, manual trolleys and GPS buggies take care of the usual logistics. La Finca Golf also holds GEO Certified recognition, reflecting work on environmental resources, climate action and the surrounding community. After the round, each clubhouse has a snack menu and looks across its own course. La Finca Club House is beside La Finca Golf’s 18th hole, with an outdoor terrace extending beyond 250 square metres. Its menu runs from salads and sandwiches to pizzas and the house burger.

Back at the hotel, the gym offers another option between tee times, with sports equipment available to borrow subject to availability. La Finca Spa has treatment rooms for massages and other therapies, plus changing facilities and lockers. The water circuit, which includes an indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna and Turkish bath, is temporarily unavailable because of technical work, although spa treatments remain bookable. Free outdoor parking, a 24-hour reception and free Wi-Fi keep the practical side of the stay pleasantly simple.
