Lo Romero Golf is one of those places’ golfers talk about in a low voice, as if sharing a secret. Set between the blue Mediterranean and the soft inland hills of Alicante, the course sits in Pilar de la Horadada, at the southern tip of the Costa Blanca — a peaceful corner where golf still feels connected to nature.
A green paradise between the sea and the mountains
From the opening tee, the mood is calm and open. Fairways flow between pines, olive trees and Mediterranean herbs, and the sea breeze tags along for the round. Every hole feels spacious, bright and designed to remind you that golf here is not just a sport, but a moment to breathe and unwind.
And then comes the star: the famous 18th hole, known as “the Mediterranean Island.” Its green is wrapped by water, a picture-perfect finish that demands a precise shot and rewards you with one of the most memorable moments in Spanish golf. It’s easily one of the most photographed holes in the Levante — and for good reason.
The layout blends wide, technical holes with others that test your strategy, always in harmony with the landscape. The fairways are generous, the greens are quick, and the overall maintenance is superb all year long. That consistency has become part of the course’s identity.
Lo Romero hasn’t built its reputation through big campaigns — players themselves have done it. Word of mouth has turned it into a “must-play” favourite, a course praised for being authentic, friendly and free of fuss.
Sustainability is quietly woven into the project: local vegetation shapes the scenery, water is used with care, and the course feels like it belongs exactly where it is.
A driving range built for real practice
The practice area is another strong point. The driving range is wide, bright and designed for golfers who want to work on their game. It offers natural-grass platforms, a covered zone, practice bunkers, a dedicated chipping area and two putting greens. In the warmer months, the natural-grass tees recreate the sensation of playing straight from the course.
Academy: improve your game with confidence
Whether you’re starting out or polishing your technique, the Lo Romero Academy offers personalised and friendly coaching. Its pros teach all levels, with individual or group lessons, family programmes and on-course sessions that make learning enjoyable and effective.
La Terraza: Mediterranean flavours with course views
After the round, La Terraza is the perfect stop. Overlooking the course and the iconic 18th green, it’s the ideal place to relax, enjoy Mediterranean dishes and watch the last players finish their round under the late-afternoon light.
More than golf
A short drive takes you to the beaches of Torre de la Horadada or the calm waters of the Mar Menor. You’ll also find small villages, local markets, seafood restaurants and nature routes — all under more than 300 days of sunshine a year. The area offers plenty of accommodation options for golfers, and both Alicante and Murcia airports are less than 40 minutes away.
Playing Lo Romero is more than ticking off another course. It’s a slow, scenic, sun-drenched round where the Mediterranean sets the rhythm. Some courses you simply play — Lo Romero is one you remember.
