Sotogrande is excited to announce the development of a brand-new Almenara Golf Academy at Almenara Golf, located within the five-star SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort.
This ambitious project will transform the existing 9-hole Alcornoques Course into a state-of-the-art golf academy, setting a new standard for golf training facilities in the region.
The Almenara Golf Academy will boast a comprehensive range of world-class amenities designed to cater to golfers of all skill levels.
Among its features are a natural grass tee line, a covered tee line with a VIP area, and the latest Toptracer driving range technology. The academy will also include a custom fitting centre, a bar and café, and facilities for night-time practice.
In addition, the new academy will feature a par-3 course with nine holes designed by legendary golfer Manuel Piñero, as well as a professional coaching centre.
This centre will be equipped with a professional practice zone, including a dedicated tee line and a short game area for putting and chipping practice.
“We are thrilled to begin this exciting project, which will elevate Almenara Golf to the next level as a premier destination in Sotogrande for golfers of all skill levels,” said Stephane Menou, General Manager of SO/ Sotogrande and Almenara Golf.
“The new academy will offer not only world-class coaching and practice facilities but also a lifestyle concept that combines entertainment with golf, allowing the community of Sotogrande and our visitors to enjoy the game in a relaxed environment.”
Construction of the new Almenara Golf Academy is already underway. The academy will complement the existing 18-hole championship layout at Almenara Golf, further underscoring Sotogrande’s commitment to providing exceptional golf experiences and enhancing the overall offering for both guests and members.
“We are delighted to offer a new level of service and amenities to our guests through the Almenara Golf Academy,” said Rita Jordao, Director of Marketing for Sotogrande.
“This development is part of our ongoing mission to deliver the very best quality and innovation. By elevating the golf and leisure offering at Almenara Golf, we are further enhancing the overall offering in Sotogrande, which includes La Reserva Club, Real Club Valderrama, and Real Club Sotogrande – all ranked inside Spain’s top 10 courses – while also creating new opportunities for families and individuals to enjoy or take up the game.”
Golf Escape packages, which offer the opportunity to experience Almenara Golf along with other championship courses like La Reserva Club, are available to book through the Sotogrande website.
These packages are paired with a stay at Sotogrande’s only five-star resort, SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort.
As one of the most exclusive and private lifestyle and residential destinations in Europe, Sotogrande continues to expand its offerings for residents and visitors alike.
