I played the America course yesterday and was very disappointed in the course. There are large areas of scrubland that I don't think Bill Oddie would enter. They are sometimes staked and sometimes not and I have no idea what the logic is. Also the greens are elevated and rock hard so you can't run them on but they will also not hold anything but a wedge. It also looked quite scruffy and the staff seem to think they work at Valderama.

Played Europa course again this year (see my other reviews). This is my favourite course. It's tough yet so good. It's in fantastic shape (29th September 2006). I would recommend this and the other 2 courses to any golfer, and I know you would not be disappointed.

Only one slight draw back. La Cala Golf Course in the Costa Del Sol have both electric and petrol buggies, but only the petrol buggies can be used on the Europa course. This is because it is so hilly (don't ever try and walk it). These are in short supply, so we were a bit late teeing off (20 minutes). Other than that, get out there and enjoy golf like you see it on the telly with the sun on your back. There is nothing better!

Spectacular complex set in the hills yet just a few miles from the coast. You could spend a week here and never want to leave. The courses demand accuracy and correct club selection. I have never before seen bridges on a course like on Campo Europa. Will definitely be back.

We have now played ALL three golf courses at La Cala. We played the North and South courses in 2004, which were magnificent. The 3rd course "Europa" was under construction at the time, so we decided to play this course this year. We played at the end of September. WHAT A COURSE!! This is probably one of the best courses we have played in Spain, and we have played a few now over the last 8 years. It's not a course for the faint hearted. This is a "thinking" golfers course. If you are going to the Costa Del Sol for a golf holiday, DEFINITELY put this course on you agenda.
