Hotel Guadalmina Spa & Golf resort is only at 6 km from Puerto Banus and 10 minutes drive from Marbella Old Town and is located on the beachfront and surrounded by the 2 golf courses of Guadalmina.
South Guadalmina, the first 18 holes of the 45 that make up the golf course of Guadalmina, was opened in 1959 and is the second oldest in the Costa del Sol. It is characterised by the fairways that wind through the shade of ancient trees. The fairways are wide and are virtually free of rough. In 2002 the Guadalmina Sur course was completely renovated and is now, to all intents and purposes, a new course with new tees including “Super-Seniors”. The greens were rebuilt and the fairways re-seeded.
Guadalmina North is considered less complicated than Guadalmina Sur. Although it covers more ground, is more undulating and contains more trees and water hazards. The Guadalmina River divides the course from north to south, and comes into play on the 17th. If this were not enough, there are lakes on holes 7, 9, 11 and 18. The course was designed by Folco Nardi and opened in 1972
There are options available to upgrade to play at guests choice of Rio Real, Los Naranjos, Alcadaisa Links, Valle Romano, Atalya Old, Santa Clara or El Paraiso
