The course was designed by legendary golfer Seve Ballesteros, who commented “I have designed a course where most of the holes offer different alternatives to their denouement. These different options ask for very implying strokes”. It opened up in Autumn 2003.

The Course
Buenavista is an 18 hole 72-par-course that covers a length of 6.150 meters. The clubhouse has some spectacular views from all the terraces out over the course and down to the Atlantic Ocean.

The course has 6 holes of par 3, par 4 and par 5. Some of the most demanding holes on the course include the par fours (on the outward nine) and par threes (on the inward route). The greatest precision is required for the par threes at the 15th and 17th, as they are right beside the coast. At some of the holes on the course, it feels like you’re hitting directly into the ocean.

The 5 hole greens are located close to the cliffs that stretch along Tenerife’s rocky coastline. The powerful Atlantic swells create some spectacular wave breaks here, which are literally thunderous!

As much as possible, the fairways have been designed to respect the natural contours and surrounding landscape conditions.

One of the course’s water features runs all the way down to the Atlantic. It starts off at the well next to the old Hacienda de la Fuente by the 1st hole and runs all the way down to the 17th hole before entering the ocean.

Normally the course is only open to groups of 8 or more but often they can place you in a group with others to make up the right numbers. Contact them in advance to make sure…
