Mijas Golf:
Mijas Golf has become one of the most popular golf complexes in
Europe, known by the outstanding condition of their courses and
the friendly atmosphere and excellent service provided to the
clients.
The courses, Los Lagos and Los Olivos, are situated in the
valley of Mijas, north of Fuengirola, only twenty minutes from
the Málaga international airport and Marbella, and 3.5 kms. from
the sea.
Los Olivos Course: (18 holes) Designed by Robert Trent
Senior, the main feature which distinguishes this course from
The Lakes is the abundance of trees – hence the name – and its
smaller size, as well as fewer water hazards. The greens are
smaller, undulating and well defended. Although both are the
work of the same designer, there is no doubt there are
interesting contrasts between the two courses: if Los Lagos are
based on hazards of water and sand, Los Olivos is strategic
narrow tree lined fairways and elevated greens.
Los Lagos Course: (18 holes) With its 6,367 metres, this
course is the longer of the two which comprise of Mijas Golf.
Designed by Robert Trent Jones Senior, Los Lagos is a ground
course with wide fairways and a few forest trees obstacles, but
is defended by many bunkers and nine lakes, from which the
course gets its name and which easily trap the ball. It is a
course with soft movement and large greens. It could be said
that the American designer wanted to present a course especially
for amateurs, but at the same time, it can present a challenge
for the best players.
