Very Good See all 21 reviews

Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club is a stunning parkland course nestled in the beautiful Ronda Hills near Marbella. Located equidistant between Málaga and Gibraltar, this championship golf course holds the prestigious distinction of being the first golf course designed by legendary Spanish golfer Severiano Seve Ballesteros in 1991.

The course features relatively small greens that are not heavily bunkered, but have tricky slopes that are difficult to negotiate. Strategy is crucial to scoring well at Los Arqueros, which at just over 6,200 yards is not the longest test.

Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club

The tourist friendly, challenging and stunning course commands an enviable mountain setting and magnificent views over Andalusian hills and the Mediterranean. Located in Benahavís, only 5 km. from San Pedro de Alcántara and near beautiful Ronda, on the Ronda road.

Signature Hole: Hole 13, Par 5, 458 metres (501 yards), SI 6

Los Arqueros’ 13th deserves its status as signature hole not just for the challenge that it presents, but also for its magnificent scenery of ‘Mare Nostrum’. On clear days, it is even possible to see the coast of Africa and the Atlas Mountain Range. The golf is nothing short of spectacular either, and from an elevated tee the fairway starts off narrow, before it veers off to the right.

It is possible to attempt a ‘Seve’ in cutting the corner and going for the green in two. However, this is a dangerous approach and anything to the right of the green will result in a lost ball, while anything short will be swallowed up by the greenside bunker. A fade would suit this approach well, as the left side of the green is guarded by an uphill slope. A stunning golf hole, offering much in the way of risk-reward.

Extremely tight course which could remove the fun for most people. Me and my son fortunately hit solid shots on the tightest holes but this challenge and many blind shots make for a testing round.

This is an extremely difficult course to play, but the views were spectacular, the fairways were very well maintained, would certainly play again. On the web site is states evidence of a handicap is required. We had two golfers in front of us who clearly had no handicap as they struggled to even hit the ball, thus they slowed play and made it frustrating at times.

Tricky course. There are some great views but the slopes are difficult and we were very grateful for the buggy.

Arqueros Golf & Country Club is a very challenging course but totally worth it. The pro shop team were fantastic. I would recommend it to a golf society that enjoys a proper golf course and 19th hole

This was our second experience of golfing in Spain, fast greens. Very glad to have the buggy, distance between some greens and the next hole quite long! Again, beautiful views and vistas all around, lovely to see the Peregrine falcons overhead. Very good value in the bar.

This was the least popular of the courses we played. Accuracy was vital and off the fairway meant a lost ball. This was a course stuck into an area which really should not have been used for golf! Carved out of hilly scrubland. Clubhouse facilities were very good.

This course is nice, there is a lot better out there. They book far too many close tee times. The pace was painfully slow. At one point there was 4 groups on 1 hole. And a 15 minute wait to tee off on another. Plan for a 6 hour round to play here. The time spoilt the round for us

greens and tee's were not in great condition, and if you cant hit a long drive off the tee (over 200m) then you are in trouble,good coarse but not great.
