Almenara Golf Club

Playing golf in complete immersion in nature.

Adjacent to the Los Alcoronocales Natural Park in Andalusia, we find the magnificent Almenara Sotogrande Golf Club, the ideal place to enjoy a round of golf while simultaneously feeling completely immersed in nature. Designed by renowned British golf star and European Ryder Cup player Dave Thomas, the Almenara Sotogrande Golf Club features three circuits of picturesque golf holes that combine to create an 18-hole course. With two large lakes surrounded by cork oaks and olive trees, water is the central feature of Almenara's design, conveying a unique serenity. With views of the Mediterranean and the surrounding mountains, the course presents a true challenge for golfers of all levels, featuring deep bunkers, water hazards, rolling hills, and switchback fairways. Adding to its many attractions, let's not forget that the area boasts approximately 300 days of sunshine per year, making it an ideal place for golf. The area also offers accommodations at the exclusive SO/Sotogrande Resort & Spa, an elite hotel with an exclusive dining experience, considered one of Europe's most exclusive and private residential and lifestyle destinations. The region is home to the international airports of Gibraltar (20 minutes), Malaga (one hour), and Jerez (one hour), making it easy to get to.

Golf enthusiasts will soon have a new attraction: an Academy. Already underway, the Almenara Golf Academy complements the 18-hole Almenara course and will feature a 9-hole par-3 course designed by legendary golfer Manuel Pinero. The facility will also include a professional training center, featuring a professional training area, a dedicated tee line, and a short-game area, including practice greens.
