The Marbella Golf Club

The Marbella Golf and Country Club

Once very private but now open to visitors, The Golf Club Marbella is a difficult but enjoyable challenge.

Designed by Robert Trent Jones it is a long golf course with opening holes crossed by ravines and gulleys which require accurate and brave tee shots. The 4th hole, a par-3, is just tee and green, while everything in between is bandit country. The 12th is a sheer pleasure with memorable sea views.
