May 18, 2009

With its sensational spa, superb pools and a championship golf course, romantic Finca Cortesin is paradise for golfers and the best honeymoon hideaway in Andalusia.

The elegant and sleek Finca Cortesin Golf & Spa Resort stands amongst cobbled courtyards and fountains In the foothills of the Casares mountains. Ideally situated between Marbella and Sotogrande, minutes from the Costa del Sol's sandy beaches, Finca Cortesin's Moorish and traditional Andalusian architecture and modern minimalist chic blend with an effortless grace. Sumptuous textures and impeccable use of colour are found everywhere in this hotel's discreetly luxurious and comfortable environment. Surrounded by acres of landscaped gardens and sublime views of the Mediterranean Sea, this is arguably one of the best holiday destinations in Southern Spain.

Accommodation at Finca Cortesin

Sixty-seven individually designed luxury suites range from junior to presidential magnificence. All are spacious, the hallmark of Finca Cortesin with four-metre ceilings, each with either a terrace or garden. Even the junior suite will not disappoint with its white and taupe decor; bleached natural wood furniture and daring to be bold, a robust red armchair begging to be sat in.

For supine pursuits enjoy glorious siestas and romantic nights in the super king-size bed with its crisp linen sheets and feather light soft pillows: honeymoon heaven! The generous and elegant marble bathroom with stylish bathrobes and Penhaligon goodies has a shower room perfect for two.

Finca Cortesin Luxury Resort Golf Course

Golfers will love Finca Cortesin's challenging 18-hole championship course, one of the longest at 7000m and most beautiful courses not only in Spain but in the whole of Europe.The big news is that The Finca Cortesin Golf Club will play host to the prestigious Volvo World Match Play Championship in Oct 2009. Unlike most Costa del Sol golf courses there are no real estate developments here to put players off their putting!

Finca Cortesin Pool and Spa

Two fabulous outside pools, 35m and a 50m Olympic size pool; mosaic tiled, like lakes reflecting a deep Atlantic green. Plenty of room for serious lappers and casual floaters to enjoy the Zen-like peace of this blissful place. There is also a 25m indoor heated pool within the fully equipped state of the art spa and treatment rooms.

Chill in the below-zero snow cave after a sauna or steam bath or try an extraordinary hyaluronic facial session with all its unguents and pungents that acts like a benign botox ironing out wrinkles and giving the skin the silky sheen of a polished apple.

Restaurants at Finca Cortesin

El Jardin serves traditional fresh local dishes and morning breakfasts with fairy-sized dainty fruit salads, frothy yoghurt and granola. The Golf Club House has high-end snacks, healthy salads, pastas and a particularly delicious seafood saffron risotto. However, Schilo Restaurant is the superstar. Here guests are treated to an operatic performance where the open kitchen is the stage and at its centre Schilo Van Coeverdon conducts his staff to his own unique signature tune.

A fusion of Asian-Arabic cuisine; two tasting menus and an a la carte, serving inspired eclectic modern cooking with the finest wines. A main dish of slices of the tenderest beef with a delicate green curry sauce, golden mushrooms and Arabic rice with just enough onions and a flutter of mushroom powder to tickle the taste buds.Then something so special, an olive tree, the trunk made of dark chocolate with delicious delicate branches and a white olive oil mousse in its hollow with a dab of olive oil ice cream sprinkled with a whisper of pistachios. Difficult not to feel a pang of pain destroying this perfect food sculpture! For a change, a brisk 10 minute walk down to the beach for fresh fish and simple cooking at Euro friendly La Sal.

Finca Cortesin is a luxury vacation for discerning travellers with sophisticated tastes who seek a sensual and authentic retreat. A holistic haven without ambient music where nature sings its own song.
