La Envia, Almeria Spain

Nestled in the foothills of the Sierra de Gador mountains

Golf Course Description: Designed and built by Francisco Mendoza in 1993, La Envia Golf and Country Club boasts a beautifully maintained par 70 course nestled in the foothills of the Sierra de Gador mountain range - with the surrounding mountainsprotecting the course from any wind.

Just 10 minutes from the centre of Almeria City and easily accessible by the A-7 / E-15 motorway, the 6,263 yard layout is bordered by a fine array of indigenous flora and fauna, including palm and mimosa trees, and offers a fair test of your golfing skills. The luscious green of the golf course is effectively an oasis in the midst of the Almerian desert, and the great variety of distinctive holes makes the course a real pleasure.

The clubhouse is home to an excellent 200 seat restaurant and a very popular "19th Hole", which serves a full snack bar menu, leading out onto the terrace overlooking the course.

Golf club description and facilities: La Envia, though a relatively short course, is full of character and has many interesting holes to overcome. Raised tees, piano-ed greens with numerous bunkers guarding their entrances and spectacular views in every direction.

An 18 bay, floodlit driving range is at the heart of the practice area which also includes putting greens, chipping areas and practice bunkers. Our two PGA professionals are at your disposal to offer invaluable advice on how to improve your game to the next level.

The golf course terrace, with panoramic views over the course, the mountains and the Mediterranean in the distance, is the perfect venue for evening barbecues and the regular live music events staged at La Envia.
