About Buenavista Golf Course
Buenavista Golf course is perched in the north-west corner of the island and definitely worth the journey. This very well-maintained Seve Ballesteros-designed course is a good challenge from the first hole, but it is possible to post a good score if you don't give up too soon. Watch out for the signature S built into the golf course.
Surrounded by a mountain range and The Atlantic Ocean, the flora and the fauna on the course is distracting and, sadly, great ball traps. Five greens are close to the small cliffs which give an impression of hitting right into the water! All the clubs in your bag are required. Not long but Buenavista makes for a delightful day out. 40 miles north of Playa de las Americas. You can also play and stay at the adult-only Melia Hacienda del Conde Hotel and spa right next door. This makes a great two-centre base with the south of the island.

Our take
Worth the journey to Tenerife's far north-west, this Seve Ballesteros design saves its hardest questions for the 9th and 10th, back to back just as the Atlantic wind starts to tell.
- Serious golfersA good score is possible if you stay patient through the turn; look out for the signature S Seve built into the routing, and give the ocean wind an extra club of respect.
- Higher handicapsIt challenges you from the very first hole and the temptation is to give up early; don't, the course lets you score if you hang on, and a buggy takes the sting out of the hills.
- Buddy tripsThe round your group will still be talking about at dinner: mountains on one side, the Atlantic on the other, and plenty of needle when the wind wrecks somebody's card at the turn.

What you are actually facing
The walk. Hilly — we would take a buggy. 200 metres of climb over eighteen holes.
The wind. The wind is usually north-easterly, averaging 19 km/h, gusting to 40. It is the club selection that catches people out, not the yardage.
The water. Water is very much in play across this course. Bring a few more balls than you think you need.
The design. Seve Ballesteros.
The holes that will cost you. The 10th, the 9th and the 1st. The 10th is the one you will be talking about afterwards.
