It is with great pleasure and pride we announce that Desert Springs Resort, Europe’s only international award-winning luxury family resort and championship desert golf course in the Almeria region of Andalucía, south-east Spain, has been awarded as one of the top 100 European Golf Resorts 2023 by National Club Golfer Magazine.
National Club Golfer is a cross-platform golf media brand, providing free-to-access golf content online through social, and via both a print and digital magazine, and when last ABC-audited, was the UK’s highest-circulating golf title.
The ranking criteria used by the team of panelists, weighted golf over accommodation, however, perhaps controversially for a golf magazine, it believes that for a resort golf is not the be all and end all, because many will want to travel with friends or family who may not want to play 36-holes on back-to-back days.
National Club Golfer commented; “We can vouch for every single entry on this list – our definitive guide to the finest ‘Stay-and-Play’ destinations on the continent. Competition is fierce and nowhere breaks the Top 100 without being amongst the best.”
Desert Springs Resort Director of Golf, Simon Coaker remarked;
“This Award shines a spotlight on those who offer the best of the best in the golf travel market. Being recognised by National Club Golfer Magazine as one of the top 100 European Golf Resorts provides a true sense of pride for the entire team at Desert Springs Resort.
The award acts as both recognition of the quality of the resort and the performance of the whole team at Desert Springs and celebrates what makes golf travel memorable.
With the knowledge that the ranking criteria is judged by a panel of industry experts, this award confirms a true vote of both recognition and confidence to our business and one that all at Desert Springs Resort are extremely proud to have received.”
