Santa Maria near Marbella

[Yorkshire Hacker]

A small group of us go to Malaga area every October. Over the years, we have played nearly every course from there down and beyond Marbella. Santa Maria seems to be one that we have missed. Has anyone any experience of playing there? The reviews are mixed.....slow play, poor organisation, and thieving on the course. However, many of the reviews say it's fantastic. I would welcome comments from fellow Forum members.

Its basically straight up a hill and back down again (underneath the motorway). Its not as bad as it sounds, there are a few good holes but in no way is it fantastic. Not bad for a fun hit if its cheap but its not on anyones must play list.

Nice course. Wouldn't recommend walking it if it's hot though. There are thieves at all courses in Spain just use common sense
