One of the Costa Blanca's oldest and most storied courses — a mature, established golf community at the heart of Orihuela Costa since 1972.
Designed by American architect Robert Dean "Bob" Putman and opened in 1972, Villamartín is one of the true veterans of Costa Blanca golf. The front nine climbs to the highest point of the property with sweeping Mediterranean views, while the back nine drops into valleys where barrancos and water come into play — a course that demands every club in the bag.
Over five decades, mature pines and palms have given the course a settled, established character that no new development can replicate. Its famous par-3 17th, crossed by a tree-lined rambla, has been played by Severiano Ballesteros, José María Olazábal and Ian Woosnam.
Villamartín is more than a course: it's the anchor of one of the Costa Blanca's largest, most established international communities, with decades of daily life built around it.
An 18-hole layout that uses every club in the bag, with a recently restored clubhouse and practice greens.
The clubhouse restaurant's roof terrace overlooks the 18th green — one of the best post-round settings on the coast.
Las Colinas and Las Ramblas are both minutes away, all part of the same well-connected golf belt.
Villacosta, Eagles Nest, Montegolf and other neighbourhoods form a mature, cosmopolitan community around the course.
La Zenia and Cabo Roig, with their beaches and La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, are a short drive away.
A largely English-speaking and Northern European resident base, with decades of infrastructure built around them.
Villas, townhouses and apartments within the Villamartín golf community, updated as new listings come to market.
Woningen laden…
Villamartín sits at the heart of Orihuela Costa, close to the N-332 and AP-7, with both Alicante and Murcia airports reachable in under an hour.
"Some courses are new and shiny. Villamartín is proven — for fifty years running."
For buyers who value an established, walkable golf community with decades of infrastructure, restaurants and international neighbours already in place, Villamartín remains one of the safest choices on the coast.
Over 50 years of continuous international ownership and rental demand.
Restaurants, shops, medical services and schools have grown up around the course over decades.
Compared with newer showcase resorts, Villamartín typically offers more affordable entry with strong resale liquidity.
