WESTIN LA QUINTA RESORT 5*
La Quinta Golf comprises three loops of nine holes each, all designed by Manuel Pinero, a member of Europe's 1985 Ryder Cup winning team. All wrapped around the hotel complex, the three courses can be combined differently to offer distinctive challenges, around what is one of Andalucia's premier golfing venues.
San Pedro Course
San Pedro is the original course at La Quinta, and forms the backbone of the toughest course make-up. There is a good variety of holes, with some delightful par-3s being off-set by exacting long holes, where finding the correct position off the tee is crucial. The highlight is the 5th, where the fairway is banked on either side by mature pine trees and out-of-bounds.
Ronda Course
Named in honour of a beautiful local village, the Ronda course will test the precision and accuracy of every golfer with undulating fairways and fast, difficult greens. There are blind tee shots to be negotiated, while the most demanding proposition is undoubtedly the long 6th, requiring three good strikes to find the target.
Guadaiza Course
Set against the backdrop of the awe-inspiring Sierra Blanca mountain range, the Guadaiza is the newest addition to La Quinta Golf. It is also the longest of the three loops, demanding powerful and accurate drives. Negotiating the three successive par-5s is the key to mastering the Guadaiza.

The luxurious La Quinta resort is nestled in the heart of Marbella's golf valley, loacted only minutes from the golden sand and azure blue water of the coast, and the boutiques and nightlife of Marbella and Puerto Banus.
Set amidst the stunning gardens, the hotel has a wide range of high quality guest rooms from deluxe, grand deluxe and ‘workout' rooms to opulent suites, all of which are perfectly equipped to ensure total comfort and relaxation.
All rooms reflect the traditional Andalucian style, with recurring motifs such as terracotta tiles and woven cane furniture. Bedroom amenities include climate control, while the private balconies and terraces allow guests to relax and enjoy the views over the golf course and the surrounding hills.
Arguably among the finest hotels in all of Andalucia, La Quinta is the choice for the traveller seeking added luxury as part of a golfing holiday.
La Quinta's amazing spa is brand new, and has been influenced by the Arabic and Andalucian heritage of the region. Every single feature has been specifically designed to soothe all the senses, while the complex is complete with wet and dry areas, a sauna, Turkish bath, jacuzzis, massages, rassul therapy and aromatherapy. There is an enormous outdoor swimming pool with surrounding sun terrace, and also a well-equipped gym with state-of-the-art training equipment.
Puerto Banus is home to one of Europe's most glamourous and glitzy harbours, where visitors can soak up the Hollywood atmosphere in the shadow of the monstrous yachts moored at the marina. This is the hub of the town, where there are countless bars and restaurants, ideal for the early evening. The town is known for its lively atmosphere, and while there are a string of piano bars along the beachfront, the real action takes place in the numerous late night clubs, where the music continues until the early morning. The town of Marbella is bigger, with many fine boutiques, and great activities for families, including a theme park. Also worth a visit is the historic town of Ronda, which is famous for the cavernous gorge that runs through its centre.
La Quinta is home to the International Golf Academy, where Manuel Pinero leads an outstanding facility that runs dedicated tuition and instruction clinics.
If you're feeling thirsty, choose from the amazing Arabian themed Aljama Lounge, or chill out with a cocktail at the El Mirador Pool Bar.
The Kaede Japanese restaurant is perched above the dramatic coastline, where bold Eastern dishes are served at communal teppanyaki tables.
At the Los Arcos Restaurant, age-old local flavours are fused imaginatively with the best in modern international cuisine.
