Maspalomas Golf Course
Maspalomas Golf Course opened in 1968, designed by Mackenzie Ross — the same architect behind Turnberry and the current layout at Real Club de Golf Las Palmas — and is generally regarded as the first tourist golf course built in Spain. It sits beside the Maspalomas Dunes Nature Reserve in the south of Gran Canaria, a short walk from the beach.
The course runs 18 holes, par 73, flat and long, with wide, forgiving fairways and only two holes bringing water into play. Strategically placed bunkers and the steady Atlantic trade winds do most of the defending, so distance control matters more than the flat layout suggests. It particularly suits beginners and higher handicappers; stronger players may find it a gentler test than some of the island's newer courses. The course has hosted international tournaments over its long history.
Facilities include a two-storey driving range with a reach beyond 300 metres, two putting greens, a pitching green, a Trackman simulator with a resident pro, a pro shop, restaurant and snack bar, a buggy bar out on the course, and even pilates sessions for golfers and non-golfing partners alike. Book Maspalomas through Tee Times for an easy-walking, well-maintained round with more history behind it than almost any other course on the island.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Course is on the easier side but this was good for me. Really great condition. Would of been good for the Bar buggy to come round but apart from that great experience.

Couldn’t be more helpful and jovial. A lovely greeting by the reception team and a very jovial greeting by the caddy master. Just what you need!!

Always enjoy playing at Maspalomas, they keep the course in great condition, especially given the heavy use it gets. People are great, warm, attentive. It's flat track and lower hc golfers will find it boring/not challenging enough; but you should at least play it the once and go from there.

Very enjoyable round of golf - quality of greens was very good. Staff extremely friendly. Layout more interesting towards the final few holes.
