As one of the most visited destinations in Spain, more than 30 million tourists flock to Andalusia every year, in search of the sun, sand and surf the region has become famous for. 

Found in the south of the Iberian Peninsula the autonomous community is home to perennial holiday favourites the Costa del Sol and the Sierra Nevada which have been pulling in the punters for decades.  On top of these mass-marketed holiday hotspots Andalusia can also boast a more exclusive destination: La Reserva de Sotogrande.

Located in a private residential development, La Reserva de Sotogrande has garnered a reputation for hyper-luxe living with its mix of sunshine, primo golf and tennis and unmatched service. Now in a bid to up the luxury quotient the resort has recently launched a new attraction, The Beach.

Described as a “beach in the hills overlooking the Mediterranean”, The Beach is a 3252 sqm fresh water man-made lagoon, trimmed with its own sand beach. It features landscaped gardens, a boathouse with private jetty and summer café not to mention the La Reserva golf course and a residence for families.

Discussing the property’s latest addition Marc Topiol, Sotogrande CEO, said: “The opening of The Beach fulfils our vision to provide a high end and unique set of services and amenities for our resident to enjoy. The Beach at La Reserva de Sotogrande is an integral part of what makes La Reserva a true oasis for families.

“The first of its kind, white sand-bottom and fringed swimming lagoon provides a focal point for our residents and our guests to relax, unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings with their families and friends.

“We are delighted to have had the opportunity to truly innovate, allowing us to offer a one of a kind resort living experience within Southern Europe, and to add to the diversity of activities already on offer here at La Reserva. The aim is to create an environment where our residents can leave their car keys behind and truly experience a lifestyle removed from their everyday life.”

“At La Reserva, we take the headache out of residential ownership”

Topio closed his statements with: “At La Reserva, we take the headache out of residential ownership and create an environment where your house is your own hotel and where everything from housekeeping and refrigerator stocking are taken care of. With nature walks, horse riding, tennis, and now The Beach right on the doorstep, residents have everything they need or desire within easy reach.”
