On 25th November, the 2024 idealista Golf Circuit concluded with an event at Los Naranjos Golf Club in Marbella, featuring over 100 players, primarily from international backgrounds. This tournament followed previous events held at the Real Club de Golf Guadalmina and El Paraíso Golf Club, both also located on the Costa del Sol.
Across the three events organised this year, more than 300 golfers took part, blending local members from each course with idealista’s invited guests, creating a fantastic social and golfing atmosphere.
The selected courses are among the most prestigious on the Costa del Sol. El Paraíso was designed by Gary Player, while Los Naranjos Golf Club is the work of the legendary Robert Trent Jones Jr. Guadalmina, one of the first courses built in Spain, was created by the most renowned Spanish designer, Javier Arana.
The 2024 idealista Golf Circuit concludes with an overwhelmingly positive outcome, showcasing that golf is much more than a sport. It is about connection, lifestyle, and, in this case, a bridge between brands and strategic destinations like the Costa del Sol.
Francisco Iñareta, spokesperson for idealista, highlights the importance of the company's connection with the province of Málaga, stating, “The Costa del Sol is not only a benchmark for tourism and golf but also a key market for us. Participating in initiatives like this reinforces our commitment to the region and allows us to connect with a diverse and discerning audience.”
For the organisation of this circuit, idealista collaborated with Bacar3s Golf and received the support of all the clubs where the events were held.
