Benahavís and San Pedro
Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club: the course and homes for sale nearby
The first course on the Costa del Sol designed by Severiano Ballesteros, opened in 1991 in Benahavís: 18 holes, par 71, laid out among steep hills with views over the Mediterranean.

The course
Seve Ballesteros routed the course along the natural lie of the land in the foothills of the Serranía de Ronda. The fairways are narrow and often framed by slopes and ravines, out of bounds is close on many holes, and there is more water than the hillside suggests – a lake on the 3rd, a stream in front of the 8th green and a par-3 16th ringed by water and bunkers. The greens are often small and set on two or three levels.
The club names the 12th, a par 4, and the 13th, a par 5, as its signature holes. Both are played from raised tees, and on a clear day the African coast shows from the 13th. Most of the front nine is fairly level; the back nine is hillier and feels more remote.
Playing it
Los Arqueros rewards straight hitting more than length. Reviewers often call it tight and technical, and higher handicappers tend to find it hard going. A buggy is the usual advice, particularly for the hillier back nine.
Players commonly praise the views, the variety of the holes and friendly staff. The greens divide opinion – quick and true for some, soft or uneven for others – and slow rounds on busy days are a recurring complaint, along with a sense that the fee is high for the condition found.
There are putting and chipping greens and practice bunkers. The old driving range has made way for a padel club and a new range was being built in summer 2026, so check before counting on a warm-up. The clubhouse restaurant, La View, has a terrace. Spring and autumn are the busiest months; in summer, book an early start.
Living nearby
The course is in the municipality of Benahavís, a few kilometres up the road from San Pedro de Alcántara to Ronda, with Puerto Banús and the Golf Valley a short way below it towards the coast.
The Los Arqueros urbanisation grew up around the golf: detached villas, many among pines, share the hillsides with low-rise complexes of apartments and townhouses, some of them gated. Our listings near the course, in Los Arqueros and the wider Benahavís area, are mostly apartments, with a large share of detached villas and fewer townhouses.
We act only for the buyer, and before any viewing we check how far a home really is from the course and what it looks out on.
