ALOHA GOLF CLUB<br />

Aloha is owned and run by its members, so, for their own<br />

enjoyment, they insist that the course is kept in excellent<br />

condition all year while sustaining a friendly, welcoming<br />

‘laid back’ atmosphere. Due to the policy <strong>of</strong> continuous<br />

improvement, Aloha has become one <strong>of</strong> the top clubs<br />

in Andalucia over the years.<br />

The course was designed by Javier Arana, one <strong>of</strong> the top<br />

Spanish course designers, and opened in 1975. Arana<br />

took great care in planting trees that provide flowers<br />

and colour at all times <strong>of</strong> the year enhancing the<br />

course's natural beauty to the enjoyment <strong>of</strong> the player. It<br />

may not be long by modern PGA standards, but the<br />

intricate layout <strong>of</strong> the 18-hole course makes for a true<br />

test <strong>of</strong> golf for all handicaps. While most <strong>of</strong> the fairways<br />

are lined by trees and there are several water hazards,<br />

the large greens are well guarded, challenging the<br />

golfer to hit every kind <strong>of</strong> shot, be it slice or draw, straight<br />

and accurately.<br />

As comfort and hospitality are <strong>of</strong> major importance to<br />

the members and management, Aloha’s restaurant<br />

received the highest food distinction awarded by the<br />

PGA European Tour. Further delightful refreshments<br />

await the golfer at “Chiringuito’s” halfway house. The<br />

friendly Aloha staff will wait on guests at the fully<br />

stacked Pro Shop and the new ‘golf reception’ as well.<br />

Aloha es un Club privado gestionado por sus Socios para su<br />

propio disfrute, con un Campo mantenido en excelentes condiciones<br />

durante todo el año, y con un ambiente social amigable y<br />

acogedor. Gracias a su política de continua mejora del Club,<br />

Aloha se ha situado con los años como uno de los mejores<br />

Clubes de Andalucía.<br />

El Campo fue diseñado por Javier Arana, uno de los mejores<br />

diseñadores españoles, e inaugurado en 1.975. Arana puso mucho<br />

esmero en plantar una arboleda que floreciera en todas las<br />

épocas del año, para que el jugador disfrutara aún más de la<br />

belleza natural del entorno y del recorrido. Puede que no sea un<br />

campo muy largo de acuerdo a los estándares actuales de la<br />

PGA, pero el diseño intrincado del sus 18 hoyos hacen de él un<br />

verdadero reto para cualquier hándicap. Las calles están perfectamente<br />

definidas por la arboleda, cuenta con varios obstáculos<br />

de agua a lo largo del recorrido, y sus grandes greenes están bien<br />

protegidos. Es un desafío que obliga a manejar la bola de todas<br />

las formas posibles, al draw, al fade, o recta y precisa.<br />

Como el confort y el bienestar son fundamentales para sus Socios<br />

y la Gerencia, Aloha cuenta con un magnífico Restaurante, que<br />

recibió la máxima distinción por parte del Tour Europeo. Además,<br />

una deliciosa variedad de aperitivos aguardan al jugador en el<br />

Chiringuito del hoyo 9. Quienes visiten Aloha se encontrarán en la<br />

Recepción del Club, situada en el Pro-Shop, un personal amigable<br />

que <strong>of</strong>rece una atención de máxima calidad.<br />

Aloha is a traditional Parkland Course where<br />

instead <strong>of</strong> booming a drive on every tee<br />

it is necessary to think your way round and<br />

use other clubs in the bag<br />
