La Finca Golf Course Enhanced
The La Finca Golf Course in Alicante has been the recipient of a number of enhancements that have been implemented by Garden & Golf, a Madrid-based company expert in golf course maintenance and construction, over the course of the previous few months. The installation of additional sections of concrete roadways and improvements to the irrigation system are the primary components of these renovations. Together, these elements essentially outline the contours that the championship course is going to follow.

“Along with the construction of the concrete roads, earthworks were also carried out as part of the work that took place in order to integrate these roads with the greens in a further seamless approach. This provided an enormous challenge, as it is a difficult effort to achieve full integration into an existing golf course. Making it appear as if the roads were part of the initial construction,” explains Leopoldo Espinosa, who is the coordinator of the project responsible for improving the golf course experience in Costa Blanca.

The construction of the road involved the insertion of sump pits as well as the installation of curbs at essential spots, ensuring the safety of players. Simultaneously, efforts were aimed at improving the irrigation system, a common improvement in such endeavours, often focused on golf sustainability. This included the relocation and deletion of sprinklers to enhance the distribution of water and provide a more precise definition of the course layout, changes that were designed to improve your golf vacation at La Finca Golf Course and Resort.

Victoria and Old Course Renovation

Victoria and Old Course Renovation

Victoria and Old Course Renovation
After purchasing five courses and hotels in Vilamoura from the Dom Pedro Group, Arrow Global Portugal Group is now renovating two of the most famous courses in Europe, the Victoria Course and the Old Course.

The Victoria Golf Course, designed by American Arnold Palmer and widely regarded as one of the most difficult in Europe, closed for good on December 11, 2023, after nearly 20 years in operation. Its last tournament was the 35th Vilamoura Grand Trophy. The course, clubhouse, and their surroundings will all undergo extensive renovations as part of Victoria’s reopening in February 2025. Approximately 17 million euros have been set aside for this renovation.

The well-known South African professional Ernie Els, who is making his first appearance in Portugal, is creating the new course. Els and his architectural team recently designed the course’s makeover after spending a week in Vilamoura.

The former Victoria Golf Course has hosted the Portugal Masters sixteen times and the 2005 World Cup. The course closed in December, after operating for 19 and a half years. On February 20, 2025, it will reopen with a fresh layout.

At the same time, the Old Course, a golfing treasure in the Algarve, will be closed for about a month starting on December 11, 2023, and is expected to reopen in early January. The course’s design, fairways, and greens will be improved. The Old Course’s clubhouse is undergoing enhancements to better serve visitors.

Arrow Global Portugal Group is actively seeking to increase its presence in the Portuguese golfing market, as it has several courses throughout the country’s northern, central, and Algarve areas.

While the Victoria Course and the Old Course remain closed, other greens from the group remain available, such as Pinhal Golf Course, Laguna Golf Course, and Millenium Golf Course. You can book your green fee in Vilamoura directly with us here at Tee Times.
