The ranking showcases outstanding courses from 34 countries across six continents<\/strong>, with Augusta National<\/strong>, home of The Masters, taking the top spot.

A spectacular course overlooking the Mediterranean<\/h3>\n

Redesigned in 2022<\/strong> by renowned American architect Kurtis Bowman<\/strong>, the par-72 Links Course combines championship golf with one of the most dramatic settings in Europe.

A world-class golf and lifestyle destination<\/h3>\n

The resort has extensively upgraded both its Links<\/strong> and Heathland<\/strong><\/a> championship courses, modernised its golf academy and enhanced its facilities with a new clubhouse and halfway house.<\/p>\n

Its international profile was further elevated in 2025 with the opening of the five-star Fairmont La Hacienda Costa del Sol<\/strong>, adding a luxury hospitality dimension to one of Southern Europe\u2019s fastest-growing golf resorts.<\/p>\n

The hotel features 150 guest rooms, 156 suites and 47 private villas<\/strong>, offering preferential access to both championship courses alongside a premium wellness, dining and lifestyle experience.<\/p>\n
