What the club says: This internationally acclaimed course was laid out by Jack Nicklaus, who's described it as one of his best designs to date. It's a very challenging 18 holer and even the expert golfer will find it a good test. Montecastillo was host to the Volvo Masters for five years from 1997-2001 and has received €2 million investment over the last couple of years making it an even better round of golf.

Reviewed Oct 18 2018 by Gary C - rated 4 out of 5 Fantastic Course, poor service and definitely no "smiles" given
The course is extremely enjoyable and testing, many elevated tees over looking hidden gorges, well worth visit - only disappointment golf wise was the 11th Par 3Its a nothing hole - just very long 200+ straight up-hill with no visible hazards or anything at all to note. Every other hole is an outstanding test of golf (bring your driver of the whites), greens a bit slow but I'm happy with that.
Take some snacks from the local supermarket with you as drinks are only available at the lodge and the refreshment buggy on the six occasions we played, we didn't see it once and apparently only has drinks again but I can't confirm this.
The halfway-house is two drinks machines, water and fizzy pop only. Extremely poor facilities for a 5 star resort and the staff can come across as very rude if you question the facilities.
Petrol heads will love it as the noise from the Jerez GP course is constant throughout the day, but sometimes off-putting as it is a constant from 1000hrs - 1600Hrs.
Well worth the visit just for the golf though and we did enjoy the week there, will not go back though purely because the facilities and staff were so poor in my opinion.

Reviewed Sep 24 2018 by Stephen K - rated 5 out of 5 Fantastic Golf course in great condition. Can be challenging but very fair at the same time. Plenty of water and sand to negotiate if your'e attacking the pin but wide fairways if you have safety in mind. Some of the hills to climb are not for the faint hearted and you have to cross a couple of roads to get to the next tee, so i would recommend a buggy. 6th visit and cant wait to visit again in 2019.

Reviewed Sep 13 2018 by Vic T - rated 4 out of 5 Really enjoyed this course
We really enjoyed playing this course.Hilly terrain with long long links between holes make a buggy essential on a hot day.
The course was generally in good condition with a wide variety of challenging holes.

Reviewed Nov 12 2016 by Dean C - rated 5 out of 5 Fantastic resort and course. Loads of bunkers - some are huge. But course is very fair and if you hit it straight you can score well. Go off target and you will encounter many strategically placed bunkers and trees. However hardly any rough.Fairways and greens in tip top condition. Highly recommended,

Reviewed May 11 2015 by Justin B - rated 5 out of 5 Went on a 3day golf holiday and then course was in fantastic shape, weather was perfect and the whole hotel and facilities top notch. The course is long so if you're not a big hitter (like me) it is challenging but still an excellent course.
