Play golf under the December sun and combine your stay with the very best of Marbella and Estepona — culture, gastronomy, and seaside relaxation.
A Winter full of Sunshine
While much of Europe wraps up against the cold, the Costa del Sol shines at its best in winter. Mild temperatures, more than 300 days of sunshine a year, and vibrant green landscapes make this region the perfect destination for a different kind of holiday season.
At the heart of this winter paradise lies Atalaya Golf & Country Club, a true golfing landmark between Marbella and Estepona. With its two 18-hole courses — the Old Course, a timeless classic of elegant play, and the New Course, more technical and modern — the club offers a complete experience for those who wish to enjoy the game without giving up tranquility, scenery, and Andalusian hospitality.
Golf Among Mountains, Sea and views of the Mediterranean
December and January are ideal months to play golf at Atalaya. Clear skies, sunshine and beautiful greens create the perfect setting to improve your swing or simply enjoy the game at a more relaxed pace.
The club complements its courses with a top-level golf academy, a restaurant with a panoramic terrace, and an international community that turns every visit into a meeting among friends — all just minutes away from the main attractions of Marbella and Estepona.
The Christmas Spirit of Marbella and Estepona
Beyond golf, Christmas on the Costa del Sol offers a magical atmosphere.
In Marbella, the Old Town lights up with decorations and Christmas markets, while Plaza de los Naranjos becomes a lively meeting place to enjoy a glass of Málaga sweet wine or a gourmet dinner under the stars. Musical performances and the festive décor of Puerto Banús add that unmistakable touch of local glamour.
In Estepona, Christmas has a more traditional feel. The living nativity scene, open-air concerts, and the Christmas Market in Plaza del Ajedrez attract visitors of all ages. The city’s artistic murals and the unique Orchidarium complete an unmissable visit for those seeking culture and tranquility.
Experiences Beyond the Course
The possibilities are endless: hiking routes through the Sierra Bermeja, cycling along the coast, wine tastings in Ronda, or day trips to Málaga city, where the Christmas lights on Calle Larios are famous throughout Europe.
And for food lovers, the restaurants of Marbella and Estepona offer everything from traditional Andalusian cuisine to Michelin-starred dining experiences.
A Different Kind of Christmas — Bright and Mediterranean
Spending the holidays on the Costa del Sol is a unique way to celebrate Christmas. Here, sunny days replace the cold, the sea takes the place of snow, and the festive spirit is lived with joy and hospitality.
At Atalaya Golf & Country Club, every detail is designed for you to enjoy an unforgettable stay — golf, relaxation, fine dining, and the incomparable charm of the Mediterranean.
