SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort Hotel

Fantastic hotel and wonderful holiday! Accommodation- Excellent rooms. Two adults and two children in connecting rooms. Lovely bathrooms. Service - very friendly staff, very quick service and super helpful. Facilities - great kids pool. Adults only pool area extensive with two pools and loads of loungers. Spa pool and hot/cold plunge pools were great fun with the kids (allowed between 10-13.00). Golf courses were good enough. 9 hole Lagos was lovely and the 9 hole Pinos was less interesting but fine. New practice range and short 9 hole course were being developed at the time of visit. Food - the all-inclusive option was great. The SoCiety restaurant for breakfast and lunch was great and had enough variety to see us through the week. Evening options for kids was trickier as neither Marxa or Cortijo had many “kid friendly” options, but there were enough to see us dine there 3 out of 7 nights. La Reserva Beach/Tennis club - worth doing the La Reserva beach for a day (one day included in the all-inclusive package) and the tennis club is great. Would definitely recommend having a car for off site evening eating options and going in to Sotogrande. Overall - great hotel and will certainly think about going back.

Another fabulous experience at SO, a reduced all inclusive menu didn’t sit well compared to our June visit but once again we could not fault the quality, staff and service. A massive shout out to Alina and team at the IXO for being so welcoming and attentive, you remembered us from June and your bar/mixology skills and your team are fantastic! Also, Arby at the pool bar, the best Mojito I have ever had!! Missed it on our last pool day, but we will be back. Golf was amazing, sunrise on Lagos was a memory that will stay with us for a long while, beautiful greens and fantastic golf chatter throughout the hotel. Another fantastic stay, just hoping the all inclusive does not get scaled back further!

Spa at So Sotogrande is lovely. Couldn’t rate it highly enough. Clean , quiet, the views outside over the golf course were outstanding. I’m here on a family holiday so nice for the children to be allowed in for a few hours in the morning, allowing more quiet time for couples/adults only in the afternoon. This was a special treat for them. I treated myself to a deep tissue massage and it didn’t disappoint. Probably the best spa treatment I’ve ever experienced. My therapist Vero was amazing. The staff overall are welcoming and helpful

Superb hotel, friendly and professional staff. We enjoyed it SO much we’ll back there in July, unfortunately at other room-rates. We suggest to book the ‘Studio-rooms’, they are awesome and magnificent. Congratulations to the whole team & management! Warm regards, Dirk & Greet De Maesschalck

I have experienced a couple of issues during my stay in the hotel: while attempting to rest I was woken by hedge cutters and lawnmowers early in the morning. All day I had a group of gardeners loitering around my terrace, chatting and smoking when not using their noisy equipment. On another night I arrived back in my hotel room only to find that none of the lights could be switched off. Reception staff was unable to help and I had to try and sleep with all lights switched on. I am aware that things can sometimes go wrong, but I was very disappointed when the hotel sent me a questionnaire to comment on my recent stay. I mentioned the issues I experienced, but never received a response or apology. I am planning to return to Marbella next year but may choose a different hotel ...

Excellent hotel for a golfing trip in the heart of Sotogrande. The hotel offers great facilities, including well appointed and modern rooms with very comfortable beds, an extensive spa offering a range of treatments, snd a number of dining options.
