A Championship Course Worthy of Pros
The Old Course at Atalaya is a true test of golf intelligence. Its generous fairways require thoughtful positioning, while its subtle doglegs and well-protected greens demand precision and strategic decision-making — exactly the kind of layout professionals value when preparing for competition.
The immaculate conditioning of the course throughout the year makes it ideal for high-performance practice. Fast, consistent greens and perfectly maintained fairways allow players like Christian Cavaer to fine-tune distance control, iron accuracy, and short-game precision under championship-level conditions.
Located between Marbella and Estepona, in the heart of the Costa del Sol, Atalaya benefits from over 300 days of sunshine annually — making it a preferred winter training destination for European professionals and elite amateurs.
For touring professionals and competitive golfers, consistency is everything — and Atalaya delivers exactly that.
A Destination for Champions — and Future Champions
Christian Cavaer’s visit highlights an important truth: Atalaya Golf & Country Club is not only a welcoming environment for members and visiting golfers, but also a serious championship venue where high-level players feel confident training.
When professionals choose a course as part of their preparation, it speaks volumes about the quality of its design, maintenance, and overall experience.
Atalaya Golf & Country Club continues to position itself as a reference point for championship golf on the Costa del Sol — a place where pros practice, families play, and the next generation of champions is inspired.
