Designed by José María
Cañizares, one of the heroes of the Ryder Cup, Añoreta
was the second golf course to be built on the east side of
the Costa del Sol. When the club was opened in 1990 the course
only had nine holes, but now it has 18.Its water hazards are
its main feature as they from a part of eleven of the holes
and surround the green on the 17th on three sides. The 3rd
and 8th are the most spectacular and difficult holes of all.
The former, a 525-metres par-five, affords marvellous views
of the sea from its tee.
The latter, a par-four with a dog-leg to the right, is plagued
with difficulties. The par-three 17th is also worth mentioning
as a lake has to crossed before reaching the green. Cañizares
has designed a course which is suited to all golfers, from
beginners to experienced players and pros. With a total length
of 5,976 metres from the amateur tees, all the course's fairways
and greens are wide. Its lush vegetation and great expanses
of water enhance its natural beauty. And its long par make
it necessary to use strength, precision and patience.
AñoretaGolf is situated only 7,5 miles to the east
of Málaga, and to get to the club it’s best to
take the Rincón de la Victoria bypass or go through
the village itself, which has always been a popular summer
resort of the inhabitants of Málaga.
