Las Colinas Named Spain's Best Course at World Golf Awards

Las Colinas Golf & Country Club has been named Spain's Best Golf Course for the second year running by the prestigious World Golf Awards that were held over the weekend in Portugal.

The highly respected awards, voted for by the public, saw Las Colinas hold off strong competition from the best courses in Spain at the lavish ceremony. The awards themselves look to develop, promote and support the global golf tourism industry by identifying and rewarding golfing excellence.

Since winning the title last year, Las Colinas, with the assistance of Troon, has ensured the course has maintained the high level of excellence needed for all golfers to have the best experience possible.

The category of ‘Spain’s Best Golf Course’ is judged on a wide range of specifications from immaculate course conditioning and layout, to exceptional front of house experience and service. Ensuring this was of the utmost priority throughout the whole year helped Las Colinas to top spot at the awards.

Silvia Llanes, Marketing, Quality and Innovation Director at Gmp, the Spanish real estate group that own Las Colinas, commented “We are delighted to have won the title of Spain’s Best Golf Course for the second year running. We know the quality of golf in Spain is getting better and better every year, so it is extremely satisfying to have come out on top again.”

Cristóbal Guerrero, General Manager at Las Colinas Golf & Country Club also said, “It is a real testament to the incredible hard work everyone at the resort has put in. They all work tirelessly to ensure no stone is left unturned at the resort and that everyone who comes to Las Colinas truly has a ‘World Apart’ experience.”

Located south of Alicante in 330 hectares of Mediterranean woodland, the resort has become a leader in attracting international golf and leisure visitors, as well as second-home owners to the region since its opening in 2010.

The consecutive titles of Spain’s Best Golf Course have firmly established Las Colinas Golf & Country Club as one of Europe’s leading golfing destinations. Earlier this year the resort was also named Spain’s Leading Villa Resort at the World Travel Awards for the second year running, adding to its ever-growing international reputation.
