La Cala Resort Costa del Sol

La Cala Resort – Golf paradise on the Costa del Sol

From a golfer’s perspective, La Cala Resort in Mijas, Andalusia, is a real highlight among European golf destinations. Nestled in the rolling hills of the Costa del Sol, just 30 minutes from Málaga Airport, the resort offers everything a golfer could wish for: three spectacular 18-hole golf courses, a top-class hotel complex and a Mediterranean lifestyle that instantly puts you in the holiday mood.

Three championship courses – Asia, Europe & America

What makes La Cala Golf Resort so special are its three in-house championship courses, designed by Cabell B. Robinson. Each course has its own character and challenges golfers in different ways:

Asia Course – Technically demanding, with narrow fairways, elevated greens and spectacular views. Ideal for precise players who appreciate strategic course management.

Europe Course – Slightly more open in design, but with sophisticated water hazards and an exciting layout. Perfect for intermediate to good players who love variety.

America Course – The course with the most expansive fairways and spectacular panoramic views of the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Particularly popular with players who like to ‘unpack their drivers’.

With a total of 54 holes, La Cala is the largest golf resort in Spain – and one of the most versatile in Europe.

Hotel & facilities

La Cala Hotel & Spa** is an elegant 4-star superior hotel in Andalusian style. It is located directly on the golf course and offers modern, bright rooms with views over the fairways and the surrounding mountain landscape. After your round, relax in the spacious spa area with sauna, steam bath and whirlpool – or simply enjoy the sunset on the terrace with a glass of Rioja.

Several restaurants and bars offering regional specialities and international cuisine cater to your culinary needs. Particularly popular is the ‘La Terraza’ restaurant, where you can dine with a view of the golf course.

Training facilities

La Cala is not only a resort for holiday golfers, but also a popular destination for training groups and pro groups. The Golf Academy offers an excellently equipped practice area with a driving range, putting greens, short game area and even a par-3 practice facility – ideal for perfecting your short game.

Location & leisure

Just 10 minutes from Mijas and 20 minutes from Marbella, La Cala is ideally located for combining golf with trips to the coast or inland. Beach lovers will also get their money’s worth – the beaches of the Costa del Sol are only a few kilometres away.

Conclusion

La Cala Resort is more than just a hotel with golf courses – it is a complete golfing experience. Three varied courses, excellent training facilities, a stylish hotel and a fantastic location make it one of the best golf resorts in Spain.

If you are planning a golf trip to the Costa del Sol, La Cala is a must – whether for a week of golf, a long weekend or an intensive training camp.
