Twenty minutes from Alicante airport, nestled at the foot of the mountains, overlooking the Benidorm Skyscrapers with the Mediterranean Sea on the horizon, the Villaitana resort boasts two 18-hole golf courses designed by Nicklaus Design, Poniente and Levante both blending into their natural surroundings, with views of the Bay and a leafy green pine wood.
The 18-hole, 3858 metre, par 62, Poniente golf course is located on the hillside of a beautiful Mediterranean pine valley with sea and mountain views. It is a the shorter of the two Jack Nicklaus designs at Villaitana.
Poniente is a technical course with 10 par 3s and 8 par 4s, featuring undulating fairways and greens, strategic bunkering, elevation changes and tight approaches which reward accuracy, course management, and a sharp short game.
A demanding course even for low handicap players, although all the holes offer alternative tee options, to make it playable for those with medium and high handicaps.
Played alongside the Levante, it gives you two quite different rounds from one base at Melia Villaitana.
To complement the golf, this immense resort features two hotels (Melia Villaitana 4* and The Melia Level Villaitana 5*), swimming pools, restaurants and sports facilities, making it a complete golf destination and one of the most popular on the Costa Blanca.
