As you go from one hole to the next you will enjoy the Italian sculptures and columns spread out across the golf course as well as fruit trees, cypresses and pines as if in a Roman garden.
There's also an extensive practice range, putting greens, and a 9 hole course. Other facilities include a golf academy and golf shop.

FLAMINGOS GOLF CLUB
Its 18-hole, 5.714 meter, par-71 course, designed by the prestigious course architect Antonio Garcia Garrido is characterised by its carefully conserved landscaping, with a large variety of trees and beautiful views of the Mediterranean.
The greens are generously sized whilst its fairways are somewhat narrower on the front nine, where more precision playing is required than on the back nine. The bunkers are white marmolina sand. The fairways are sown with Bermuda, except on certain holes where grass has been used, whilst the greens and tees have been sown with Penncross.
GRAN FLAMINGO GOLF CLUB
18 holes - par 73. Open from October 2007. In June 2005 work began on this third course, the 'GRAN FLAMINGO GOLF CLUB', which will surpass, if that were possible, Flamingos Golf and convert our golf resort into one of the best in the world.
