Golfed only 18 in May 2012 but it was an amazing course. It is difficult course, but not unpleasant even for a relative novice(3 yrs playing). The wind off the Mediterranean adds a challenge, and the wildflowers and birds add to the exotic ambience. I was nervous playing with a local couple due to the language barrier and thinking I could not keep yp, but they provided local knowledge of the course that could not be surpassed by a personal caddy. An overall enjoyable experience!! I would highly recommend this course to anyone that is interested in golfing in the area. Important note for North Americans: There are no "drink service carts" on the course itself, so be sure to pack lots of water and a snack if you desire, as it is a long way to the clubhouse if you are parched...

I have played the course in May 2010. Most guides like the Peugeot Guide complain about the course condition. I have played many courses around the world, but found this course to be in impeccable condition. Greens were not not overly fast but very very true. Fairways very well maintained and bunkers very deep but fair. Unfortunately, they were busy working on the course, and on the second nine the green were sanded and the bunkers not raked yet, which spoiled the fun somewhat. High price (105 euro) but worth it, as especially the links holes are very good.

Hi Ian.
Hope you don't mind me contacting you but I have just purchased a Casa in Montroy (Valencia) with a view to retire approx 5 years time, but I intend to take up golf now, my property is appprox 30 mins drive from El Saler golf course, could you tell me some info about the course, ie prices, weather they invite Brits?
Many thanks on any info.
Adios John Scrivener.

hi john
havent looked at this site for a while.
we played it twice in 03 march and november the costs are about 60-70 euros a round,dont know about membership.they didnt mind at all about brits playing but it is best to book before although first time we played we contacted them on the way to the course!and we were allowed straight on although this was mid march. if you become a member i would be very jealous as possibly my favourite course i have ever played,not easy but fair.
have a good game
