Condado De Alhama Golf Resort

Resort blogger

For some of the finest golf courses in Europe, and one of the best climates in the world, there really is only one location to buy a Polaris World golf property and that’s Murcia, Spain. And if you’re choosing a golf resort here why not opt for the largest resort so far at Condado de Alhama. At 9 million square metres this resort is larger than the other Polaris World golf resorts put together and once complete will possess three Jack Nicklaus designed golf courses. There is no better time to have a look at what this resort has to offer as a new town centre was finished in July 2009 adding more first rate facilities to what is already one of the best resorts in the world.

Condado de Alhama Golf Resort

The Polaris World Condado de Alhama golf resort is in the Valle del Guadalentn area of Murcia, Spain. Situated in the foothills of Sierra Espuna and Carrascoy-El Valle, two regional nature reserves, the resort is divided into three areas: Los Jardines de Alhama, Los Naranjos de Alhama and La Isla del Condado.

Los Jardines de Alhama

Translated this means ‘The Gardens of Alhama’ and the area, as you would suppose, is spacious and green with properties built around landscaped gardens and swimming pools. The Los Jardines development is pedestrianised with dedicated cycle lanes enabling residents to walk or cycle around the parks and enjoy the extensive variety of plant life. Los Jardines de Alhama is very family friendly with its separate play areas for children and it also has first-rate sports facilities including tennis courts, football pitches and basketball courts. The properties are built in a traditional Mediterranean style with architecture that blends in effortlessly with the manicured surroundings.

Los Naranjos de Alhama

‘Naranjos’ is the name given to a native orange tree of the region and this area of Condado de Alhama is lined with the attractive tree on its streets, within its gardens and around its squares. Los Naranjos is in the heart of the golf resort and once had its own town centre called El Agora. This town centre has been extended to include the new resort town centre called El Foro providing an even bigger collection of facilities just a short walk away along the leafy avenues. Properties in Los Naranjos have a stepped architectural design and the penthouses look out onto the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course (under construction – due for completion in December 2009).

La Isla del Condado

Condado de Alhama translated means ‘Alhama County’ which is where the resort is situated in Murcia. La Isla del Condado means ‘The Island of the County’ and this area is an apartment complex on an island on the lake in the centre of the golf resort. La Isla is a waterfront setting that stretches down to the main town centre of El Foro. Residents benefit from stunning views from their apartments across the lake as well as three infinity pools that give the impression of being part of the lake itself. La Isla has tranquil boulevards and green spaces that incorporate children’s play areas. Around the lake are several piers from which a ferry service runs to the town centre.

El Foro & El Oasis Town Centre

The focus of activity at the Condado de Alhama golf resort is within the El Foro and El Oasis town centres. El Foro means ‘The Forum’ and this vast 12,000 square metre complex includes the relocated El Agora town centre which initially served the Los Naranjos complex. Designed in a Hispanic-Arabic style around a courtyard with a large central water feature, the El Foro town centre is due to open this month (July 2009) and along with the 60,000 square metre El Oasis town centre provides bars, restaurants, banks, stores, supermarkets, hairdressers, launderettes, pharmacies, restaurants, cinemas and healthcare services to residents.

Kearney Dog Sled Races Good For North Muskoka Resorts

Resort blogger

For the eighteenth year, the Kearney Dog Sled Races will take place in the beautiful Ontario Near-North tourist region of the Almaguin Highlands, just north of Muskoka, Ontario. This very popular annual winter event draws spectators and participants from right across Canada and the United States and is important to the area’s tourist-based economy. The Kearney races are the only ones in Ontario that feature sprints, ski-joring, mid- distance and a long distance race. Michael Piraino, co-owner of Northridge Inn & Resort (http://www.northridgeinn.com), a full service four-season North Muskoka resort on Lake Bernard, looks forward to the annual dog sledding event each year. “Major winter events like the Kearney Dog Sled Races benefit the community a great deal because they draw a significant number of visitors to the area and the publicity that surrounds these events boosts public awareness about North Muskoka and all that the area has to offer visitors,” states Piraino.

This year, a record number of dog sled teams will be competing for a combined total of $18,000, the largest prize purse in Kearney Dog Sled Race history. On Friday, February 10th, race weekend starts off with a family-friendly evening skate, bonfire with free hot dogs and hot chocolate. The dog sled races are scheduled for Saturday, February 11th and Sunday, February 12th and include a variety of races for every skill level, such as a 40 mile race, a 6 mile race, a 4 mile race, ski joring and, the always popular, kids and their mutts race. The highlight of the Kearney Races is the gruelling 120 mile unassisted overnight dog sled race, where teams have only a four hour break to rest and feed their dogs. The weekend wraps up on Sunday night with prize presentations and a spaghetti supper.

The Kearney Race weekend is considered to be one of the highlight of the Almaguin Highland’s winter season, because of the wide variety of activities available for visitors and race participants to enjoy, including several special dinners, silent auctions, kid’s activities, volunteer fire department ice rescue demonstrations, giant snow sculptures, and live entertainment. Area businesses, including restaurants, shops, and accommodation providers have come to rely on the increased number of visitors that the race brings to the area.

“Almaguin Highlands has experienced an increase in winter tourism over the past few years due to consistently reliable great snow conditions and popular winter events like the Kearney Dog Sled Races. Our winter resort business has increased substantially as well, as more and more people discover what a great place Muskoka north is for an Ontario winter getaway. Ontario’s Near North tourism area offers visitors some of the best snowmobile trails in the province, as well as remarkable ice-fishing, Nordic ski trails and dog sledding excursions. The beauty of our winter landscape is second to none. Once again, Mother Nature is on our side. We already have a good two foot base of snow on the trails making ideal snow conditions for dog sledding and snowmobiling. We encourage everyone to visit the Almaguin Highlands for the Kearney Dog sled races. It’s a terrific event for the entire family,” says Piraino.

The Spanish Swinger resorts are quite popular when compared to the Caribbean ones. Most of the British swingers don’t see this as a disadvantage, rather, they prefer to avoid the pre-organized events, which on the other hand are very much popular with the swingers of USA, who prefer the resorts present in the Caribbean. In Spain, the Swinger resorts are often no bigger than a large villa which is at least suitable for accommodating as few as four couples per holiday.
Around twenty minutes away from Spain’s Costa Blanca (the white coast), there is one such resort that consists of four luxury villas. These villas are located in a very beautiful valley and offer seclusion and natural beauty for all those who want to enjoy a quiet but still a highly erotic holiday.

Swinger couples who are renting these villas share naked sunbathing around a lovely swimming pool. The only time the holiday becomes a bit more organized is on Saturday nights when the swinger parties are held. Most of the people there are the visitors who may be staying at the Swinger resorts in that area and also there are some local swingers as well.

In Spain there is a swinger holiday hotel consisting of eighty rooms and three suites for swinger groups. The hotel is located on the Costa Del Sol very near to Malaga. Further east along the coast another similar villa offers swinger holidays with regular parties.

On the Canary Islands there are popular swinger resort, on Fuerteventura and Tenerife. On Gran Canaria there is a popular swinger party venue where one can find something going on any night of the week.

The Swinger resorts referred to above are just a few examples from the various resorts that are growing up in Spain. The ones which are described above are located in the coastal region but if one does not mind being an hour or so from the nearest beach then there are some very good resorts to be found further inland.

Resort blogger

Grupo Mayans Brio Spa provides the best in luxuriant spa experience. As a guest of Grupo Mayans Brio Spa, you can enjoy an invigorating facial after a long day on the beach, a soothing body wrap after hours of playing tennis or a rejuvenating manicure or pedicure after taking a run on the beach.

A spa is a relaxing place that inspires the mind and creates an atmosphere of serenity and calm. The first step to creating your in home spa experience is to find a clean bathroom, free from clutter. Create Brios Spa ambience by adding some citrus or coconut scented candles reminiscent of Brio Spas citrus scrubs and body gels. Since the Grupo Mayan Brio Spa offers massages on the beach, find a soothing CD emulating the sound of the ocean. Water has a soothing effect and this will add an extra touch of serenity to your spa experience.

After transforming your bathroom into a mini-spa, you are going to want to stock your room with a warm towel, a robe, comfortable slippers, bubble bath, a scented body scrub, a rich, creamy body lotion, a facial mud mask and some rose petals. Fill your bathtub with warm water and the bubble bath. Scatter the rose petals in various places throughout the tub. Lather your face with your mud mask and soak your body in the soothing bubble bath. Before you get out, scrub you skin with your scented body scrub, paying special attention to your elbows, knees and heels of your feet. When you get out, wrap yourself in the warm comfort of your towel and with slightly damp skin rub your creamy body lotion. Putting on body lotion with slightly damp skin will help your skin retain its moisture longer. Put on your robe and sit back and relax. Enjoy the sound of the ocean and the smell of your scented candles.
