Golf Society Trips to Costa Blanca and Murcia
Costa Blanca and Murcia By The Golf Planet Holidays Team · Golf-travel specialists since 1981 · Published 1 June 2026 At a glance How much does a Costa Blanca or Murcia golf society trip cost?

Organising a society trip is a thankless job. You chase deposits, juggle dietary requirements, herd 20 grown men through an airport, and somehow you are the one who ends up playing the worst golf of the week because you were on the phone to the hotel at midnight sorting a double-booked room. We have watched a lot of organisers go through this, and we think there is a better way: let a specialist do the heavy lifting so you can actually enjoy the trip you built.
Golf Planet Holidays has been arranging tailor-made golf trips since 1981. For a UK society of 12 to 24 players, the Costa Blanca and Murcia are about as good as it gets: short flights, reliable sunshine, a tight cluster of quality courses, and group rates that make the maths work. Trips start from £259 per person ground-only, and on bookings this size the organiser very often plays free.
Why Costa Blanca and Murcia suit a golf society
Two regions, one easy trip. The Costa Blanca and neighbouring Murcia pack more golf into a small radius than almost anywhere in mainland Spain, which is exactly what a society wants: more golf, less coach time, and a base everyone can settle into for the week.
The courses we use here are genuine society favourites. La Finca Golf near Alicante is a generous, well-conditioned parkland that flatters mid-handicappers and still has enough teeth to settle the order of merit. La Torre Golf and El Valle Golf are classic desert-style layouts in Murcia, framed by the resort villages around them. Hacienda Riquelme and Altorreal Golf round out the rota with contrasting tests, so you can build a week where no two rounds feel the same. It is the kind of variety that keeps a competitive society talking in the bar long after the cards are signed.
Where your society stays
Get the base right and half the organising stress disappears. We match the hotel to the group, the budget and the golf, with options across both regions.
In Murcia, the Occidental 7 Coronas sits on the river in the heart of the city, handy for the Murcia courses and for groups who want bars and restaurants on the doorstep rather than a quiet resort. The Tryp Rincon de Pepe, also in Murcia, is another central, sociable choice that society groups take to easily. Over on the Costa Blanca, Villaitana Resort Golf near Benidorm is a proper golf resort with the room capacity to keep a party of 24 together under one roof. We will tell you honestly which suits your group rather than which earns us the most.

The organiser does less, gets more
This is the part that matters to the person reading this. When you book through us, you make one enquiry and we handle the rest: flights as an ATOL-protected add-on if you want them, transfers, tee times across multiple courses, rooming lists, and a single GBP invoice instead of a pile of receipts in three currencies. Hosted and escorted group options are available too, so the on-the-ground running can be taken off your plate entirely.
On a society booking of 12 to 24, group rates apply and the organiser very often plays free or travels at a reduced rate. And because we are ATOL Protected with your money held in trust through PTS until you have travelled, the deposits you collect from your members are safe right up to the moment the wheels go up. You carry the responsibility of organising the trip; you should not also carry the financial risk.

Frequently asked questions
How many players do we need for a society trip?
Our Costa Blanca and Murcia society trips are built for groups of roughly 12 to 24 players, which is the sweet spot for group rates and for keeping everyone in one hotel. We can quote for slightly smaller or larger parties too, so tell us your number when you enquire.
Does the organiser really play free?
On bookings of this size the organiser very often plays free or travels at a reduced rate. The exact benefit depends on your final headcount and dates, and we will confirm it in writing before you commit. Just let us know who is organising when you get in touch.
Is the trip ATOL protected and is our deposit safe?
Yes. Golf Planet Holidays is ATOL Protected, and your money is held in trust through PTS until you have travelled, so every member’s deposit is safeguarded right up to departure. Flights, when you want them, are arranged as an ATOL-protected add-on.
Can someone host or run the trip for us?
Yes. Hosted and escorted group options are available, covering tee times, transfers and day-to-day logistics on the ground. It is popular with larger societies and first-time organisers who would rather play golf than manage the group all week. Mention it when you enquire and we will build it into your quote.
