Malaga Car Hire
Los Flamingos was designed by Antonio Garcia Garrido who managed to set out a spectacular course with stunning views to the Mediterranean Sea, Africa and Gibraltar sea.
Location:
The golf course is situated in the west of San Pedro de Alcantara in the hills close to the N340.
Description:
Los Flamingos takes its name from the Los Famencos lake around which Chamberlain & Turner have laid out their 18-hole design.
At around 5.800 meters in length, it is not one of the longest courses but some tight fairways, especially on the front 9 and water hazards can cause quite a few problems. The first couple of holes are not the easiest of starters with the first tee over a ravine and the lake on the right.
A couple of the holes seem to have been forced into limited spaces, especially the par 3 4th and the crescent shaped par 5 6th .
The course opens up a little on the back nine , though the Par 4 10th is tough requiring an accurate tee short and a second shot across the lake if you are to reach the green in regulation.
For nearest to the pin try the Par 3 12th which allows little room for error. There is not a great deal of open driving holes, the 6th may be the best for space.
Flamingos Golf Club offers an exquisite atmosphere, the most advanced facilities and a personalised service that allows you to enjoy and appreciate every little detail.
n its short history, Flamingos Golf Club has already attained well-deserved international renown for the high level of quality it offers and for having been, for three consecutive years, the venue for the European Senior? Final, 'The Daily Telegraph European Seniors? Match Play Championship'.
The club currently has one course, 'Flamingos Golf', and will shortly be opening 'Gran Flamingo Golf Club' and 'Flamingos Executive Golf Club', and in the future, the 'Flamingo Norte'
The Club house has a nice bar and good if somewhat small changing rooms.
The club also houses the 5 star hotel Villa Padierna, though its romantic design may not be to everybody's taste.
The club is also home to an Executive Course which has 9 par-3s while another nine are currently being built. This course is located next to The Academy golf school. The Academy has a practice range of 100 tees distributed in bays, putting green areas, ball dispensing machines. Opening in the spring of 2006 is the Gran Flamingo golf course which would be the third for this club. A fourth, the Flamingo Norte is slated for opening in 2007-08.
