If you’re staying in Ciudad Quesada and enjoy a round of golf, you’re in a really good spot.
The Costa Blanca is packed with quality golf courses, and quite a few of them are just a short drive away. Some are well-known, others a bit more low-key, but overall there’s a good mix depending on your level and what kind of course you prefer.
One thing that does make a big difference though is having a car. A lot of these courses aren’t the easiest to reach otherwise, and taxis back and forth can add up pretty quickly.
Here’s a look at some of the best golf courses near Ciudad Quesada, plus what to expect and how easy they are to get to.
⛳ La Marquesa Golf (Ciudad Quesada – 5 minutes)
You can’t really start anywhere else.
La Marquesa is right on your doorstep, and for many people staying in Quesada, it’s the most convenient option by far.
It’s a fairly forgiving course compared to others in the area, which makes it ideal if you’re:
- A beginner
- A casual player
- Just looking for a relaxed round
That said, there are still a few holes that can catch you out if you’re not paying attention.
Getting there is easy—most places in Ciudad Quesada are only a few minutes away by car, or even walkable depending on where you’re staying.
🌴 Las Colinas Golf & Country Club (25 minutes)
Las Colinas is one of the top-rated courses on the Costa Blanca, and you’ll notice the difference as soon as you arrive.
It’s set a bit inland, surrounded by hills and nature, so it feels quieter and more exclusive.
What to expect:
- Immaculate course conditions
- A more premium experience
- Slightly more challenging layout
It’s about a 20-minute drive from Ciudad Quesada, and having your own car makes it much easier, especially if you’ve got an early tee time.
🌊 Villamartín Golf (20 minutes)
Villamartín is one of the older, more established courses in the area, and it’s still a popular choice.
The layout is interesting, with:
- Mature trees
- Narrow fairways in places
- A good mix of holes
It’s not the easiest course if you’re completely new, but it’s enjoyable and has a bit of character to it.
The drive is straightforward, usually around 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic.
🌅 Las Ramblas Golf (25 minutes)
Not far from Villamartín, Las Ramblas is known for being a bit more challenging.
You’ll find:
- Undulating terrain
- Tight fairways
- Plenty of natural obstacles
It’s the kind of course where accuracy matters more than power.
If you’re someone who enjoys a slightly tougher round, this one’s worth trying.
🏌️♂️ Campoamor Golf (25 minutes)
Campoamor offers something a bit different again.
The course is more open compared to Las Ramblas, which makes it feel a bit more forgiving, but there’s still enough variety to keep things interesting.
It’s also in a nice setting, with views across the surrounding area.
Like the others nearby, it’s roughly a 20-minute drive from Ciudad Quesada.
🚗 How to get to the golf courses
This is where having a car really helps.
While some resorts might offer transport, most people find it much easier to just drive themselves.
With a car, you can:
- Arrive on time without relying on taxis
- Carry your clubs comfortably
- Visit different courses during your stay
- Head out for food or drinks afterwards without worrying about getting back
Trying to coordinate taxis for early tee times or multiple players can get a bit awkward (and expensive) quite quickly.
🧭 Planning your golf trip
If you’re staying for more than a few days, it’s worth mixing it up rather than sticking to just one course.
A typical plan might be:
- A relaxed round at La Marquesa
- A premium day at Las Colinas
- One or two rounds at Villamartín or Campoamor
That way you get a bit of variety and experience different styles of course.
☀️ Best time of year to play
Golf on the Costa Blanca is popular pretty much all year round, but some months are better than others.
- Spring and autumn are ideal—warm but not too hot
- Summer can be very hot, so early morning tee times are best
- Winter is still mild compared to the UK, which is why it’s popular with visitors
✅ Final thoughts
If you’re into golf, Ciudad Quesada is a great base.
You’ve got several quality courses within a short drive, and the weather makes it possible to play almost any time of year.
Having a car just makes the whole experience easier—especially if you’re planning to visit more than one course.
