La Zagaleta
Opened in 1968 and designed by the renowned golf course architect Bernhard von Limburger , Atalaya ’ s Old Course is one of the finest golf courses on the Costa del Golf . The wide and generous fairways undulate gently between mature trees and flowering shrubs providing shade and colour all year round . Ideal for walking , the undulating contours of its many elevated greens challenge even the best of short game experts . After your game , relax in the clubhouse terrace overlooking the course and with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and the impressive “ La Concha ” mountain .
Santa Maria
Zagaleta New Course was designed in 2005 by “ Gaunt & Marnoch ”, who took care of every detail to create a recreational and private space that merges with nature in an 18-hole course with beautiful obstacles and doglegs . Only here , in such a magical setting , can you see deer and fallow deer , among others , only a few metres away while hitting the ball . Without a doubt , it is an evocative and exclusive space from top to bottom . To complete the experience , the course has an elegant Club House with a large terrace and views of the vast countryside and its beautiful lake .
Based around an 18th century “ Cortijo ” which is currently the Club House , Santa Maria boasts stunning gardens and fine leisure facilities including tennis and lawn bowling . Set amidst unparalleled beauty of the Andalucian countryside , the course traces the contours of two valleys in which the natural vegetation , streams and four lakes form natural hazards . The course is not long but full of interest and with each hole having it ’ s own character . Many of the tees are elevated and the views from the 10th hole to the 16th are breathtaking on a fine day . Santa Maria is not only considered one of the most exquisite Golf and Country Clubs on the Costa del Sol , but also one of the friendliest . The addition of a newly built 10th hole in 2020 increases this course to Par72 .
