GMS Golf School in Southern Spain
Southwest Andalucia - On the Mediterrannean Sea
Almenara Golf Resort
In the South of Spain, overlooking the Mediterrannean Sea ... where the mountains of Andalucia and the Guadiaro River converge - you will find Almenara Golf Resort. Perhaps the best year round Golf Resort in Europe!
Almenara Golf Resort is blessed with 27 holes of some of the finest golf in Europe. The golf course winds its way through a spectacular natural landscape featuring lakes surrounded by pine and cork oak trees. Located on the same Sotogrande property as Valderama Golf Club (home of the 1997 Ryder Cup), Almenara shares the same characteristics as one of the highest rated courses in the world.
With two full service hotels - including the the 4 star Hotel Almenara - situated right on the golf course - it's as easy as walking out the front door to start your day with Golf Made Simple.
27 holes of brilliant golf. The 3 nines are called Los Lagos (The Lakes), Los Alcornoques (The Cork Trees), Los Pinos (The Pines). We're often asked which 9 holes is the best - and although each person may have their favorite - all we can say is that all 3 are fantastic!
The golf course is perfect for your 9 holes of On-Course Instruction each afternoon. As the golf course is beautiful, it also has a lot of strategy designed into it. Which will allow you and your Instructor to work on your golf swing as well as your PLAN on the golf course while taking in the beauty of the Andalusian area of southern Spain.
The Practice Facility
The practice facility at Almenara Golf Resort may be our best practice area.
With our own private instruction area on a full driving range with all grass tees, multiple target greens, a dedicated short game facility - 1 putting green, 1 chipping green, 1 sand/pitching green. And 3 private practice holes (a regulation par 3 and two regulation Par 4's) around the perimeter of the practice area. Plus, an additional covered hitting area in case of inclement weather.
The Almenara Golf Resort was chosen, in part, for their dedicated training facilities. It features the following:
Private teaching area - Beautiful, private grass hitting area
Short game teaching facility - 3 different
short game greens. Which allows training in conditions that are similar to what you'll find on the golf course
Hitting targets - We take advantage of every single golf swing - each swing will have a designated target and goal
