You can check your tee off times at the Hyatt Regengy Hotel Reception, on the notice board in the Golf Administration office and with the Inmogolf switchboard. Also listed on the La Manga Club internal TV channel. There is also training and practice facilities including a floodlit driving range with 80 practice bays, two chipping greens, a practice bunker and a large practice green.

The North Course was originally designed by Robert Putman before being refurbished not so long ago. Accuracy is the name of the game round here as you are required to keep it straight off the tee. The greens have been constructed to USGA standards and are among the best in Spain. Its closing stretch of holes are its best characteristic and, with the 18th green languishing under the nose of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, this is one the grandest finishes in European golf.

The South Course is another of Putman's designs, although Arnold Palmer did make a few adjustments in 1992. A long championship course, the South has played host to numerous events including the Spanish Open (both men's and women's), PGA Championships and Qualifying Schools for both men's and ladies' European Tours.

The West Course is the archetypal Dave Thomas design that requires you to think throughout your round as you try and overcome subtle elevations while staying relatively straight off the tee. In keeping with all Thomas' designs, this provides a fun-filled 18 holes.
