About the club

Desert Spring Resort brings an 18-hole desert golf course together with holiday accommodation, restaurants and a range of sports and wellbeing facilities. It is in Cuevas del Almanzora, in the province of Almería, part of Andalucía and the Costa de Almería.

For a golfer planning a stay in this part of Spain, the Indiana Course is the central attraction. Its desert landscape gives the golf its defining character, while an official connection with the DP World Tour adds a competitive dimension to the setting.

The Indiana Course

The resort presents the Indiana Course as Europe’s only desert competition golf course. It is also an official venue for a DP World Tour qualifying stage, a specific point of interest for visitors who follow the route into professional tour golf.

The course has 18 holes. Alongside it, the resort’s golf facilities include a clubhouse, a golf academy and a driving range, giving visitors more to consider than the round itself when putting together a golf-focused stay.

The academy and driving range are separate parts of that offer. If practice is part of your holiday plans, both are worth keeping in mind alongside the Indiana Course rather than treating the resort simply as somewhere to play 18 holes.

Restaurants and wellbeing

El Torrente and Club Cocodrilo are the resort’s two named restaurants. They form the dining side of an offer that also includes spa and wellbeing facilities, allowing food and time away from golf to feature in the same visit.

A gym and yoga add further options for physical activity and wellbeing. For travellers looking beyond a schedule made up entirely of golf, these are useful distinctions when considering what the resort offers as a whole.

Other sports and staying at the resort

Tennis and padel, cricket and a training circuit broaden the sporting facilities. That range is particularly relevant when comparing places for a trip with different sporting interests, or when you want golf to be one part of the stay rather than its only focus.

Holiday accommodation is also part of Desert Spring Resort’s offer, as are facilities for events and celebrations. Taken together, the course, practice facilities, dining and other activities make this a place to consider for a Costa de Almería stay built around golf, with other ways to spend your time.
