Facilities on the Benamor Golf course include a Driving Range, a small Putting Green, near the 1st hole, and a second large Putting area down below. A nice feature in the Benamor golf resort is the interesting marriage between the sport and culture, achieved by the artwork display in the entrance and the Clubhouse.
