Is hiring golf clubs in Benidorm worth it? 

Yes. In 2026, hiring premium TaylorMade golf clubs in Benidorm is more cost-effective than paying rising airline “oversized baggage” fees. Beyond the savings, it eliminates the risk of transit damage, removes the stress of airport logistics, and allows you to play with the latest equipment. Union Jack Golf Benidorm provides door-to-door delivery or shop collection on Calle Gerona. 

The True Cost of Flying Your Clubs to Spain

We’ve all been there—standing at the oversized baggage carousel at Alicante Airport, praying your driver hasn’t been snapped in half by a disgruntled baggage handler. In 2026, the “budget” airlines have made flying with your own gear more of a headache than ever. Between the base fee for a golf bag and the “hidden” weight surcharges, you could easily spend £80 to £120 just to get your old set to the Costa Blanca.

When you choose Benidorm Golf Club Hire, you aren’t just saving money; you’re buying peace of mind. Why lug a heavy flight bag through a packed terminal when you can land, hop into one of our private Costa Blanca golf transfers, and find a premium set of sticks waiting for you at your hotel?

Premium Gear vs. The “Old Set” in the Garage

One of the biggest myths about hiring clubs is that you’ll end up with a mismatched set of rusty irons from the 90s. At Union Jack Golf, Gill manages our premium TaylorMade rental fleet. We pride ourselves on offering gear that is likely newer—and cleaner—than the set you have at home.

Whether you are tackling the championship Levante Course at Melia Villaitana or the scenic fairways of Altea Club de Golf, having the latest technology in your hands makes a difference to your scorecard

Local Tip: Mind the Afternoon Breezes

If you are playing the Levante Course at Melia Villaitana, keep an eye on the clock. The wind tends to whip up off the Mediterranean and funnel through the valley around the 14th hole in the mid-afternoon. If you’ve hired our latest TaylorMade drivers, you’ll appreciate extra stability and low spin to keep your ball on the fairway when the “Benidorm breeze” tries to ruin your par.

Who Should Hire and Who Should Bring?

• The Stag Group: If you are here for a Benidorm golf holiday focused on fun, hiring is a no-brainer. It means more room in the taxi for the lads and zero stress at the airport.
• The Serious Low-Handicapper: Even if you’re a scratch golfer, our TaylorMade club rental offers various shaft flexes and configurations to suit your game.
• The “One Day Only” Golfer: If you’re on a family holiday and just fancy one of our Benidorm golf days out, hiring is the only sensible option.
