Golf in Spain has Never been Such Good Value
Green-fees on the Costa del Sol’s golf courses continue to fall as golf clubs react to the economic realities.
Our only wish is that they had listened to us, the tour operator over the last few years when we encouraged them to stop hiking prices.
Los Naranjos now has a €65 green-fee and is giving a €10 voucher for spending in the Bar / Restaurant which means the round of golf is really costing €55. A year ago the same round was €85.
This is a typical example of the great value now available on the Costa del Sol.
For the summer they have introduced a special offer of €115 for 2 players and a buggy.
You heard it First From Golf Experience – No Cars for Rent at Malaga Airport this Summer!
This summer will see a major shortage of cars for rent at Malaga Airport. This is an ironic result of the credit crunch. All the major car-hire companies relied in the past, on renewing their fleets on a buy and sell back arrangement with the car manufactures. After six months the manufactures bought the cars back and sold them on.
However, this is no longer happening and the car-rental companies consequently will have much reduced fleets this summer as they can not finance outright the purchase of new fleets. Already at Easter there was a huge shortage so, be warned.
If you are planning a visit during the summer let us book your car now with Espacar who offer the best Value / Service on the Costa. No hidden extras, no waiting at Malaga Airport, no rip-off charges for fuel etc. Just the smiling face of Antonio to greet you and rush you to your awaiting car.
San Pedro de Alcantara Tunnel
San Pedro de Alcantara, as many of you will know it, is about to disappear for 18 months.
The N 340 / A7 from the Ronda roundabout to Guadalmina Golf Club or the above arch will be close to traffic by the time you read this. The sea-side alternative route will take the traffic in both directions.
