La Torre Golf Resort is on the Costa Cálida ('Warm Coast') in south-east Spain. The resort was built by Polaris World and features a 5-star hotel, bars, restaurants, golf course and other leisure facilities. Building started in 2002 and completed in 2005.
Hotel
The 133-bedroom, 5-star DoubleTree by Hilton La Torre Golf & Spa Resort is located within the resort, together with several bars, restaurants, shops, a large supermarket, a bank, two tennis courts and 22 communal swimming pools of various sizes. The town centre, located in the middle of the resort near the hotel, is a hub of activity, consisting of a hairdressing salon, an Irish bar, a night club, a small ice-cream shop, an Italian restaurant, a tapas bar and a few other features. [1] Initially managed by Intercontinental hotels, the hotel closed down in 2012 and was later acquired by a Chilean group, Pedro García Meroño and Facundo Armero, trading as Phoenix in 2016. From January 2019 the property is operating as DoubleTree by Hilton La Torre Golf & Spa Resort.
Golf
The Jack Nicklaus designed 18-hole par 68 golf course measures 5,350 metres, and forms part of the Polaris World Nicklaus Golf Trail.
Tennis
In September 2009, the resort played host to the Davis Cup semi-final between Spain and Israel, with crowds of up to 12,000 packing the temporary stadium erected specially for the three-day tennis event.[2]
