Casa Cabopino Retreat is a private three-bedroom holiday home in Artola, near Cabopino, in Marbella East. Santa María Golf is approximately a six-minute drive and Cabopino Golf approximately eight minutes, which makes the house a practical base for a golf holiday in Marbella without staying inside a resort.
For a group of up to six, that short distance changes the shape of the day. You can leave for an early tee time without crossing Marbella, make breakfast in your own kitchen, and still have the afternoon left for the beach, the marina or the roof terrace.
The house is not a hotel and not a golf resort. It is one address for the whole group, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, several outdoor spaces and a private heated rooftop jacuzzi — the sort of golf accommodation in Marbella East that works as well for the people who are not playing.
Two easy choices for your first rounds
Cabopino Golf and Santa María Golf are the two closest courses. Between them they cover very different ground, which makes them a sensible pair to open a multi-round stay. Planning more rounds? See all the golf courses near Cabopino compared.
Cabopino Golf Marbella
An 18-hole course in Artola Alta, laid out over the hillside directly inland from Cabopino, with sea views from the higher holes and noticeable changes in elevation. The club lists a driving range, putting green, pro shop, buggy hire, changing rooms and its own restaurant.
Course details taken from the club’s own published information. Confirm current conditions, dress code and tee times with the club before you play.
Santa María Golf
An 18-hole course in Elviria that follows a natural valley through pines, cork oaks and olive trees. The club describes a more demanding outward nine and a more forgiving back nine, with a characterful clubhouse at its centre.
Course details taken from the club’s own published information. Confirm current conditions, dress code and tee times with the club before you play.

Approximate driving times in normal traffic, measured by route from the Cabopino area; the exact address is shared with confirmed guests. The overview is schematic and not to scale. Traffic, roadworks and the route you choose can change these times noticeably, and courses in the last band are a full day out rather than a morning round.

What the house does for a golf group
Three-bedroom golf accommodation in Marbella works only if the practical parts work: beds, bathrooms, breakfast, parking and somewhere to sit down afterwards.
Sleep the group properly
The master bedroom can be made up as one bed of 180 × 200 cm or as two single beds of 90 × 200 cm. The other two bedrooms each have a double bed of 160 × 200 cm.
Leave early without fuss
Two bathrooms make an early start realistic for six people. The kitchen is fully equipped, so breakfast happens on your schedule rather than a dining room’s.
Park beside the house
There is one private parking space next to the house. Groups arriving in more than one car can park free of charge in the street nearby. The garage is not available to guests.
Reset after the round
A washing machine for golf kit, heating and air conditioning in all three bedrooms and the living room, and a private heated rooftop jacuzzi with sea views for the end of the day.
Spread out
A ground-floor terrace, a first-floor balcony, the roof terrace and a shared pool in the complex mean nobody has to sit in the same room all afternoon.
Bring people who do not play
Cabopino Beach, Puerto Cabopino, the Artola Dunes and Marbella are all close, so a golf trip with non-golfers does not have to mean waiting around.
A shared base with room to breathe
The living area, dining table and terrace run into one another, so the group can eat together and still spread out afterwards. The bedrooms and the separate outdoor spaces give everyone somewhere to be on their own when they want it.
Play the round. Stay for lunch. Take the rest slowly.
The advantage of staying this close to the courses is not only less time in the car. It is having enough day left for the coast, the company and the roof terrace.
Early tee time
Coffee in your own kitchen, then a short drive to Cabopino Golf or Santa María Golf before the day warms up.
Stay nearby
Eat at the club, or drop down to Puerto Cabopino and the beach restaurants on the coast.
Beach or a quiet hour
Walk the boardwalks through the Artola Dunes, swim, or take the shared pool and a book at the house.
Rooftop recovery
Finish in the private heated jacuzzi on the roof terrace, with the sea in front of you and the day behind you.
When not everyone wants to play
Most golf groups are mixed. These are all within easy reach while the rest of the party is on the course.
Cabopino Beach and marina
A sandy beach and a small marina with restaurants and beach clubs, approximately six minutes by car or around half an hour on foot.
Dunas de Artola
A protected dune landscape with wooden boardwalks running along the coast, roughly six minutes away.
Marbella and Puerto Banús
Marbella Old Town is approximately twenty minutes by car, and Puerto Banús about the same, depending on traffic.
Simply stay in
The shared pool, the terraces, the roof terrace and a slow breakfast are a perfectly good day in themselves.
Explore Cabopino and Marbella for restaurants, beaches and day trips near the house.
A base that works in autumn, winter and spring
Golf is played all year on the Costa del Sol, and many groups prefer the months outside high summer, when a morning round sits comfortably alongside lunch, a walk on the coast and an afternoon at the house.
All three bedrooms and the living room have heating as well as air conditioning, and the private rooftop jacuzzi is heated throughout the year. The shared pool in the complex is open all year too.
Conditions vary. Always check current tee-time availability, maintenance work, dress codes and course conditions directly with each golf club before you travel.
A flexible alternative to a golf hotel
Groups weighing up a golf villa or a resort package in Marbella are usually after the same thing: an easy base within reach of several courses, with enough room not to live on top of each other. Casa Cabopino Retreat offers that as a private house — your own kitchen, a shared living room, terraces on every level and one front door for the whole party.
To be precise about what it is: Casa Cabopino Retreat is a private three-bedroom holiday home. It is not a hotel, not a resort and not a detached villa, and there is no reception, no restaurant and no room service. What there is instead is privacy, space and a short drive to the first tee.
