The 220 yard 12th is the hole that stays with you on Levante. This demanding par three plays to a green sitting in a natural bowl, defended by four deep bunkers, and asks for a properly judged tee shot rather than a hopeful swing. It is one of the sharper moments on a 7,192 yard, par 72 Nicklaus Design course where wide fairways offer room from the tee, but the shaped greens, 106 bunkers and three lakes keep the round interesting. Five tee options make it possible to set a sensible test for the group, while views towards the Mediterranean and Sierra mountains give the course a distinctly Costa Blanca feel. Princess bermudagrass covers the tees, fairways and rough, with Providence creeping bentgrass on the greens.
There is a second 18 hole round close at hand in Poniente, a par 62 measuring 4,219 yards. It threads through a pine valley on the hillside, with sea and mountain views appearing as the course climbs and turns. Between rounds, the 30 bay driving range stretches beyond 300 yards, and there are two putting greens plus a golf academy for anyone looking to sharpen up before the main event. GPS fitted buggies show distances to the green and make navigating both layouts straightforward.
The accommodation is spread across 25 buildings arranged like a Mediterranean village, with squares and details inspired by an old town. Its 455 rooms and suites have generous proportions and private terraces, giving you space to settle in after golf. Days away from the fairways can revolve around 5,000 square metres of outdoor pools, an artificial beach or the 1,200 square metre YHI Spa, with several dining venues on the resort. Alicante Airport is around 20 minutes away, while Benidorm, its beaches, restaurants and evening scene are less than 15 minutes by car.
