Santa María Golf & Country Club

Santa María Golf & Country Club is one of the most elegantly appointed courses in the Marbella area, occupying a privileged spot in the Elviria district on the eastern outskirts of the city. The course is woven through a protected pine forest that has been carefully preserved to provide natural corridors, shade, and a sense of tranquil seclusion. Fairways are generously proportioned but framed by the trees, rewarding accuracy and course management over sheer power. The greens are well-regarded for their consistency and pace, making putting a genuine skill test on every hole. A 19th-century Andalusian farmhouse at the club's heart adds historic character and sets the tone for the warm, country-club atmosphere that regulars return to season after season. Santa María is an excellent choice for golfers who want a refined experience on the Costa del Sol without the crowds of the larger resort venues.
