I've played golf there a couple of times in the last year or so; and before that had stayed in rental villas there.
In my opinion, the course is still in good condition and appears to be quite busy - they certainly haven't lowered green fees to attract more customers!
The resort appears very well-maintained, clean & tidy and the bar was busy with golfers on the afternoons that I played. The shop was open and well-stocked. The gate is always manned by a security guard.
There were lots of cars on drives to villas and also plenty of cars near the apartments (although these could be golfers'), which would indicate good occupancy rates.
Yes, there are a lot of properties for sale, but it may be that these are just the same properties that are not moving as the owners are trying to get unrealistic prices for them. Although, I do believe that properties are certainly more realistically priced than they were 10 years ago most properties are now being offered for 50% - 70% of their asking prices at the peak of the market.
Interestingly, a new development called Altaona is being built practically next door to El Valle, as what appears to be an expansion of the Mosa Trajectum development. Altaona has some very modern and very expensive villas advertised for sale, but I haven't visited and don't know anything about the resort or the golf course.
