Amarilla Golf & Country Club occupies a dramatic clifftop site on Tenerife's southern coast near San Miguel de Abona, where the volcanic landscape meets the Atlantic Ocean. The course was originally designed by Donald Steel and opened in 1998, taking advantage of the rugged terrain and coastal views that characterize this part of the Canary Islands. Subsequent work by Martin Ebert and involvement from other architects has refined the layout over the years, though Steel's routing remains the foundation of the design. The course plays across undulating volcanic rock formations with several holes running directly along the cliff edge, offering views across the ocean toward neighboring islands on clear days. The terrain creates natural elevation changes and the routing incorporates the existing lava fields into the strategic design. The signature hole is typically identified as the par-three 5th, which plays from an elevated tee to a green perched near the cliff face with the sea as a backdrop. Amarilla serves both residents and visitors in the popular golf tourism region of southern Tenerife, where the climate allows year-round play. The course shares its coastal setting with several other layouts that have made the island a destination for European golfers seeking winter sun. The club facilities include practice areas and dining options that cater to the international membership and visiting players who come to experience golf in this distinctive volcanic landscape.
