Immediately behind Casares del Sol is the Finca Cortesin Golf Resort - with some of the Casares del Sol apartments alongside the 16th green.
Finca Cortesin s one of the longest courses in Europe - great if you are a big hitter! Opened October 2006 - it is a new American style golf course with many mature trees throughout the landscaping it has the air of a mature course. Designed by Cabell Robinson one of Europes top Golf Course designers - it has 18 holes, 6800m and more than 100 bunkers - one of the finest golf courses in Spain with magnificent views of mountains and sea of Andalucia.
Although its a long course - there are 5 different tee positions to suit all standards. And if you want some lessons, it is the home of the Jack Nicklaus Academy.
One of the more expensive games of golf - inline with other top rate courses for Costa del Sol golfing at 80 - 100 euros, but a millionaire style round.
Finca Cortesin are going to be on the golfing map- as home to Volvo Match Play 2009.
