Golf
This development of Nuevo Portil is set around its namesake golf club, which is quite a course weaving through the houses with some fine holes some over water. The house is located on Hoya 14 of the course which covers an area completely surrounded by pine trees. Founded in 2002, and designed by Alfonso Vidaor maintains its initial flavour with wide fairways and soft pleasant greens.

Guest comments
Extremely well furnished through out in a beautifull secure complex, an absolute credit to its owners. Lots of lovely restaurants, bars and beaches to choose from and great for the kids too. If you want rural Spain at reasonable prices look no further, but don't forget your phrase book. We will be coming back and will also recommend to our friends and family. Fantastic.
