Lauro Golf Club Spain - Costa Del Sol

Lauro Golf Course

18 holes Par 72 6082 Metres

Location:- Malaga, Costa Del Sol

Designed by Folco Nardi and Mariano Benitez, Lauro Golf course is located 1000 feet above sea level and set in the most beautiful countryside. Lauro has recently added an additional 9 holes to the course.

All the current holes here are named after famous bullfighters, and many fairways are defined by lines of olive trees. With views of mountains to the north, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south, the course adjoins the protected forest area of the Sierra de Mijas.

Lauro golf course is a relatively flat parkland-style course. The beautiful landscape inspires peace and quiet, and the layout is a friendly one, even for inexperienced players. The olive trees line most of the fairways, and certain water hazards are very much to the fore (on the 9th, 14th, 17th and 18th holes) but never fearsome.

Never too demanding with virtually no hidden traps (all hazards are clearly visible), Lauro golf course is a very honest layout. It is the ideal spot to assess your current game, and potential to measure up with players of a similar ability. The better players can card flattering scores, and do their ego a world of good.

Since opening in 1992, Los caracolillos has hosted both the Andalucian Junior Finals and the senior’s Finals.

The clubhouse is very interesting as it is a 200 year old Spanish Cortijo that has been restored to house a restaurant, bar, pro shop, and offices, all surrounding a lovely Spanish patio - the perfect spot for after the game!

There are several water hazards, including one at the 18th waiting to catch golfers as they come home. Large greens are well protected and are very fast.
