La Finca part of the Quara group have recently opened a 5 star Hotel. The hotel overlooks the excellent La Finca golf course which is a firm favourite of many of our golfers.The team there led by Salvador Lucas are always happy to help and we have had many golfers telling us of how well they were look after at La Finca.
La Finca has generally been in the top 5 courses when our golfers come to this area .The course was opened in 2002 and has been developed to challenge many of our best golfers and still extremely playable for beginners.
