Located only 5 minutes from Puerto Banus and with its pleasant staff the course is a pleasure to play and considered one of the friendliest courses on the coast.

Los Naranjos has a strong membership who enjoy privileged tee times throughout the year so it is always advisable to book tee times well in advance to avoid disappointment if your thinking of playing here with green fees at Costa del Sol.

A stunning course with a good mixture of holes and challenges that will always keep you fascinated. With its wide fairways this is a great one for golfers of all levels. However, this by no means makes it an easy course as one needs to be aware of the strategically placed fairway bunkers and water hazards designed to catch out the unwary! Not to mention the water holes to test you just when you think you are scoring well! In many ways playing this course is like playing a set of 9 holes from two different courses. The front 9 are wide and open, whereas the back nine are very tight, and as the name suggests, played through several orange groves at Naranjos Golf Course.

The intimidating par 5 18th hole finishes in American style towards an elevated green protected by a water hazard at the front of it and the impressive clubhouse behind adds to the atmosphere with the entire clubhouse watching from the large terrace!
