Oliva Nova:
Just imagine it... A summer lasting three months, and a spring lasting nine. Mile upon mile of coastline with natural sand dunes. An 18-hole golf course, designed by none other than Seve Ballesteros. All the services and infrastructure you could possibly need for comfortable living. Vast orange groves. Gorgeous scenery, framed by a backdrop of mountains. Never-ending sandy beaches. The Mediterranean, ever-present, with its relaxing sights and sounds. The magic of Monte Montgó between the towns of Denia and Jávea. And, right in the midst of all this beauty, the Oliva Nova Beach & Golf Resort.
For the Golfer:
The Oliva Nova Golf Club course is a par 72 links course with challenging water obstacles on all but 3 of the holes. Seve himself says:'This course offers great possibilities to all golfers, as it has short, medium and long holes, and fairways with left and right doglegs. I think it poses a challenge to any golfer.' To date, the course has hosted various official competitions, including tournaments for Spanish professional players. A driving range with 25 matted bays and a pitching and putting green are available along with a team of multilingual professionals offering tuition to all levels of golfer from the beginner to the low-handicap player.
There is a set of golf clubs available with the apartment. Just let us know in advance if you would like to use them.
