Sotogrande is one of the strongest sports and leisure destinations in Europe, with guests able to practice golf, tennis, polo, water sports, padel, and much more. Sotogrande is home to four championship golf courses: Real Club Valderrama (former Ryder Cup host), La Reserva Club (recent host of Aramco Team Series), Real Club Sotogrande (current DP World Tour venue) and Almenara Golf.
Set atop Sotogrande’s highest peak, La Reserva Club is the newest course in Sotogrande, designed in 2003 by American architect, Cabell B. Robinson. The championship layout features wide, sweeping fairways that lead onto large, undulating greens, alongside numerous challenging water hazards.
Almenara Golf, located on-site at the SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort, with the first tee just walking distance from hotel bedrooms, has recently undergone an extensive remodelling by legendary local golfer, Manuel Piñero.
At the recent World Luxury Hotel Awards, SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort was the recipient of two awards, winning the accolade for Best Luxury Lifestyle Resort in Europe, and Best Luxury Wellness Resort in Spain.
The nomination for World’s Best Golf Real Estate Venue comes at a time when Sotograndelaunches a series of new Real Estate projects and the recognition as one of the most exclusive and private residential destinations in Europe, and the World Golf Awards, is a reflection ofthe quality maintained over the past 6 decades, as well as the continuous investment in architectural innovation.
The newest district within Sotogrande, La Reserva is an exclusive, secure community that embraces the stylish apartments and penthouses of Village Verde, the individual sites that make up The Collection, alongside the breath-taking plot locations that make up The Seven and The 15.
