Golf News - Garcia ready for another special week in Valderrama

by María Acacia López-Bachiller

He is aiming for a third Andalucia Valderrama Masters title, after also winning here in 2011, but it is a week that is about more than just golf for the 2017 Masters Tournament champion, as the event is hosted by the Sergio Garcia Foundation for the second successive year.

New Flamenco - Ketama

The marijouana buds that decorate this Madrid trio’s website give a clue as to the origin of their name; the dope-growing region of Ketama in north Africa. Wildly popular with young Spaniards, with a street cred aided by their public affection for ‘chocolate’, Ketama mix flamenco with African music, guitar pop, hip-hop and house, and their concerts frequently sell out.

Independent Hotels on the Costa de la Luz

An independent hotel is one which is owned and run individually, without being part of a larger chain or company. Technically, all those which are not directly related to a hotel chain can be classed as independent.

In these types of hotels, guests can expect a more personalised style of service compared to corporately owned hotels. Moreover, staff who work in these hotels usually have specific and reliable knowledge of the local area, and can therefore offer information on the location, activities, best places to eat, and what to see and during your stay.
