Alicante » Melia Villaitana (Levante & Poniente) With two 18-hole courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, Levante and Poniente, the Villaitana Resort is a very popular option for golfers on the Costa Blanca. Both courses show Nicklaus’s unmistakable design and have the advantage of not being included in a real estate development. Over an area of more than 80 hectares, the US-style Championship Course, with wife fairways and exquisitely formed greens, and with a length of more than 6,6,12 metres, offers marvellous view of the Mediterranean and of the Finestrat mountains. 111
