Atalaya Golf & Country Club sits in one of the Costa del Sol's most scenic pockets, tucked between Estepona and Marbella with the Mediterranean glittering below and the Sierra Bermeja rising behind. It's a classic two-course setup that's been welcoming golfers for decades, and the setting alone, lush fairways framed by sea views and mountain backdrop, makes it worth the trip.
Off the course, you're well placed for a long weekend. Marbella is a short drive east for lively evenings and quality restaurants, while Estepona offers a quieter, more traditional option just down the road. If you want two contrasting rounds without hopping between resorts, Atalaya is an easy win.
Who is this for?
Golfers planning a Costa del Sol break who want two contrasting rounds in one location, with Marbella and Estepona close by.
Who is it best for?
Mixed-ability groups and societies, plus confident mid-handicappers who enjoy strategic, tree-lined golf and like having a more forgiving second course to balance the trip.

Designed in 1968 by Bernhard von Limburger, a German golf designer and historian, the Old Course is a tough par-72 layout. The fairways are relatively forgiving, and the greens are large and undulating, but trouble awaits those who stray far off line.
The 6,714-yard Old Course is a classic resort layout with Bermuda grass underfoot, where mastering the elevated putting surfaces is the key to success.

New Course
Atalaya's New Course was opened in 1991 following architectural work by Paul Krings, and affords fantastic views over the Mediterranean and Gibraltar. At 5,821 yards, the New is considerably shorter than its more established neighbour, but still represents a considerable test for golfers of all abilities. Both courses have a good variety of tee boxes to ensure an appropriate challenge for all visitors.
Atalaya is also home to the headquarters of the Professional Golfers Association of Europe, and the Atalaya International Golf Academy and has been chosen to host the annual Team Championships.

Fun course, very easy given short distance but a nice course to end on. Could be one of the longest rounds of my life. From hole 11 onwards we waited on the tee box for around 10 minutes, often with the group behind us.

Great course, no complaints at all. Issues were non-course related. The 2 glaring issues were that they had no booking on record for our group so we had to hustle for them to let us off at all, and that no shuttle was arranged for the course. It is about a 5 minute drive from the hotel but a 40 minute walk up hill, we had to uber both days to get there

My feeling with all golf courses organised by YG, is that they should be rated by difficulty and aesthetics - and then to have a choice of courses rather than allocated one
