Is it Easy for Women to Play Golf in Marbella?

Marbella has long been a top destination for golf enthusiasts, offering some of the finest courses in Europe. (In fact we wrote a whole guide dedicated to the best golf courses in Marbella!)

In recent years, the sport has become increasingly popular with women and Marbella has also capitalised on this trend.

In 2023 Solheim Cup, a prestigious golf cup for women was hosted at Finca Cortesín, just a short drive from Marbella, and interest in women’s golf has soared.

But how easy is it for women to play golf in Marbella? We take a closer look.

Following the success of the Solheim Cup, many local clubs, including those in Marbella, have made even more efforts to cater to female players. This has resulted in more women’s events, tailored coaching, and facilities that make it easier for women to enjoy the sport, whether they are beginners or experienced golfers.

Clubs that Cater to Women Golfers

Several of Marbella’s golf courses are known for actively catering to women golfers, making it one of the most welcoming destinations for female players. Los Naranjos Golf Club, for instance, has long been recognized for its inclusive approach, offering dedicated ladies’ days and a strong female membership. It even has a ladies summer league and the club regularly hosts women’s tournaments, social golf events, and clinics designed to help female golfers of all skill levels improve their game in a supportive, relaxed environment.

Other clubs such as Aloha Golf Club and La Quinta Golf & Country Club also have a strong focus on inclusivity, offering women’s leagues, social events, and coaching programs tailored to female golfers.

Golf Lessons and Coaching for Women in Marbella

Marbella is home to some of the best golf instructors in Europe, and many clubs offer coaching programs specifically for women. If you’re staying here with Swish Marbella we can organise private lessons of course.

A Thriving Social Scene

The social aspect of golf in Marbella is another key reason why it’s so popular for women. Many local golf clubs have thriving women’s sections, where female golfers can join ladies’ leagues, participate in mixed competitions, or simply enjoy a casual round with friends.

Flexible Memberships and Tee Times

Many Marbella golf clubs offer flexible memberships that cater to women who may not be able to commit to full-time play but still want to enjoy regular rounds of golf. Some clubs even offer ladies-only memberships making it easier for women to access the course, participate in women’s events, and benefit from exclusive perks.

In addition to flexible memberships, tee times are often available during hours that are convenient for women balancing work, family, or other commitments. Many clubs reserve specific times for women’s groups, allowing female golfers to enjoy a more relaxed pace of play without the pressure of competing with larger groups.

Why Not Try Golf in Marbella?

So now there can be no excuses, next time you visit Marbella be sure to incorporate a golf morning or afternoon into your trip- all are welcome!

And don’t forget we offer a range of beautiful villas right next to the golf courses, some of which enjoy front line views.

See you in Marbella!
