FAQs: Golf holidays in Costa Adeje

What's the best time of year for a golf holiday in Costa Adeje?

With the Canary Islands being so close to the equator, the weather is warm and sunny all year round. That means you can play golf in Costa Adeje at any time of year, and the courses are usually open 365 days. If you're on a budget, keep in mind that green fees are at their lowest in the summer months, as the heat can make playing a round of golf rather sticky and uncomfortable. Accommodation may be pricier at this time, though, as families from across Europe flock to the Canaries for their summer holiday. October to April is peak golfing season, attracting visitors who want guaranteed sunshine when their home courses are wet and cold. The trade winds keep things comfortable on the course even on warmer days.

Do golf clubs in Costa Adeje have a strict dress code?

Yes. As a rule of thumb, you can expect most golf clubs in Costa Adeje to follow the same strict dress code that is commonly enforced in clubs across Spain. You'll need to wear a pair of tailored trousers or shorts, a collared shirt, and appropriate footwear. Logos and beachwear are not permitted. If you're planning a last-minute trip to Tenerife and you don't have the right clothes, you can usually buy them at the pro shop, but prices are often steep.

How much does it cost to play golf in Costa Adeje?

Prices vary at different golf courses in Costa Adeje. Winter is peak season, with prices at their highest from October to April; bargain hunters should visit in summer. In general, you should budget around €100 to €120 for a round of 18 holes in winter, but some courses are more expensive: Golf Costa Adeje can cost €140 or more. Save money by getting an early bird or twilight deal, or looking for discount package rates. Many resorts in the area sell golf passes that bundle several courses together at a discount, which is excellent value if you're planning to play multiple rounds. Buggy hire is usually an additional €25-€35, although several clubs include it in their winter peak-season green fee.

Does Costa Adeje have golf facilities for kids?

Yes. If your kids want to play on a proper course, take them to the 9-hole option at Golf Costa Adeje. Alternatively, Amarilla Golf is suitable for all skill levels, and gives youngsters the chance to play a full 18 holes. This club is particularly welcoming to families, offering a warm, friendly atmosphere. Several courses in south Tenerife run summer junior clinics with qualified pros, and most clubs offer reduced rates for players under 18. If your children are very young or just starting out, the practice greens and driving ranges at the main clubs are usually open to non-members for a small fee, and there are crazy-golf facilities in several of the larger resorts.

Do I need a handicap certificate to play golf in Costa Adeje?

You should always bring your handicap certificate, as some clubs will demand to see it, although others may be more relaxed. In general, Golf Costa Adeje is quite strict about the matter, and will not let golfers play without a valid certificate. Other clubs in the area may be more lenient, but it's best to bring it with you anyway, just to be on the safe side. A digital copy on your phone is usually fine, but a printed version is a sensible back-up. The typical maximum handicap accepted is 28 for men and 36 for women, although some clubs may waive the certificate requirement outside peak times if you can demonstrate sufficient skill on the practice range first.
