Golf Club Salinas de Antigua — Attraction in Antigua

We're just back home from a weeks golf in Fuerteventura. I don't see why some of the reviews of the Salinas course are negative, especially when compared to the Fuerteventura course, which is now a shadow of a course with 5 holes severely shortened for the men, while considerably more expensive to play. Okay, the course is going through tough times, but I love it. The lakes may be dry, but you still have to hit top quality shots if you don't want to lose balls.

Yes the course could do with some investment in the surroundings, the Salinas development as a whole, club shop/karts, range (the netting wasn’t fixed down and the mats need replacing), the pins (flags are fraying). It was also a shame to see a couple of the...

VILLA 100 – MAY 2019 We stayed for one week as a family of four. On arrival at our villa, we was overjoyed at the space the décor and the view which was exceptional. No expense spared on furniture we found everything in working order and plenty of cutlery glasses plates. (Having read other review stating that there wasn’t enough cutlery etc ).

Fresh towels delivered mid week also which was a added bonus. We have said that there is nothing we can find fault in at all.
