In 2003, Alvaro Arana put together a beautiful course featuring pine trees and orange groves on wonderful parkland turf. Just like it's neighbour, the North Course, the nearby marshes play a prominent role in the backdrop of this course and add to the character of the track. The South course is one that rewards accurate and clever golf, thinking your way around the course and playing conservative golf will put you in good positions to make a score.
The rolling terrain has some slight but beautiful elevation changes as you move through the course. The South at El Rompido Resort reserves its most spectacular feature to the very end. The 17th and 18th tees sit on a pontoon so you can play your tee shots over the marsh and onto the fairway beyond. This course is so much fun but those final two tee shots really leave you with a great impression of the place.

North Course
The inception of the North Course in 2006 confirmed El Rompido's position as one of the region's golfing leaders, and is well worth a stop during your golf holiday in Andalucia. Not the longest in the world, however, it is a course for smart golfers rather than long-bombers and requires well thought-out golf shots to score well. Set in the middle of the Marismas del Río Piedras Nature Reserve amongst mature pine and orange groves The North is a joy to behold with plenty of nature to compliment the golf course.
Most of the front-9 of this course makes its way along the Piedra River marshlands. The feel of the land and the inevitable southern Spanish heat gives the course a feel reminiscent of Florida. As you play the more inland back nine, the course has an absolute gem awaiting you.
The 16th is one of the highlights of the round and the short par-3 is not one to take lightly. At only 136-yards, you would be forgiven for letting the beauty of the marsh in the background and the lack of distance put you off. However, you will need to keep your wits about you as the green is protected by two of golf’s most fearsome hazards…coffin bunkers.
Both the North and South Courses have their own extensive practice ranges that are designed by golf professionals to offer the best practice facilities.

This is my second visit to El Rompido, it is clean, comfortable, the staff are wonderful and the food is delicious.
10 / 10
The bedrooms were very clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The food in the restaurant was good, varied and plentiful. Both bars catered for all of our needs and twice a duo was on the Son Saura bar at night and they played well to our gallery and we had fun! All the staff in the hotel were so helpful and they all appeared to be happy in their work. We used the Spa after golf which was very therapeutic. It was extremely clean and we had to wear a hat which helps with the cleanliness.

Our second visit here, both within this year for one week. The hotel common areas are spacious, calming and elegant. The staff are all very friendly and efficient whether in the hotel or golf club. Outside areas around the pool are excellent and a small supermarket next to the apartment blocks alongside the hotel is very handy. The restaurant for buffet breakfasts and dinners is great and efficiently organised with an excellent choice and variation of food. The bars are welcoming and often lively, but never rowdy, as this hotel in the golfing season attracts cultured and well mannered individuals.
We definitely will go back.

Very nice resort with good facilities with one exception - no tea/coffee making facility in the room. Resort very busy and consequently bars and in particular buffet struggled to cope on occasion.
Supermarket on site useful for purchasing bits and pieces

Moved from hotel to apartments (Spanish upgrade)Apartments where excellent Used hotel facilities as entitled.Diner a bit chaotic as only groups of 8 or more can reserve tables for meals.Majority of Staff excellent.
10 / 10
On arrival we were given the choice of up graded hotel rooms or self catering apartment across the road , which meant own ensuite rooms with kitchenette and lounge area , we chose the apartments but still had all our food in the main restaurant .
The 2nd upgrade was unexpected , upgraded to semi all inclusive , FANTASTIC .
10 / 10
Only one concern, after first week the restaurant in the morning changed its opening times from 07:00 to 07:30, we had early tee times each day at 08:00 which meant we would be rushing our breakfast especially if we were playing the north course, after a few golfers complained the tee time was reverted back to 07:00 but the hot breakfast food weren’t available till 07:30.
10 / 10
Excellent accommodation, very clean & comfortable, food was high quality with good choice. Pool area was spotless with more than adequate sunbeds, although this was outside of main holiday period ( mid June). Overall a very enjoyable experience.

An excellent location in a resort geared to golf groups of all sizes and all genders. Rooms are a good size with most having views of pool area. Restaurant food and choice is fine with excellent breakfasts. You can purchase and make up your own rolls for the course for just €2.!! Practice and clubhouse facilities very good.
10 / 10
Traveled with a group of 18,hotel staff could not do enough for all of us.
Some including myself upgraded to 2 room appartments well worth the extra for own room.
Both courses very well maintained absolute quality golf.
No complaints for 18 of us.
Will be going back.

Very spacious comfortable and calming hotel. The free room upgrade was great. The fellow guests were mostly northern european with a number of large groups (women mostly). The buffet dinner each evening offered different dishes each time with variety and quality. Breakfasts were great with many usual options. The staff everywhere were very attentive, pleasant and efficient. Thoroughly recommend this hotel.

The Precise Resort in El Rompido is advertised as 5 star accommodation, however, it is at best a 4 star. The staff are pleasant and the hotel is clean, but, the bedrooms and bathrooms are in need of an update. The buffet area in the dining room, for breakfast and evening meal, is inadequate for the amount of people, it has a very limited choice and frequently runs out with slow replenishment. The hotel also had an unusual policy of selling fruit at breakfast, i.e. bananas, apples, oranges etc. Several areas outside were being made ready for the ‘busy time’, ie, the decking and outside swimming pool, which we were told started in April. The indoor swimming pool incurred a cost of €3 for a ‘swimming hat and towel’. When you have already paid for the hotel, the purchase of fruit and extra charges for the pool, were slightly annoying. The weather was above average for our trip, however, there was no air conditioning, the reception staff stated that only the heating had been connected! The two golf courses were in very good condition and compliments to the green keepers.
10 / 10
Very comfortable room and good housekeeping. Staff are pleasant and helpful. It is a small hotel with one bar and a restaurant. The food is good but choice is limited. Overall it was a good experience and we will return there for more golf.
