Golf: La Reserva

La Reserva gets overshadowed with several powerful and historic courses nearby, but it’s a worthy addition to any itinerary with its own championship pedigree. The course, a former host to both the European Tour and Ladies European Tour, cuts through two connecting valleys and plays back up to the magnificent clubhouse with views down to the Mediterranean along the way.

*shared cart included

Across town is the vibrant Puerto Banus, known for its nightlife, designer shopping and luxury yachts. Whether you fancy beach time under the ever-present sun or shopping and tapas in Old Town, you can’t go wrong.

*transportation not included today for the non-golfers

Day 3

Day 3

(Golfers) Drive 35 minutes northwest to Benahavís.

Golf: La Zagaleta – New Course

One of Spain’s most exclusive clubs, La Zagaleta, now offers guests the chance to play their dramatic New Course. The miraculous layout rises and falls between mountain ledges, with breathtaking views from nearly every daunting tee shot. You will struggle to shoot your handicap but the five-star service, coupled with the serene but awe-inspiring backdrop, will ensure you will love every minute of it.

*shared cart included

La Zagaleta

(Non-Golfers) Drive 1 hour and 20 minutes southwest to Gibraltar.

(Non-Golfers) Sightseeing Tour: Gibraltar

Head south along the Costa del Sol and the towering Rock of Gibraltar dominants the skyline. Visitors can cross the border into the tiny British territory to hang out with the Barbary Macaque monkeys that call the 400-meter limestone promontory home, hike the Mediterranean Steps and wander the extensive labyrinth of caves, or simply stroll the shops and cafes lining the Grand Square and Main Street.

Day 4

Day 4

(Group) Drive 1 hour and 15 minutes north to Ronda.

Sightseeing: Ronda + Wine Tour

ronda-spain
andalusia-wine-tour

Start the day with a visit to Ronda, one of the most dramatic towns you will ever see atop a rocky mountain plateau. Beyond the spectacular views from atop the “New Bridge”, visitors can scale the city steps, visit famous Plaza del Toros bullfighting ring, or explore the Arab Baths. Subsequently, the group will head to a family owned ecological winery for an in-depth vineyard and cellar tour which ends with a wine tasting on the terrace overlooking the property. Finally, the group will end with a visit to an old style Cortijo winery for a tour and tasting in the barrel room, followed by a slow gourmet lunch experience with the vineyard owners on the terrace of the winery overlooking the spectacular views of the vineyard and Grazalema Mountain range.

*today’s pricing includes entry into the wineries and tasting of 8 – 10 wines plus a 4-course Gourmet wine pairing lunch with the winemakers

(Golfers, Optional) Drive 50 minutes southwest to Sotogrande.

(Optional) Golf: Real Sotogrande*

The original Robert Trent Jones design in the area (RTJ also did nearby Valderrama) which opened in 1964, Sotogrande is the oldest of Costa del Sol’s great courses but it is still challenging to this day. It has a wonderful variety of holes and requires great strategy, as well-placed bunkers and water hazards cause players to think through most every shot.

*see additional cost in pricing section below

Sotogrande

Day 5

Day 5

(Golfers, Optional) Drive 50 minutes southwest to Sotogrande.

(Optional) Golf: Valderrama*

The “Augusta of Europe” has been regarded as Europe’s best course for many decades and hosted the 1997 Ryder Cup, so you’ve probably heard of it! Valderrama is as much an experience as it is a course, as the club works hard to ensure every last blade of grass is immaculately presented and the service is consistently excellent. It’s 5-star in every way.

*see additional cost in pricing section below

Valderrama

(Non-Golfers) Today is a day of leisure.

Day 6

Day 6

(Golfers) Drive 45 minutes southwest to La Alcaidesa.

Golf: La Hacienda – The Links

La Hacienda Alcaidesa Links Golf Resort is in one of the most enviable locations along the Coast del Sol, with views that stretch to Gibraltar and Africa. The property’s premier course, The Links, descends across rolling clifftop terrain in an amphitheater-like setting with the Mediterranean on full display throughout. The course originally opened in 1990 but an extensive refurbishment has just been completed, creating a luxury golf experience that rivals the best in the region.

*shared cart included

La Hacienda – Links

(Non-Golfers) Drive 2 hours and 15 minutes northeast to Granada.

Sightseeing Tour: Granada

A trip to Granada surely begins with a visit to the mighty Alhambra, the red castle-fortress that rises atop Sabika Hill and dates to the 13th-century. Guests can tour the gardens, courtyards and palaces – some of the best-preserved Islamic architecture in the world – before venturing around to the cobblestone streets that wind through the Albaicín district of the ancient Moorish city for dramatic, fairytale-like views of the castle beneath the backdrop of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

*today’s pricing includes a full day with a van and driver and a 2.5-3 hour private guided tour of Granada for the non-golfers

alhambra

Day 7

Day 7

(Golfers) Drive 50 minutes west to Finca Cortesin.

Golf: Finca Cortesin

A resort course with a championship quality, the European Tour and 2023 Solheim Cup host course is quite stunning. Designer Cabell Robinson created a harmonious relationship between the natural Mediterranean landscape and the beautifully maintained course. Its tough to pick out a signature hole among 18 strong holes, but we are partial to the 15th which requires near perfect execution to escape unscathed.

*shared cart included

Finca Cortesin

(Non-Golfers) Today is a (flex) day of sightseeing.

(Non-Golfers) Suggested Sightseeing: El Caminito del Rey

The Caminito del Rey route is a spectacular footpath that runs above, along and through a series of towering gorges and canyons in the El Chorro village near Málaga. Once the world’s most hazardous footpath, it has been carefully restored so visitors can safely traverse the 5-mile “hanging” walkway and soak in the unforgettable views.

*full day with van and driver included today for the non-golfers

The prices shown above are valid for 14 days. In order to confirm the trip and lock in your trip price, the next step is to pay the initial deposits as outlined above via the Book Now link below.

Payment of your initial deposit signifies your intent to travel with Cloud 9 Golf and Travel. Upon receipt of your payment, Cloud 9 will lock in your trip price with currency contracts and will pay non-refundable deposits to suppliers (golf courses, hotels, etc.) on your group’s behalf. Therefore, please note that payments made to Cloud 9 are non-refundable and we strongly encourage all clients to purchase travel insurance (shop travel insurance quotes here). Please see our T&Cs below for additional information regarding payment terms and policies.

Terms and Conditions

Cloud 9 will provide you with a Trip Proposal outlining the services that you have requested for your vacation package and applicable pricing. To accept the Trip Proposal, payment of the Initial Deposit must be made by or on behalf of all participants in your group. Once all deposits have been received, Cloud 9 will proceed with confirming the necessary bookings for your vacation. Payment of the Initial Deposit signifies your intent to appoint Cloud 9 to act as your agent to obtain the services you have requested. Payment of the Initial Deposit also signifies that you understand Cloud 9’s Booking Terms and Conditions, as outlined herein, and have accepted them on behalf of yourself and all members of your party. If you are booking as part of a group, you must designate a “Lead Participant” who is responsible for sharing these Terms and Conditions with each group member. Cloud 9 is not responsible for any group members misunderstanding of these terms and conditions.

Pricing:The per person trip price indicated in the agreed upon Trip Proposal is stated in US dollars and based on the number of participants as stated. If the number of participants changes, trip prices may change. Cloud 9 is not obligated to give a breakdown of the costs associated with a trip. Prices are valid for 14 days from the date the Trip Proposal is sent and, if all Initial Deposits have not been received within 14 days, Cloud 9 reserves the right to adjust the price.

Payments: Trip payments are payable directly to Cloud 9 and are payable by paper check, E-check/ACH, MasterCard, VISA or American Express. Unless otherwise stated above, payments are due to Cloud 9 in two installments and must be paid in accordance with the following schedule:

Initial Deposit – An Initial Deposit, as outlined in the agreed upon Trip Proposal, is due upon acceptance of the Trip Proposal. The Initial Deposit is non-refundable unless Cloud 9 is unable to provide tee times at any of the courses on your itinerary. (this excludes any other courses that have been identified as being subject to availability).

Final Balance Payment – Unless otherwise stated, the final payment will be due approximately 60 days prior to departure and we will send an invoice to your group to confirm the exact due date.

Cancellations/Changes: Once Initial Deposit(s) are paid and trip bookings are in place, a Confirmed Itinerary will be sent to you to show all confirmed bookings for your trip. In certain instances, changes to your itinerary may be necessary at the time of booking and these will be communicated to the Lead Participant prior to confirmation. Once bookings are confirmed (will be shown in your Confirmed Itinerary) date changes or other changes to the agreed upon itinerary (as outlined in the Trip Proposal) are subject to availability and may result in additional charges, including the loss of non-refundable deposits, if applicable. Pricing changes will be confirmed with the Lead Participant in writing.

All payments to Cloud 9 are non-refundable (except as stated above in Payments regarding the Initial Deposit), so we strongly suggest that all of our clients purchase trip cancellation insurance and you can shop travel insurance quotes HERE. Specifically, we strongly encourage clients to purchase coverage for things like injury and illness (e.g. Covid-19), which allows travelers to recover trip costs should they have to cancel or suspend their trip. Costs associated with trip cancellation/interruption, medical expenses, and mandatory quarantine can all be covered to reduce risk. Group members who you choose to forgo travel insurance and then have to cancel their trip will assume full financial responsibility. Also, refunds cannot be issued for unused portions of the trip package, including for missed reservations due to disrupted air travel. Name changes are usually possible, and, with only a few exceptions, deposits are transferable should you need to find a replacement traveler.

In the case of a partial cancellation prior to final payment (only a portion of the group cancels), the trip price(s) for group member(s) who still plan to travel may increase to cover the unpaid prorated costs associated with the canceled trips.

Documentation: It is the duty of each group member to have a valid and current passport, if necessary, along with any other documents that may be necessary to travel (visas may be required for some destinations). Cloud 9 is not responsible for travel delays or cancellations that result from an invalid or missing travel documentation.

Course Handicap Requirements: Courses included on your itinerary may have handicap limits. It is the responsibility of each golfer to have a valid handicap card/certificate to present where required. Cloud 9 is not responsible for fees or cancellations that result from missing credentials.

Required Mobility: Some aspects of your trip may require a certain level of fitness and/or mobility to participate and it is up to each group member to assess their capabilities. Cloud 9 is not responsible for cancellations that result from a failure to meet these requirements.

Hotel Bookings: Unless otherwise stated, our price assumes double occupancy, shared rooms and is based on standard rooms. Upgrades are available at many hotels for an additional charge but requests for upgrades should be submitted to Cloud 9 upon paying your Initial Deposit.

Transportation: For chauffeured groups relying on the services of a driver, our price assumes that all group members will arrive and depart together from the same airport on the same day at approximately the same time. If additional transfers are required or an expense is incurred to cover a driver’s waiting time, the additional cost will be passed along to your group.

Unless otherwise stated, self-drive prices, if included in our Trip Proposal, include basic collision damage and theft insurance policies. These policies limit your potential out-of-pockets costs for damage or theft, but do still have a deductible due in such instances. However, the deductible can be reduced to zero for a daily fee, payable upon picking up the vehicle. Also, our self-drive prices cover one designated driver (between 25 and 74 years of age) but a second driver can be added at initial pick-up for little or no fee (depending on branch location).

Responsibility: Cloud 9 acts only in the capacity of intermediary and agent for the suppliers and contractors which are selling services not directly supplied by Cloud 9, such as transportation, accommodation, golf, and other services. Cloud 9 is not responsible for any loss, injury, or damage caused by any Force Majeure, health issues, acts of God, acts of government or other entity, wars, or threat of war, industrial dispute, disaster, terrorism, riot or civil disorder, curtailment of transportation facilities, inclement weather or any other circumstance beyond Cloud 9’s control. Furthermore, Cloud 9 is not liable for injury, illness, accident, loss, damage or theft of luggage or personal belongings resulting from neglect or default of any golf, hotel or transportation supplier or from neglect or default of any other person supplying services or materials. Cloud 9 reserves the right to make any changes or cancellations to prices or package features to ensure the comfort and wellbeing of trip participants. Cloud 9 shall not be liable for any act, event, or omission of passengers sharing your transportation, nor for the damages, including theft of luggage or personal belongings, personal injury, accident or illness, that occur during your trip.
