A luxurious hacienda-style property surrounded by expansive gardens and one of Spain鈥檚 best golf courses, Finca Cortesin offers the highest levels of comfort and service. Looking down to the Mediterranean from its vantage point in the foothills of the Sierra Bermeja聽to the west of Marbella, the hotel has been artfully designed with great attention to detail.
Inside, you鈥檒l find sumptuous furniture, Andalusian-style courtyards and reclaimed stone flooring from a former Portuguese monastery. The 67 rooms are spacious and bright, with high-quality fabrics lining the beds and framing the large windows. The majority also have their own balcony or patio area.
The hotel鈥檚 main restaurant, El Jard铆n de Lutz, serves an 脿 la carte breakfast (with tables in the gardens in warmer weather). Its dinner menu leans on traditional Spanish classics with a modern twist. Kabuki Raw is the hotel鈥檚 Michelin-starred, open-kitchen Japanese restaurant.
Aside from its two outdoor pools, the hotel has an expansive spa with a heated indoor saltwater pool, thermal baths, treatment rooms and a gym. For a round of golf, the Finca Cortesin clubhouse is opposite reception. Five minutes from the hotel by private shuttle is the beach club and another outdoor pool, a beachfront restaurant and Balinese-style loungers in summer.
