La Cala Resort

Nestled between the arresting beauty of the Sierra de Mijas Natural Park and the shimmering Mediterranean Sea, La Cala is a genuine haven of tranquility. Three superb golf courses, a truly luxurious spa and acres of untamed natural surroundings are waiting for you…

Located just 10minutes from the sweeping Mediterranean beaches of the Costa del Sol and only 30 minutes from Malaga Airport.

Designed by the renowned Cabell Robinson, each 18-hole course has been created to ensure a testing, yet truly exhilarating experience.

The three 18-hole championship courses all offer a different challenge,

America Course: Campo America is enhanced by spectacular views to the Sierra de Ojén and Mediterranean Sea.

It’s wide, linked fairways and relatively few bunkers make this a slightly easier driving course, though the hilly topography requires a lot of carry across steep brush-covered side slopes. while the small raised greens demands more precise club selection to hit the mark.

There are water hazards on the 9th and 16th.

Asia Course: The spectacular Campo Asia has plenty of challenging holes, guaranteeing a testing round of golf which puts a premium on the approach shot.

The oldest of our three courses and the one most respected by the professionals, it is narrow and short, with four par 5 holes demanding skill and strategy.

Look out for the 10th with its classic design, and the 5th where the aim of your drive is especially critical. The 18th requires full concentration. Remember not to over-club off the tee or this lengthy par 5 could spoil your scorecard.

Europa Course: A dramatic course but easier for the average golfer, with generous fairways, flatter terrain and slightly larger greens than Campo America and Asia. Notable for one main bridge and four smaller bridges across the River Ojén, which features in eight holes, cutting across three fairways. There are four tunnels for golf carts.Water hazards guard the 3rd and 14th greens. The 14th is at the maximum limit of what is allowed for a par 3 at 233 metres. The par 5 11th is the longest hole at 524 metres.

The resort features La Cala Golf Academy, where multilingual professionals offer both individual and group lessons for beginners as well as experienced golfers looking to further improve their game.

Located next to the 9-hole par-3 course and overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the academy provides all the facilities needed to learn golf or enhance your skills: a natural grass driving range, putting and chipping areas, and bunkers.
