Welcome

Gonzalo Glez.-Fierro Díaz (President)

I am very pleased to welcome new players to our Club, either as a new member or as a visitor/guest to our facilities, as we are a members Club, open to the public.

The Club de Golf Ifach, being the 4th oldest club in the Valencian Community and the 3rd oldest club in the Province of Alicante is a true pioneer of this great sport. In 2024 we will celebrate our 50th year Anniversary of the Club – all the facilities recently have been reformed and refurbished throughout the complex – where we’ll look to the future with renewed enthusiasm to offer our customers the very best service.

In addition to a 9-hole golf course, the complex has a small practice area, 3 tennis courts, a large top level restaurant with swimming pool, solarium, a bar/cafeteria with TV, billiards and library, club storage room, pro-shop, office, car parks, etc...
The unbeatable views that can be seen from its facilities are iconic images of the Costa Blanca and Golf in the Community.
It is a great Club to enjoy with the family due to its variety of activities and facilities and has always been perceived among its members for being a "Club of friends", for all the social activities it has always been known for.

Our temperature is mild almost all year round and more than 320 days of sunshine are guaranteed. The environment is quiet, peaceful and very well cared for.

For all these reasons I invite anyone who is curious to visit our club - be they a golfer, a tennis player or just a visitor only interested in having some photos taken in these privileged surroundings - to spend a fantastic family day at our facilities. I assure you that you will not regret it.
