An 18-hole, par-72 course in the Torrequebrada urbanisation at Benalmádena Costa, designed by José Gancedo and opened in 1976. It looks out over the Mediterranean, and water, bunkers and the wind all come into play.

The course

Torrequebrada is a hillside course. The routing runs between 102 metres above sea level at the 1st green and 16 metres at the 7th, the lowest point, and most holes bend left or right from raised tees. José ‘Pepe’ Gancedo gave it large, strongly contoured greens, several lakes and well-placed bunkers, and the club counts more than a hundred tree species along the way.

The club singles out two holes: the 7th, a downhill drive towards the Mediterranean with an approach over a lake, and the 11th, where the tee shot carries water. The 16th, the hardest hole on the card, ends with a shot over a lake to a raised green.

Playing it

It is not long, but it is demanding: doglegs, slopes and water reward placement over power, and reviewers regularly call it a good test. The club's last published terms set a handicap limit of 27 for men and 35 for women, so it is not one for complete beginners. Few people walk it; the slopes are steep in places and a buggy is widely recommended. The course hosted the 1979 Spanish Open, won by Dale Hayes, and a year earlier the Spanish under-25 championship, won by Severiano Ballesteros.

Recent reviews mostly praise the condition, greens included, though some visits coincide with sanding or other work on the greens; the views and the friendly staff come up again and again. There is a 300-metre grass range with 15 bays, a putting green and a practice bunker, plus lessons and club fitting. The clubhouse has changing rooms with lockers, a luggage store for players coming straight from the airport, a shop and a restaurant open all year from breakfast, its terrace looking out to the sea and over the 18th. Spring and autumn are the busiest seasons; in summer, start early.

Living nearby

The course is in the Torrequebrada urbanisation on the slopes above Benalmádena Costa, and the club puts Málaga airport about 20 minutes away. Arroyo de la Miel and the Benalmádena marina lie to the east, Torremuelle and the road to Fuengirola to the west.

Most homes for sale near the course are apartments, with a good number of detached villas and some townhouses, spread across the hillside urbanisation and down towards Torremuelle and the coast.

We act only for buyers, and before a viewing we check how far the home really is from the course and what you see from it.
