Myself and 7 mates (kind of like an unofficial society) are looking to book a trip to Spain next year at the end of April ideally to play 3 rounds of golf, staying 2 nights. So fly out early Friday morning and play Fri afternoon, then Saturday before playing early Sunday morning to fly back late on the Sunday.
I've had a brief look at Flights + accommodation and we could get something for around £230 each. We'd then need to add on the costs for car hire + green fees.
I have also contacted the usual Golf Travel Operators and been given a few quotes around the £300 mark for the golf and 2 nights accommodation, but we'd need to pay the £200 for the flights, so about £500 all in.
Can anyone that has done a similar trip either recommend some areas and/or course (we're completely open to suggestions) and advise if we'd actually get better value sorting travel and accommodation ourselves and just paying the green fees? Looking at some courses the green fees seem to be in the 60 - 120 euro range with buggies so I'm guessing going through a golf travel company makes more sense because there are little savings to be had and in theory they will deal with the courses and tee times won't be lost in translation or misunderstood etc. but interested to hear from anyone that has done it in the past.
Cheers
