To simply say that Sotogrande SA in Andalucia, Spain, is a high-end golf community is akin to saying Tiger Woods is a pretty good golfer. Founded in 1962, Sotogrande SA is the promoter and developer of the Sotogrande, Andalucia brand, and property that covers 20sq km of land in the province of Cadiz.
Within his area stretching from the Mediterranean Sea to the foothills of the Sierra Almenara, Sotogrande has a community of 2,500 permanent homes, more than 300 companies, and one of the best international schools in Spain, Sotogrande International School. The fact that it also has four world-renowned golf courses in Real Club Valderrama, Real Club Sotogrande, Almenara Golf Club, and La Reserva Club (host of the Aramco Team Series), is the proverbial cherry on top.
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.
For visitors, SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort Hotel is the first and only five-star hotel in Sotogrande. Hidden away in the Andalusian countryside, the resort allows guests to live life the Spanish way for a family holiday, golf weekend or spa break within a stylish five-star lifestyle and wellness retreat setting.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT SO/ SOTOGRANDE SPA AND GOLF RESORT'S FACILITIES?
Rita Jordao: The opening of the SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort Hotel has been a crucial addition to Sotogrande. It brings a new level of accommodation alongside the world-class amenities in Sotogrande and fits in perfectly with the overall quality of the destination and its golf courses, which are among the best in Spain and in Europe.
