Its time for golf in Marbella.
In theory, golfers can play in Marbella all year round, but the heat of the summer months can prove too testing for many lovers of the sport. However, September, with its slight drop in temperatures that makes a day out on the fairways an altogether much more appealing affair, is the perfect time for the golf season in Marbella to start again. Marbella is blessed with an array of superb golf courses to choose from and Rio Real golf club to the east of the town is one of its best. Designed by Javier Arana, one of the best Spanish golf course designers of all time, its 18-hole, 6,000m long course has been attracting professional and amateur golfers since it opened in 1965. The Royal Spanish Golf Federation considers it to be one of the most prestigious courses on the Costa del Sol—and one of the best in Spain! Its location, which is a mere five-minute drive from the centre of chic Marbella with its charming Old Town, its stylish restaurants and beautiful promenade, has made it a popular resort for those who want to live near a golf course year round, as well as those property owners who are looking for a holiday home in Marbella that is perfectly situated to take advantage of the golf season. The natural environment on this eastern side of Marbella is renowned for its green spaces and residents of Rio Real are surrounded by pine, palm, olive and cypress trees that provide shade and a feeling of tranquillity whatever time of year it is. The clear views of the Mediterranean from this point also add to its many attractions, as do its Blue Flag beaches and fashionable beach clubs, such as Trocadero Arena and La Cabâne at Los Monteros. It is undoubtedly a residential area that exudes exclusivity and sophistication. La Finca de Marbella is a modern development of exclusive villas and townhouses that embodies both of those values. This high-end, private community of residences offers the best of both worlds; the peacefulness of a secluded spot that is also within a few minutes of all the essential amenities. Situated on gently sloping ground, the southwest-facing properties offer both sea and mountain views, and the choice of a modern architectural style that is ‘on trend’ with the market, blended with the age-old olive groves, is an integral part of the overall vision for La Finca. As the developers of La Finca announced in the promotional literature: “In blending nature and modernity we wish to offer the best of both worlds; a location that is peaceful and secure, yet central and convenient.” La Finca de Marbella couldn’t be more convenient for golfers, with the course just minutes away.
