Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time of year to play golf at Lorca Resort Golf & Spa?
We highly recommend visiting Lorca in the spring (March-May) or autumn (September-November). The weather is pleasantly warm, perfect for a full round, and you'll avoid the intense summer heat that can make midday play a real slog. Plus, the course is usually in prime condition during these shoulder seasons.
How challenging is the 18-hole course at Lorca Resort for different handicaps?
The 18-hole Par 71 course at Lorca offers a fair but engaging challenge. You'll find it's quite forgiving off the tee on many holes, but the greens are often well-protected and demand precise approach shots, which keeps things interesting for lower handicappers. Higher handicappers will appreciate the wider fairways but should be prepared for some strategic bunkering.
What should I know about the 9-hole course currently under construction at Lorca Resort?
While the 9-hole course is still a work in progress, we've seen the plans and it promises to be a fantastic addition, likely offering a quicker, more relaxed option. For now, focus on the excellent 18-hole layout; we'll update you as soon as the new nine is ready for play, but don't let its absence deter your visit.
Is the "Spa" part of Lorca Resort Golf & Spa worth experiencing after a round?
Absolutely, the spa at Lorca is a real highlight and a perfect way to unwind after your game. We found the facilities to be top-notch, offering a serene environment for relaxation and recovery. Treat yourself to a massage or simply enjoy the thermal circuit; it genuinely enhances the whole resort experience.
How does Lorca Resort compare in terms of value and overall experience to other golf resorts in Spain?
Lorca offers excellent value, especially when you consider the quality of the course and the resort amenities. You're getting a well-maintained, enjoyable course with a great spa at a more accessible price point than some of the more famous, often overcrowded, Spanish destinations. It's a solid choice for a golf trip without breaking the bank.
