Hi, went to spain last week to play golf and found that maybe the spanish are realising there is a recession on. We played Santana and got 18 holes with a buggy for 120 euros a pair. I didnt think that was bad as last year we paid 80 euros each. The top courses which we swerved this year are still stupid money (175 for La Reserva + buggy). It makes you think about the courses you want to play and the audience. This year we had two high handicappers and it seemed pointless for them paying that much. enjoyment versus cost is a major factor now. Hope some of the other courses will drop there costs as well.

Thanks for that, I'll be going in a few weeks time & was looking at Santana & El Chapparal. Did you book directly at the course or through an agency ?

managed to persuade a group of chums to hit florida instead of spain...... flights and accom put £200 on week but golf they played 6 rounds, all booked the day before on golfnow.com
harmony $18, Sugarloaf $ 22, Celebration $ 32. Solvita $18 Ridgewood $17 Legends $23
in otherwords none cost more than twenty quid all with compulsory buggy.
add this to the all you can eat at ponderosa for $5.99 and all agreed it was no dearer than the costas.

Hi Steve,
I live predominantly out in Spain 30 minutes South of Alicante.
The deals that are on offer now have never been so good. I can arrange golf packages for uk societies. The latest package that is 7 nights all-inclusive accomm with unlimited drinks, brekkie and 3 course evening meal, All the transport/transfers with 3 round of golf for about 350 quid. It doen't get much better. Let me know if you want more info.
Cheers
Stuart
