In turn this commitment to excellence and the desire to produce such high quality facilities has been reconised by the p g a with the unque development of four branded golf academies at the four Calidona venues in the South East region of Spain.

Corvera golf and country club will become the P G As of europe training academy where golf professionals from all over europe will be able to train all year round especially during winter months when the weather conditions in their own country may prevent them from playing and practicing.

According to Bruno Dureux, Calidonas managing director the buisness model of Calidona and the quality of our productshas rapidly made Calidona one of the most outstanding promoters of residential golf complexes in unque locations- our privileged location, in the region of Murcia 10 minutes away from the airport of San Javier and 5 minutes from the mediterranean sea, makes it possible for players from all over europe to enjoy the practise of golf 365 days of the year, it gives us great pride and satisfaction that such a prestious international institution  like the P G A has shown trust in Calidona projects.
