Sotogrande is on the western side of the Costa del Sol and just over 35 minutes from Gibraltar Airport and 65 minutes from Malaga Airport. Sotogrande is upmarket with very smart villas, a marina and fine choice of brasseries and restaurants. It’s undoubtedly the most beautiful area on the south coast.
The golf in the area is super-strong with the likes of San Roque, La Reserva, Finca Cortesin, Valderrama and Sotogrande all rated among the very finest in Europe. All the golf courses are within a very short drive from the hotel and the famous marina is six miles away. I’ve included Hacienda Links, La Reserva, Valderrama and a round on the hotel’s own golf course as your loosener on the Sunday. It’s a tremendously strong golf itinerary with a touch of links, parkland and woodland, all with very stylish clubhouses.
The SO Sotogrande resort is a very smart rejuvenation of the hotel adjacent to the Almenara golf course and is a leisure, dining and wellness destination with four restaurants and superb fitness and spa facilities. The 152 bedrooms are dotted around the hotel grounds. The hotel has all-year heated pools, pretty gardens and a brand-new golf academy. The So Comfy bedroom comes with terrace or balcony, bath and rain shower.
