Río Real Golf

Río Real has been part of Marbella since 1965 and is the work of Javier Arana, widely regarded as Spain's greatest course architect. The par 72 of just over 6,000 m follows the river valley of the same name down toward the beach, with mature pines and eucalyptus and some of the most demanding greens on the coast. A boutique hotel sits beside the clubhouse. Visitors are welcome; green fees are typically in the 90 to 115 euro range.
