Why Play Golf Melia Villaitana Levante
Levante is the full-length course at the Villaitana golf resort. It plays as 18 holes to a par of 72 and stretches to 6,500 metres from the black tees, which makes it the stronger test of the two layouts at the resort and the one most visiting golfers ask for when they want a proper championship round near Benidorm. It opened in 2004 alongside the Meliá hotels that sit on the property, so course and accommodation were planned together.
From the black tees it is rated 75.6 with a slope of 133; the white tees measure 6,100 metres and rate 73.3, and the yellow tees come back to 5,700 metres and 70.8. Ladies play 5,300 metres from the blue tees, rated 67.8 with a slope of 129, or 4,900 metres from the red tees at 65.1 and a slope of 115. The difference between the back and the forward markers is a full 1,600 metres, so a mixed group can play together without anyone being overwhelmed or under-tested.
Playing Levante Golf at Villaitana
The playing experience is built around strategy rather than brute length. Bunkers are positioned where a loose shot naturally finishes, and the greens are shaped to reward an approach played from the correct side of the fairway. Pick the wrong line off the tee and the hole is still playable, but the second shot becomes far more awkward, which is the sort of course management that keeps better players interested over 18 holes.
The resort sits on rising ground above Benidorm, so the round is played with a mountain backdrop on one side and Mediterranean scenery on the other, and conditioning is held to resort standard through the winter months when most visiting groups arrive on the Costa Blanca. Because the site carries two 18-hole courses, a stay here does not mean repeating the same round: the par 72 Levante is the full test, and the par 62 Poniente next door is the shorter, gentler companion.
