MIrava Golf & GourmetLa Galiana Golf.
A hidden valley course carved through Mediterranean pine forest, named Spain's best in 2019.
Overview
Opened in 2011 and designed by Felipe Rodríguez and the Moon Masters studio, La Galiana sits in a secluded valley south of Valencia, its fairways terraced into hilly terrain and flanked by preserved pine forest. The elevation changes are the course's defining feature — generous, well-defined fairways run through a landscape of rolling hills and lakes, with strategically placed bunkers guarding the greens. It was named Best Golf Course in Spain at the 2019 World Golf Awards, and its GEO sustainability certification reflects a course built with real care for the surrounding landscape.
Why Mirava chose it
La Galiana gives a Golf & Gourmet trip its scenic, "getaway" day — a secluded valley setting that feels far removed from the coast, distinct from Mirava's other more resort-adjacent courses. The on-site hotel and dining make it easy to build a slower, half-day-into-lunch itinerary around the round rather than rushing to the next stop.
