Golf Costa Adeje
Golf Costa Adeje is the tournament course of southwest Tenerife, a Pepe Gancedo design set on rolling ground above the resort coast at Adeje. A par 72 championship layout that has hosted European Tour golf, with a separate nine hole loop and ocean views, it pairs a real test with the easy logistics of a winter sun base.

The verdict
Golf Costa Adeje is the most serious test on the southwest Tenerife coast and the natural complement to the drama of Abama up the hill. Pepe Gancedo routed the championship course across an undulating, ravine cut landscape above Adeje, and it has the pedigree to back up the scenery, having hosted European Tour and Challenge Tour golf in the Canaries. There is a separate nine, Los Lagos, for a shorter loop.
It is a course that rewards good ball striking and sensible course management, with quick greens and a stiff finish, yet it sits minutes from the Costa Adeje resorts so the golf never feels like a trek. As a value championship round on a winter trip, it earns its place. See our best of Spain ranking and the golf in Spain guide for context.

Designer, par and length verified June 2026 from the club, Golf in Spain and Canary Islands tour records. Golf Costa Adeje, by Pepe Gancedo, is a par 72 championship course of roughly 6,203 meters above Adeje in southwest Tenerife, with a separate nine hole Los Lagos course, and has hosted European Tour golf. Green fees vary by season as an indicative 2026 guide; always confirm the current rate directly before booking.
The holes worth the trip
Costa Adeje plays across a sloping shelf of land split by deep barrancos, the dry ravines that thread the southwest of the island, and Gancedo used them as natural hazards that frame several carries and force a decision off the tee. The par 5s are reachable for the bigger hitter but flirt with the ravine edges, while the longer par 4s ask for two clean, committed shots into greens that run fast and true.
The conditioning is a strength, with paspalum fairways that hold up to the salt air and quick, tifEagle greens that put a premium on a tidy short game. There are ocean views from the higher holes and the bulk of the island rising inland, and the closing stretch has enough teeth to settle a match. It plays as a genuine championship eighteen rather than a soft resort course.
With the nine hole Los Lagos on hand for an extra loop or a relaxed afternoon, it suits a group that wants competitive golf without the premium of Abama. As the value round of a southwest Tenerife week, it balances the trip nicely.
