Bonalba Golf
Bonalba is the established choice just north of Alicante, a mature Ramon Espinosa layout above Mutxamel where lakes, fountains and ranks of trees frame a generous par 72. With its own hotel on site and a relaxed Mediterranean clubhouse, it is a comfortable and well rounded base only minutes from the city.

The verdict
Bonalba has been part of the Alicante golf scene long enough to have settled into itself, the trees grown tall and the greens matured, and it remains one of the most popular rounds north of the city. Ramon Espinosa's par 72 is generous off the tee but defended by water on a string of holes, so it suits a wide range of players while still asking a real question or two.
The package is part of the appeal: an on site hotel, a good clubhouse and restaurant, and a setting that feels green and established rather than newly minted. For a visiting group it is an easy, dependable base close to Alicante and within reach of the wider coast. See our best of Spain ranking and the golf in Spain guide for context.

Designer and par verified June 2026 from the club and recognized course databases. Bonalba Golf, by Ramon Espinosa, is a par 72 of roughly 6,370 meters near Mutxamel, with lakes, mature trees and an on site hotel. Green fees were around 68 euros for 18 holes as an indicative 2026 guide; figures change by season and year. Always confirm the current rate directly before booking.
The holes worth the trip
Bonalba opens up off the tee more than many courses in the area, giving the player room to swing, but Espinosa kept the test honest by bringing water into play across a number of holes, so the approach often has to flirt with a lake or carry one to a green beyond.
Mature trees, fountains and well kept greens give the round a settled, parkland feel, and the variety of hole shapes keeps it engaging for a full eighteen. It is a course you can score on with steady golf, yet one that punishes the careless second shot.
Its position just north of Alicante makes it a natural pairing with the airport side El Plantio and the courses of the southern coast for a varied Costa Blanca week from a single, central base.
