About the golf course
Golf Río Real is in a superb location, just 3 km from Marbella city centre. It is built on terrain which slopes gently down to the sea, so many of the holes provide magnificent views of the Mediterranean.
One of the finest golf courses in Marbella complemented with a top class boutique hotel with only 30 rooms.

Condition of course is exceptional. Well laid out. Nice mix of simple and challenging holes. Can be relatively expensive but would definitely play it again. Nice balcony in the clubhouse for a drink afterwards.
