In the unlikely event of guests seeking a break from the golf course, the typical whitewashed Andalucian village of Mijas is only 12km away, while historic Malaga and the stylish jet-set resorts of Marbella and Puerto Banus are closeby. Home to Spain’s oldest bullring, the mountain town of Ronda with its spectacular ravine is well worth a visit. For family fun, there are two aqua parks within a short drive of the hotel. Should you wish to find out more about the local culture, then a wine tasting excursion to Jerez should prove a great day out, while the more adventurous might like to attend a mock bullfight. There are several white villages in the region such as Casares and Mijas, which are worth visiting.
