Friday 2, April 2010
La Manga Club’s excellence as a golf and leisure resort has been recognised with a hat-trick of nominations in the World Travel Awards 2010. The awards have been dubbed the travel industry’s Oscars and the luxurious Spanish resort has been nominated as Europe’s leading golf and leisure resort, Europe’s leading golf resort and Spain’s leading golf resort.
La Manga Club’s CEO Adrian Constant said: “La Manga Club was the first resort destination in Europe and it is remarkably impressive that it has led the way for nearly 40 years since then.
“These nominations are the latest in a long line of plaudits to highlight the fact that La Manga Club is one of the finest resorts in the world. We’re delighted to have been recognised and I’m certain there will be a lot more success to come.”
The resort will find out if it has been successful in the three categories at the World Travel Awards’ Europe Gala Ceremony in Turkey on October 1.
