Real Club Sotogrande Golf Course

Recently, DecoGrass has installed a bunker in the Real Club Sotogrande Golf Course with the technology developed and used in clubs such as Club de Golf La Cañada, Real Club La Moraleja and Arcosur Golf Course.

After studying and analyzing different construction methods, they decided to use this technology because it is one of the best options to solve the problems derived from bunkers.

For the development of this material, the experience with the artificial grass on the putting green projects developed at Club de Golf La Cañada and Arcosur Golf marked the starting point but always taking into account that the demands or requirements that the base are different. While in the putting green the rolling or the absorption of the impact of the ball is the most important, in this case, it is to improve the drainage capacity by avoiding the displacement or runoff of the sand and the contamination of the same.

The key to the material developed by Decograss is the research that has been carried out to improve the water evacuation capacity depending on the surface of the bunker and to be able to adapt it to the climate of the area in which the golf course is located.

DecoGrass, being a company specialized in this type of system, has specific facilities, personnel and machinery and, above all, a long process of development and investment to achieve the best quality in this type of work. An example of this is the success achieved more than a year ago at the La Cañada golf course by installing this system in the bunkers of nine of its holes. The result was total satisfaction on the part of the club and bunkers that present, to this day, perfect playing conditions, regardless of the weather conditions.

Lo Romero Golf Course. Costa Blanca and Valencian Community's golf courses reopen on the 1st of March after 40 days of forced closure

Costa Blanca and Valencian Community

The Costa Blanca and the Valencian Community’s golf courses reopened on 1st of March after the new resolution of the Universal Health Department & Public Health of Valencian on the “new measures as a result of the health crisis caused by COVID -19 ”in the DOGV, although some of them will wait until Tuesday, March 2, as they are completing maintenance works and improvements on the greens that had been undertaken taking advantage of this forced stop.

It should be remembered that the 36 golf courses, 21 golf courses on the Costa Blanca and 15 golf courses in the rest of the Valencian Community, like, La Finca, Lo Romero, Villaitana Levante & Poniente, El Valle, Mar Menor, Alenda, Alicante, Altea, Font del Llop, Las Colinas Golf & Country Club, Las Ramblas, Villamartin, Altorreal, La Manga Club Resort North, South & West, Roda, Campoamor, El Plantio, La Sella, among others were forced to close on January 21st after the decree issued by the Universal Health Department & Public Health of Valencian as a result of the health situation caused by COVID-19.

This forced closure has been a drama for the golf courses of the Costa Blanca and the Valencian Community since they have had to continue paying the enormous daily maintenance costs, while in the rest of the country all the golf courses could remain open.
Once the reopening of the Costa Blanca and the Valencian Community golf courses has been announced, as well as the rest of the outdoor sports activities that meet safety criteria, the great objective of resuming the activity and all the efforts of the sector has been achieved. They are oriented and prepare for the next challenges such as the gradual opening of the airspace and the future arrival of golf tourists to the destination.

Tee Times Golf Agency publishes these reopenings with great enthusiasm, wishing that very soon we all will be able to play freely and amicably on these and all the golf courses.
For a safe, harmonious and relaxing return to the Costa Blanca and Valencia, we suggest our atractive golf packages at the hotels: Principe Felipe La Manga *****, Sercotel Hotel Bonalba Alicante ****, Dna Monse ****, The Residences Mar Smaller ***.
From golf packages for 3 nights accommodation + 2 rounds, 4 nights accommodation + 3 rounds, 5 nights accommodation + 4 rounds, 7 nights accommodation + 5 rounds up to special professional golf packages for 7 nights accommodation + 6 rounds or others elaborated according to the budget or desire of each client or group.

Share your dream with us and we will make it happen.
