Course Description

Alcaidesa es un Resort donde estilo, naturaleza, vistas, seguridad, servicios y el mejor golf se unen en una de las más exclusivas zonas del sur de España. Alcaidesa Links Golf Resort es disfrutar del único campo de golf tipo Links del sur de Europa, 18 hoyos con espectaculares vistas al Mediterráneo y a Gibraltar, y un segundo campo tipo Heathland, kilómetros de playa casi virgen, restaurantes, hoteles y propiedades donde vivir todo el año. Alcaidesa Links Golf Resort pertenece al Grupo Alcaidesa, empresa que crea y desarrolla espacios que aportan soluciones a la creciente demanda de enclaves especializados en deportes al aire libre, así como de eventos y celebraciones. Alcaidesa, ha desarrollado la urbanización que lleva su nombre como destino turístico de golf, con sus dos campos, Links y Heathland y sus nuevas instalaciones: campo de prácticas y Casa Club. Es en el año 2003, cuando el grupo comienza las gestiones para conseguir la concesión del futuro Puerto Deportivo de La Línea de la Concepción, mediante la solicitud de la concesión presentando un proyecto concreto. Este trámite se prolonga hasta el año 2007, y es a final de julio de ese año, cuando la Autoridad Portuaria de la Bahía de Algeciras adjudica la concesión a Alcaidesa Servicios SA de la ocupación de los suelos y la lámina de agua en la zona portuaria de La LÍnea de la Concepción, para la construcción y explotación de instalaciones náutico-deportivas y de uso náutico-comercial-recreativo. A partir de esta adjudicación se han desarrollado los proyecto de ejecución y realizado los trámites encaminados para el comienzo de las obras. Las obras están en pleno rendimiento, y se prevé que se entreguen los atraques en Marzo del 2010.

Get answers to common questions about playing Links and what to expect.

How difficult is Links for mid-handicap golfers?

Links presents a demanding test. This slope level makes it manageable compared to championship venues. The course rating of 70 reflects on scoring relative to par 72.

What tees should a 15 handicap play at Links?

A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6000 yards. The back tees extend to 6500 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.

What is considered a good score at Links?

With a course rating of 70 and par 72, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 72 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.

How long is Links and how does yardage affect play?

Stretching to 6500 yards from the back tees, it does not overwhelm length but rewards accuracy.

What type of course is Links and how should I play it?

The course follows a traditional Parkland design philosophy. Overall, the setup will reward players who place the ball in safe positions far from hazards. Also, type of shot is more crucial rather than just trying to gain distance.

What features make Links strategically challenging?

The combination of a slope rating of 120 and yardage reaching 6500 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
