La Quinta Golf & Country Club, Golf course in Benahavís, Spain
La Quinta Golf features 27 holes divided among three courses named San Pedro, Ronda, and Guadaiza. Each course offers its own layout with distinct playing conditions shaped by the surrounding terrain.
The facility opened in 1989 and expanded afterward to include more holes. This growth reflected Spain's development as a golfing destination during the following decades.
The facility brings together golfers from around the world who come to play on its three distinct courses. This gathering of international players has helped establish the region as a top golfing destination in southern Spain.
The club sits in the hills above the coast, roughly 10 km inland from San Pedro Alcántara and Marbella, reached by the A-7 or the Ronda road. A valid handicap certificate is required at reception, with limits of 28 for men and 36 for women. Book tee times ahead in winter high season, and expect slower play in the afternoon heat of July and August.
The three courses use different sections of the land, with one part featuring flat playing areas and another offering rolling terrain. Pine forests and water hazards shape the strategy needed for each round.
