A PLACE OF TRADITION AND TIMELESS BEAUTY

With a postcard-perfect position in the foothills of the Serrania de Ronda mountains, just above the Mediterranean Sea, our Marbella golf hotel is surrounded by some of Andalucas most captivating sights and attractions.

As well as world-class golf courses, glitzy marinas and golden-sand beaches, the Costa del Sol has characterful old towns, sleepy pueblos blancos and rugged landscapes ripe for exploring. Expect a lively time: this is the part of Spain where flamenco and tapas originated and that has a feria (fair) for just about every occasion.

[The hillside white-washed village of Ojen Andalucia]

Ojen – 25km away

Sitting pretty in the foothills of the Serrania de Ronda, Ojen has an easy, laid-back charm.
