Roda Golf Modern Improvement

Roda Golf Cutting-Edge Improvement 
As a demonstration of the resort’s commitment to golfing innovation and excellence, the Roda Golf & Beach Resort in Murcia has installed a cutting-edge ball machine on its driving range. As a result of the cutting-edge machine that is fitted with DiPay technology, golfers can now pay for their balls with ease using cards or mobile devices without having to leave their positions during the game.

This cutting-edge technology not only enhances the user experience by delivering a payment interface that is simplified and simple to operate, but it also makes the process of dispensing balls more efficient. According to José Antonio Hernández, the course director at Roda Golf & Beach Resort, “We are always looking for ways to improve the experience that will be provided to our players.” We are further demonstrating our commitment to providing great service and meeting the requirements of our clients by incorporating this cutting-edge ball machine into our operations. 

  

With the incorporation of DiPay technology into the ball machine, the resort has made its most recent effort to stay at the forefront of the golfing facilities and services now available. The impressive practise facility that is now available to golf holiday guests at the Murcia resort is designed to make their time spent on the 18-hole course more enjoyable while they are there.

  

If you are looking for a golf holiday in Murcia, Roda Golf & Beach Resort is always a terrific alternative to consider. The golf courses in Murcia are an experience that deserves to be appreciated, as they are located in an area that offers great weather and is readily accessible to visit. Always ensure that you are accompanied by your best golf partner here at Tee Times, as well as make sure that you book your golf break in Murcia as quickly as possible.

Victoria and Old Course Renovation

Victoria and Old Course Renovation
After purchasing five courses and hotels in Vilamoura from the Dom Pedro Group, Arrow Global Portugal Group is now renovating two of the most famous courses in Europe, the Victoria Course and the Old Course.

The Victoria Golf Course, designed by American Arnold Palmer and widely regarded as one of the most difficult in Europe, closed for good on December 11, 2023, after nearly 20 years in operation. Its last tournament was the 35th Vilamoura Grand Trophy. The course, clubhouse, and their surroundings will all undergo extensive renovations as part of Victoria’s reopening in February 2025. Approximately 17 million euros have been set aside for this renovation.

The well-known South African professional Ernie Els, who is making his first appearance in Portugal, is creating the new course. Els and his architectural team recently designed the course’s makeover after spending a week in Vilamoura.

The former Victoria Golf Course has hosted the Portugal Masters sixteen times and the 2005 World Cup. The course closed in December, after operating for 19 and a half years. On February 20, 2025, it will reopen with a fresh layout.

At the same time, the Old Course, a golfing treasure in the Algarve, will be closed for about a month starting on December 11, 2023, and is expected to reopen in early January. The course’s design, fairways, and greens will be improved. The Old Course’s clubhouse is undergoing enhancements to better serve visitors.

Arrow Global Portugal Group is actively seeking to increase its presence in the Portuguese golfing market, as it has several courses throughout the country’s northern, central, and Algarve areas.

While the Victoria Course and the Old Course remain closed, other greens from the group remain available, such as Pinhal Golf Course, Laguna Golf Course, and Millenium Golf Course. You can book your green fee in Vilamoura directly with us here at Tee Times.

Estepona Golf’s Hole 8 Renovation and Partnership

Estepona Golf Hole 8 Renovation

Estepona Golf’s Hole 8 Renovation and Partnership 
Located on Spain’s beautiful Costa del Sol, the widely recognised Estepona Golf Course is undergoing a period of transformation that started with the extensive restoration of hole 8, marking the first step towards a successful venture.

This renovation project includes extensive earthmoving, a refined reshaping of the landscape, the implementation of an advanced drainage system, and an upgraded irrigation system. It is being carried out by GTM Golf, a well-known Spanish company with experience in building and renovating golf courses throughout Europe. The path has also been properly seeded with a layer of 10 centimetres of sand and a full layer of Bermuda Latitude36 grass.

Referring to current environmental measures in golf course management, such as cutting water usage, recycling materials, and utilising renewable resources, modifications like these provide a modern perspective on golf sustainability. 

The next step in the transformation is a planned overhaul of the course’s primary and secondary irrigation systems.

The Globalia Group has added Estepona Golf to its holdings, continuing a major initiative begun by Juan José Hidalgo, president of the group and the original visionary behind Air Europa, marking it as their entrance into golf in Spain. 

A large hotel, tourist apartments, a man-made lake with a beach, residential sections, and a sports zone with indoor and outdoor facilities are all part of this massive development. Notable features of the project include housing for a film crew and spacious recording facilities to accommodate the production of television series. 

In April of this year, Hidalgo spoke with Andalucía Golf about his thoughts on the acquisition, saying, “Twenty-two years ago, I acquired the renowned Herencia Nadal land, spanning a million and a half square metres, with the vision to develop a grand project. Golf wasn’t initially on the agenda, but a substantial sports area was. Estepona Golf seamlessly fits into our vision due to its adjacency, making it an ideal addition to the project. It’s a meticulously prepared course that resonates well with players, prompting many to return.”

At Tee Times Golf Agency, we understand the importance of offering golfers the opportunity to elevate their golf experience with modern courses while enjoying a golf holiday. Costa del Sol is part of this plan, and we invite you to explore the rejuvenated Estepona Golf and book your golf holiday in Spain with Tee Times Golf Agency. Discover the finest golf courses in Costa del Sol and embark on a golfing adventure that’s both rewarding and unforgettable.
