Golf Costa Adeje

Down the terraces towards La Gomera.

Golf Costa Adeje sits on the slopes above Tenerife’s busiest holiday coast, on land that used to grow bananas. The Spanish architect Pepe Gancedo kept the farm terraces and their dry-stone walls, so many fairways step down the hill in tiers towards the Atlantic, with La Gomera on the horizon. There are 27 holes: an 18-hole Championship Course that has hosted European Tour and Ladies European Tour events, and Los Lagos, a short nine built around six lakes. Tee times are sold online to anyone, and the winter rate card is published in full.

Golf Costa Adeje green fees and tee times.

Tee times are booked online through the club’s booking engine, run by the iMaster/TeeOne platform. You can also phone +34 922 710 000 or email reservas@golfcostaadeje.com.

Late cancellations and no-shows are charged in full. The Championship Course has a handicap limit of 28 for men and 36 for women, so bring proof of your handicap.

The courses at Golf Costa Adeje.

Championship Course (18 holes, par 72)

Gancedo’s main layout, routed over the former plantation terraces with the Atlantic below most holes. The men’s handicap limit is 28 and the women’s 36. The full winter green fee is €145, with early and late offers below that. Allow four and a half hours: that is the club’s own pace-of-play target.

Los Lagos (9 holes, par 33)

A shorter loop named after the six lakes woven through it, with direct access from the Suite Villa María hotel. The club pitches it at anyone wanting a quick round or time to work on their technique, with limits of 36 for men and 45 for women. A winter nine-hole round is €47, and the course also runs seasonal footgolf.

The round, in perspective.

The Championship Course is a par 72 of about 6,200 metres from the back tees, as listed by where2golf. It opened in 1998; the club marked its first quarter-century in 2023. The front nine runs downhill from the clubhouse. On the 3rd and 4th, fairways drop over old terraces divided by the original stone walls, so a long drive can run off one level onto the next. The par-three 5th is played from near the shoreline back up to a raised, well-bunkered green. The bunkers were once black volcanic sand and are now white. The back nine stays inland and climbs. It opens with a long par three, stroke index 2, that often plays into the wind. The 15th, a par four, is the highest point, with views of the sea and the mountains. The last three holes drop back down the terraces towards the clubhouse. The course hosted the European Ladies Open in 2005, 2008 and 2009, and the Tenerife Open in 2021.

Make the trip work.

Winter here means 1 November to 31 March on the rate card, and that is when the full €145 fee applies. Multi-round vouchers make sense for a week’s stay: three rounds cost €390 and five cost €615 in winter. The card is cheaper from May to October: €110 in May, September and October. The summer 2026 card listed €73 for 18 holes and offered buggy-and-lunch packages, so a late-spring or autumn trip saves money if you can cope with more heat. The terraced front nine is hilly, and the €42 buggy is worth it if you are not used to steep walks. The 45,000 m² driving range has a two-tier hitting platform. The Club House restaurant is open to non-golfers every day.

Tenerife South (TFS) is the nearest airport, roughly 25 minutes west along the TF-1 motorway. Leave the TF-1 at the Adeje exit and follow the signs up the hill to the course. Tenerife North (TFN), used mainly by inter-island and some Spanish mainland flights, is on the far side of the island. Taxis from Costa Adeje’s hotels are quick, but a hire car helps if you want to play other southern courses.

Somewhere to settle in.

Suite Villa María, inside the golf complex, is a five-star hotel of 78 separate villas, each with a terrace and garden. Some have a heated private pool and others a jacuzzi. It gives direct access to Los Lagos and connects to the Championship Course. Below the course, the Costa Adeje hotel zone around Playa del Duque and Fañabé is a few minutes’ drive away, with large beachfront resorts. Self-catering apartments in Torviscas and Playa de las Américas cost less for longer stays.

Make a trip of it.

Abama, Dave Thomas’s lake-filled course above Playa San Juan, is about 20 minutes north-west. Golf Las Américas is ten minutes south, near the resort strip. Golf del Sur and Amarilla, side by side near the airport, round out a week. Off the course, ferries to La Gomera sail from Los Cristianos, and the drive up to Teide National Park takes about an hour. Its cable car runs most of the way up the volcano.

Find your season.

The club gives an average annual temperature of 22°C, and the course is open all year. The winter rate season, November to March, matches peak demand from northern Europe, so book early around Christmas and February half-term. May, September and October bring lower fees. In summer the Championship Course hosts corporate, society and local amateur competitions.
