Local Area Details

La Torre Golf Resort is on the Costa Calida of sunsoaked Murcia in south eastern Spain. The Murcia region has one of the most agreeable climates in Spain with temperatures averaging 21 C and around 320 days of sunshine every year.

The centrepiece of the resort is the 18-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course. But it is not all about golf. You can take a dip in one of the twenty-two luxury swimming pools on the resort, relax in a jacuzzi, practice your serve on the tennis courts or have fun with the kids at one of the children’s playgrounds. If you want a break from the action, you can browse the many shops or relax over a glass of the excellent local wine or enjoy fine dining in one of the several bars and restaurants.

There is a free shuttle bus service to the other Polaris resorts - currently El Valle, Hacienda Riquelme and Mar Menor Golf Resorts - but to make the most of the local area we strongly recommend you hire a car as there is no other public transport at present from the resort other than a bus in the evenings to the local town of Roldan.

The resort is a 20 minute drive from the safe sandy beaches of the Mar Menor Little Sea a warm natural lagoon sheltered from the main Mediterranean Sea by a long sand bank Along the coastline of the Mar Menor and the Mediterranean you will find miles of golden sand shallow waters and hidden coves enough to try a different beach for every day of your holiday.
