A 1986 Trent Jones design around El Hacho hill.
🛰️ The course from the sky↓
La Duquesa plays around El Hacho hill above the marina of La Duquesa in Manilva. Robert Trent Jones Sr designed it, and it opened in the late 1980s; sources date it between 1986 and 1989. It is a par 72 with two clear halves. The front nine is tight, with raised greens and deep bunkers in the classic Trent Jones style, so straight driving matters. The back nine is wider and kinder, with sea and mountain views from the higher holes. The hole players mention most is the short par-3 8th, which played as the 17th before the club swapped the nines. La Duquesa suits golfers who want a real Trent Jones design at a low price and accept simple conditioning in return. The 2026/27 operator lists show about 83 euros in high season, and booking sites often sell times for much less. Book through the club's own online tee sheet.
The operator list rate; booking sites often sell for less. The buggy is included.
While the course is rebuilt the club sells green fee packs: last season's card ran from 5 rounds at 162 euros to 20 rounds at 765, with buggies 25 to 33. Ask for the new card from late September (verified with the club, Aug 2026).

What the internet says
On Leadingcourses, La Duquesa scores 6.0 from 68 reviews (read 2026), and opinion is split. Golfshake users give 2.7 of 5 from 26 reviews, and 64 percent would play again, a low share for the coast. User reviews on Top100GolfCourses sit near 3 of 5. The praise: friendly staff, a varied layout, decent greens and a cheap round. The warning theme is condition, and it is constant: dry or worn fairways, missing signs between holes and dated facilities appear in review after review. Reviewers who enjoyed it went in expecting a budget course, not a polished one.
The course and the greens
Reviewers agree the course is in poor shape while the new owners rebuild it, with slow greens and uneven fairways after irrigation works. Visitors this year say the back nine plays better, and management told guests recovery needs about another year.
Arrival and the welcome
Visitors consistently praise very friendly, helpful staff. Several also mention the smart new clubhouse and the hotel that opened in December 2025.
