Opened in 1991, Los Arqueros is a challenging par-71, 18-hole course designed by the Spaniard Severiano Ballesteros. Considered one of the best players in the world, Seve has used his know-how and prestige to create some 30 golf courses all over the world.

The sleek green fairways of Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club are cradled in the rugged Sierras of Ronda. This spectacular mountain setting where the eagle and vulture soar, provide players too with a birdie: eye view across the Mediterranean and beyond to Africa on a clear day. All this beauty is concentrated in Marbella's famous Golf Valley and just 10 minutes from Puerto Banus, haunt of millionaires, celebrities and the yacht set.

Los Arqueros Golf, a challenging 18 hole par 71 inaugurated in 1991, has been designed by a man who is not only one of the world's top professional golfers but also a native of the country, Spain's Severiano Ballesteros who has shared his knowledge and put his name into the creation of me 30 golf courses throughout the world.

The design thinking behind Los Arqueros Golf was to lay out a course which closely followed the contours of the land and was in harmony with the natural setting. It is an idea which Seve exploited to the maximum when designing the front and back nine holes, each with its own distinct personality. The result is a course which presents a challenge for the experienced golfer and is a real test of skill for beginners.

The course demands accurate play, especially on some of the tighter fairways where even big hitters may be advised to play a shorter iron or wood off the tee for greater precision.

The great third hole with a lake on the left of the fairway and wide bunkers dotting the right, needs careful strategy to avoid an unhappy end.

But the sixth hole is the most difficult and the longest. Crucial decisions must be taken right from the tee shot. Watch out for the eighth hole in particular which is a a long par five with a hazardous deep out off bounds, a dogleg to the right an abrupt descent to the green, and finally a creek to cross to reach the pin.

The 13th is a beautiful hole, with an elevated tee which requires a powerful but precise drive to the drop zone flanked by bunkers and which requires some thought If par ls to be saved.

Thls is a challenging course which needs to be approached with caution if you want to play to your handicap.

Los Arqueros Golf (proprietor Taylor Woodrow de Espana S.A) is unique and its design is very different from the majority of courses on the Costa Dec Sol.

However Los Arqueros's directors do not believe in standing stall and in order to retain its excellent reputation, improvements to the course are always ongoing under the guidance if technical expel at the Seve Ballesteros organisation. These efforts were rewarded when the club was granted the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certificate at the end of 2003 This official recognition has made Los Arqueros Golf the first golf course on the Costa dei Sol, the second In Andalusia and the fourth in all of Spaln to obtain the ISO 14001 Thls achievement lS hardly surprising given Tayior Woodrow's overall policy of incorporating a general environmental management system in order to respect nature and comply with all standing regulations. The idea of an Environmental Management System (SGMA) first emerged in The Netherlands in 1985, and is currently firmly observed all over the world. However its application is still voluntary to prevent and to remedy real and potential environmental problems. After the challenge of the course, the "nineteenth hole" at Los Arqueros is a welcome sight. The panoramic terrace is built into the hillside overlooking the first tee and the 18th green and it is revitalising merely to have a drink in the breathtaking views to the horizon which describe a perfect blue parabola where the sky meets the Mediterranean.

As well as a bar and restaurant there is a pro shop, gymnasium and sauna, squash. tennis and paddle tennis courts' putting and chipping greens as well as a driving range. The clubhouse is a meeting place for visiting golfers and country club residents of all nationalities who come not only to play golf but also to savour that special outdoor lifestyle which is all about enjoying the sunshine and the country air over a chilled beer and a dish of paella perhaps in congenial company. Likewise visitors who wish to experience the pleasure of living in the incomparable setting of Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club will find a large selection of possibilities to choose from among plots, villas, apartments and semi-detached townhouses.
