Everytime i return to Marbella, i play Los Naranjos. Greens smooth and fast, fairways and bunkers immaculate and of the course, great service and good food
Superb!
Reviewed March 29, 2019
Thank you to the team of Naranjos Golf Club.
The service, friendliness and care was just perfect. Very accommodating team from the arrival, check in at the shop, restaurant terrace and the starter.
Loved it! The course was in immaculate conditions. I am a bogey golfer but would recommend the course to all levels. You can even walk which is rather rare along the Costa del Sol.
We will be back!
Absolutely worth playing
Reviewed March 11, 2014
Played the course in the beginning of March 2014 and must say it was in excellent shape. Clearly, the new owners want to present the course as a classy one among all the Costa del Sol courses and it is good!
Great difference between the hilly first nine and the more lake course second nine. The greens were good but they are not unfair!
Personally, I liked the second nine better...
Price is steep but worth it in my opinion. Has some really nice and difficult par 5s...
Enjoyable course
Reviewed July 12, 2013
Played it from the black tees and had a nice round. The fairways are easy to hit and you have the ball in play everywhere if you avoid the water hazards. Receptive but a bit of bumpy greens.
Excellent course
Reviewed April 4, 2012
November 2011 we played with a group of 24 friends some courses around Marbella. Los Naranjos was in very good condition. Fairways and greens were difficult but in excelent condition.

Unfortunately overcrowded
Reviewed November 27, 2023
The course is varied, especially the first 9, not overly difficult, but because of the very fast greens and the marks, which unfortunately are often not repaired by players, you will have problems achieving a good score. The high frequency of players prevents really relaxed gaming. In our case, we were assigned a "member", a terrible bully and apparently completely rude. Not only did he neither greet nor say goodbye to the two ladies playing with me, but he also made derogatory comments when things went wrong. A disgrace to the game of golf.
Finally: really excellent restaurant!

Very touristy, rather too easy
Reviewed May 10, 2023
This golf course is very popular among tourists and is particularly suitable for higher handicaps. Very well maintained wide and clear fairways. You can usually continue playing well after a bad tee shot and hardly ever lose a ball. Little challenge for ambitious, better players. Therefore only three stars. Otherwise everything is ok. Nice setting and pretty flat. Also suitable for playing on foot.

Interesting fairways
Reviewed March 20, 2023
After 2015 again on site, the place presented itself quite okay. I don't think it's as bad as my prescribers see it.
Exciting fairways, especially the first nine, hilly, slopes, several water hazards. Tee boxes well, fairways good, bunkers too, greens fast, but with some unsightly bald spots.
The back nine are not that interesting, but fair.
The greens are always well defended with large bunkers.
Knowledge of the course is required in order to achieve a good score.
In any case, you can recommend the place from my point of view. Great fairway 18 and the architecture of the clubhouse.

Descent, unfortunately only 3 stars
Reviewed March 20, 2023
The condition of the place is only average. Lots of bare spots on the fairways and some greens covered with pitch marks. I find some lanes to be unfair when the balls always roll towards the water on heavily sloping fairways because the entire area is mowed extremely short. The first nine lanes are hilly, then it becomes absolutely flat, but also boring. Extremely annoying GPS system in the buggy, full of ads and very often the cart is stopped because you allegedly lost your way. All in all, for an overpriced €130 including buggy, it was an experience that we will not repeat.
Positive: very friendly staff, noble clubhouse and fruit on the round. Even with a 30% discount, we would prefer other places.

Place great - service restaurant inattentive
Reviewed March 1, 2023
The four of us played a wonderful round yesterday and were looking forward to a nice dinner in the restaurant.
Within 10 minutes we were ignored by 8 service people. They were obviously less overwhelmed by the guests present, but more by their mobile phones and the gossip among themselves.
Then we went somewhere else to eat. That's why it's only 3*
A pity!!!

Descent- almost three stars
Reviewed February 22, 2023
Have played the course three times in the last six years. Unfortunately the system got worse from time to time. Care condition more than questionable with many bald spots and on the other hand unmown areas. Pockmarked greens that often varied in pace. Only the bunkers knew how to convince. What was added this time was an extremely unfriendly starter who felt he had to show his authority. Also, the GPS system in the buggy is a nuisance. You are constantly annoyed with advertising and then the part partially blocks, although you drive directly on the Cartpath. The facility is not recommended.

Great classic with top greens
Reviewed February 18, 2023
Great course with lightning fast greens, interesting holes that require good course management. Not easy, but a pleasure. Care condition good. Great hospitality, restaurant and presence of the Marshalls on the course. What is annoying is the sharp setting of the GPS in the carts. Forces you to reverse at times in the middle of the square for no apparent reason.

Not to be compared with the top places!
Reviewed August 11, 2021
We played the course in August 21, as it is included in the all-inclusive of the Hotel Ikos. Before that we played Finca Cortesin, San Roque Old and La Reserva and since these places deserve 5 *, we can only give this place 3 * and consistently! The layout of the first 9 holes and 18. The rest is boring. The maintenance leaves a lot to be desired in terms of the entire infrastructure, except for the greens, which would be great if the players were to improve their Pichmarks. But the price fits the space.

Reviewed February 4, 2020
We played the course today in early February 2020.
It was in excellent condition. Of course, even at 18-20 ° no rain the weather played 8 hours of sun.
The service staff was super friendly we received oranges and water on the round.
The course is super varied 1. nine holes are built a little more into the terrain, the second nine holes are a bit shallower but are no less demanding, top fairways and top greens

Wonderful area, but unfortunately completely over watered
Reviewed January 4, 2020
Played the course in early January. Excellent design, ambience and friendliness of the staff. But why do I have to wade through mud to get to the tee and clean the ball after every hit because there is a lot of dirt on it? Of course, the otherwise good greens were too soft, which inevitably leads to excessive wear of the greens in the form of pitch marks and footprints due to the high game frequency. That diminishes the otherwise positive impression considerably. Therefore, even in view of the not very low green fees, only satisfactory.

We were back in mid-August this year.
Great condition of the fairways & greens. Striking the precious and very comfortable car seat. On the way you get fruit, a chilled towel and at the start are chilled water bottles in a box filled with ice.
This is expected in the green fee prices, but you will be disappointed in the remaining places around mostly of it - but not at Los Naranjos.
Extremely friendly staff everywhere.
A place that you should definitely play when you're in the area!

Dream complex without sea view
Reviewed May 14, 2018
I (HC 10.4) played this course for the first time at the end of April. When I had parked my car in the parking lot, and walked through the entrance to the area (after reading some reviews, completely without expectations), I was amazed. Simply WOW! In front of me the imposing 18, immediately visible that Green and FW are very well maintained, then the huge, well-kept palms, just as one imagines golf vacation. Also, everything was fine. Again, the place was in absolute top condition, great for playing. I think the front 9 is also more interesting, but the back 9 were also in this well-kept parkland wonderful to play. The highlight for me on this day was the track 18 (par 5), when my second shot landed on the green and I was allowed to record a birdie at the end. Even when visiting the club restaurant we noticed nothing negative. On the contrary the food was also excellent.
Conclusion. A perfect day on a top golf course with great cuisine.
The discovery of this year's golf holiday on the Costa del Sol.

Well maintained pensioner meadow, rather boring, especially on the second 9 holes. For a cozy round but definitely recommended. The staff in the pro shop and at the start is courteous and makes every effort to treat every guest in a friendly manner. One floor up on the terrace, however, another world: annoying the stupid arrogant behavior of individual members and employees. You really do not need a second time.

Very relaxed course. Beautiful and fair tracks in a well-kept environment. The starter has our group of 2, after a brief look at the T-Time list, tee off on T-10. So we could play quietly and without waiting until hole 15. All in all a recommendable course with very friendly staff and good restaurant. Very relaxed.

Best Place
Reviewed February 26, 2017
For us, the place is the best, because we know so far on the Costa del Sol (Golf). The layout is very nice, the fairways with greens and bunkers is very well designed. Overall, the property is spacious and generous. The condition is great, the greens are fast. The high personnel expenses for the care is omnipresent. From the damage of flooding in December was 16 watching anything from a few bunkers. The entire staff - from management office to the caddy master is extremely friendly and courteous. We enjoyed each round to this place. The restaurant is currently rebuilt, but a tent was erected as an alternative, in which meals are served.

Top & forgiving
Reviewed November 3, 2016
Place was recommended to us. Is highly recommended. Fairways in top condition (Nov 2016), Greens partly something little mended. Place is forgiving (as wide), but has yet enough Bunker (I mark since today all) and water (to supply enough balls). In any case, very well maintained. Sea view you should not expect, however. A buggy brauchts not because relatively flat and reasonable distances between greens and tee.

Care status disappointing

After I played here in the spring of this year with friends and was very pleased overall, I had suggested in another circle of friends to play here again the end of October. We were very disappointed with the current care status. Reductions were bad and the Greens partly in a sorry state. In this state, I recommend the place currently not leave your. We can only hope that one fills this gap would otherwise be too good for the otherwise beautiful place

My wife (HCP 23) and I (HCP 26) have played of this place in the second half of September 2013. The most expensive place we have played. Chaos from beginning to end. Even the tee time moves backwards, because there are no buggies. Are for this place but not essential. Wait 4 hole, wait, wait...
4 hours 30 minutes for a round of golf for two with buggy are definitely too long. Unfortunately, we were allowed to experience in this club that a flight was started well after us, probably a little catching up on the subject of "etiquette" has. The place is comfortable to play. The condition is okay. Food in the clubhouse was very good, although we be content with the dinner menu had to take, because we were traveling up a long time. I would hope that golfing guests can also choose from the daily menu.
Due to the circumstances I do not think that we will play this course again.

Great course
Reviewed June 18, 2013
Great course. Although there are more favorable to the Costa del Sol, but here the green fee (64 €) is really justified, because it is beautiful and gepfelgt. I had the misfortune of 4 to 5 flights to have an English tour group in front of me, so that we have used for the first 9 holes 3 hours. I went to the clubhouse and told that I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, partially because we were on or in a hole with 5 flights. In the clubhouse we had complete understanding. They were then offered me as compensation the first 9 holes to go again, because no one was started for hours afterwards and play as long until it's dark. I played 1-18 in under 3 hours and then spent six hours on the magnificent grounds. On the 18, the club management was eason me and asked me if it was OK for me. Exemplary! Cart not need, because the space contrary to other plants around Marbella is very flat. Highly Recommended and the most beautiful place I've played on the Costa del sol.
