Is Las Colinas Golf good for golf?
This is one of the best regarded courses in Spain, and it is the reason most people come here in the first place. The layout is an 18-hole, par 71 championship course designed by the American golf architect Cabell B. Robinson, who also created Finca Cortesín and La Reserva de Sotogrande. It opened for play in 2010 and has hosted European Tour Qualifying School.
The course runs through a valley of pine-covered hills, so it feels enclosed and natural rather than built-up. There is real variety: uphill doglegs, short tempting par 4s, several holes played over or alongside water, and a long par 3 at the 17th that tests most players. The closing par 5 plays back towards the clubhouse and its lake.
Practice facilities are unusually good for the Costa Blanca. There is a natural grass driving range, a putting green built to the same specification as the course greens, and two short game areas, one of them designed by European Tour winner Miguel Ángel Jiménez. The course is advised and managed by Troon Golf.
If you like to vary your golf, you are in the right corner of Spain. Within a short drive you have Las Ramblas Golf and Real Club de Golf Campoamor (both about 3 km away as the crow flies), Lo Romero, Villamartín, and La Finca at Algorfa a little further inland.
What is on the resort besides the golf?
The heart of the resort is a Mediterranean-style clubhouse of around 1,500 m², a few steps from the 1st and 10th tees, with terraces looking over the lake at the 18th. The dining offer has grown over the years and now includes an Italian restaurant, a Mediterranean restaurant overlooking the golf, and a Japanese, Mexican and Nikkei kitchen.
There is also a Sports & Health Club with a gym, pool and wellness area, and a racquet club with tennis, padel and multi-sport courts. Walking and cycling paths run through the valley, which suits people who want to be outdoors without getting in the car.
The resort has its own beach club on the seafront at La Glea beach in Campoamor, with an infinity pool, sea views and a restaurant. That combination, golf inland and a private beach spot on the coast, is rare on this stretch of the Costa Blanca.
What is it like to live at Las Colinas Golf?
Calm, green and private. The development is deliberately low density, with homes grouped in small communities among the hills, so you see trees and fairways rather than rows of rooftops. Architecture and landscaping are tightly controlled, which is part of why values here hold up well.
Be clear about the trade-off, though. This is a resort, not a town. There is no high street, no weekly market on site and only limited day-to-day shopping, so you will need a car for supermarkets, schools, doctors and the wider coast. Nightlife means a restaurant terrace, not a strip of bars.
Shops, health centres and the big coastal resorts are a short drive away, and the historic city of Orihuela lies inland. If you want the same quiet hillside feel with lower prices, look at neighbours such as Lomas de Campoamor or Pinar de Campoverde.
How much does property cost at Las Colinas Golf?
Prices below come from our own listings at the time of writing (September 2026) and are rounded. This is the top end of the Costa Blanca South market, so figures are well above the coastal average.
- Apartments and penthouses: from around €275,000, with most sitting between about €400,000 and €550,000.
- Villas: most fall between about €1 million and €2 million, with the largest and best-positioned homes reaching around €2.7 million.
- Typical home: three bedrooms and around 175 m² built.
- Pools: roughly four out of five homes we list here have a private or communal pool.
- New build: about four in ten of our homes here are new build, as the resort is still being developed in phases.
Buying costs
On a resale you pay ITP transfer tax of 9% in the Valencian Community (11% on the part above €1 million, from 1 June 2026). On a new build you pay 10% IVA plus 1.4% stamp duty (AJD) instead.
How far is Las Colinas Golf from the beach and the airport?
The sea is about 7 km away, which is roughly a 10 to 15 minute drive to the beaches of Campoamor and Dehesa de Campoamor, including La Glea where the beach club sits.
For flights you have a choice of two airports, which is useful in winter when routes thin out:
- Región de Murcia (RMU, Corvera): around 30 to 40 minutes by car.
- Alicante-Elche (ALC): around 45 to 55 minutes by car, with far more airlines and year-round flights.
Who buys at Las Colinas Golf, and does it rent out well?
Buyers here are mostly northern Europeans: British, Scandinavian, Belgian, Dutch and German, plus a growing number of Polish and Spanish buyers. Many are golfers buying a second home, some are retiring or working remotely, and a few are trading up from a smaller property elsewhere on the coast.
Holiday rental demand is strong because golfers travel out of season, which helps fill spring and autumn weeks that struggle in the beach resorts. Homes on this resort rent at a higher nightly rate than the coastal average, though rules here are strict and a tourist licence is required, so always check what is permitted for the specific property before you count on income.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have to play golf to live at Las Colinas Golf?
No. Many owners never pick up a club and come for the quiet, the security and the sports and beach facilities. Golf membership and owner green fee arrangements are handled by the club, and we can point you to the current terms.
Are there shops and a supermarket on the resort?
Only limited convenience shopping on site, plus the restaurants. Larger supermarkets, pharmacies and shopping centres are a short drive away on the coast, so a car is essential.
Is it quiet here in winter?
Yes, noticeably quieter than the coastal resorts, but the course, clubhouse and gym stay open and there is a settled year-round community. If you want busy streets and plenty of open bars in January, a coastal area will suit you better.
Are community fees higher than usual?
They are generally higher than in a standard Orihuela Costa urbanisation, because you are paying for gated access, landscaped grounds and resort upkeep. Fees vary by community and property, so ask us for the exact figure on any home you like.
Can I still buy a new build here?
Yes. The resort is being built out in phases and a good share of the homes we list are new build or recently completed, which also means you pay 10% IVA plus 1.4% AJD rather than transfer tax.
Which airport is best for Las Colinas Golf?
Murcia (RMU) is closer, at around 30 to 40 minutes, but Alicante (ALC) has many more flights and is around 45 to 55 minutes. Most owners use both depending on the route.
