Villa Atenea is located in the highly exclusive and private San Roque Golf Club on the eastern Costa del Sol. The destination enjoys a warm and temperate climate and the relaxed lifestyle of Cadiz province.
Life here is low-key but high-quality, with luxury beach clubs and a yachting marina, refreshingly few commercial developments and unspoiled virgin beaches backed by sand dunes where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic.
Villa Atenea enjoys a frontline location with direct access to San Roque Golf Club with easy access to world-class Valderrama Golf, Sotogrande Marina and Santa Maria Polo Club, where the summer months let you rub shoulders with the British Royalty and the world’s horse-loving elite.
An easy 30 minute drive will take you to Gibraltar with great shopping, a fascinating history and an opportunity to see the ape community that lives on the rock.
For the non-golfers in your group, the luxury So/ Sotogrande spa is a few minutes away from your villa and the world famous Santa Maria Polo Club and Sotogrande’s picturesque Marina are also within 15 minutes by taxi.
La Reserva Club is in Sotogrande Alta near the La Reserva Golf Club House and just 15 minutes from Villa Atenea. This man-made lagoon beach complex is simply fabulous. There's waiter service, restaurant (with à la carte or buffet menus), valet service, 2.800m2 beach, huge water sport lagoon, beach lagoon and swimming pool.
The nightlife of Marbella and Estepona, and beach-life at Tarifa and Costa de la Luz are both an hour away, while Tangier in northern Morocco is a 45-minute ferry away – book one of our guides to show you the best of it with a door-to-door service.
Dining out can take place in the restaurants of the marina, So/ Sotogrande or in the village centres of Pueblo Nuevo and Guadiaro. Or you might head to one of the chiringuitos along the beaches on either side of Sotogrande for a taste of fresh fish and a cool glass of Tinto de Verano.
For a more Spanish vibe head inland a short distance to explore the delightful white village of Jimena de la Frontera or the castle fortress town of Castellar de la Frontera which punctuate the walking route along Mr Henderson’s Railway to Ronda.
