Locate the course, not just the name
This guide concerns homes around Los Naranjos Golf Club in Nueva Andalucía. The club’s address is Plaza de Cibeles, s/n, Marbella. It is a different location from Plaza de los Naranjos in Marbella Old Town, and a development name does not establish a position beside the fairways.
Use the club entrance as a reference, then locate each home’s entrance and boundaries. A property advertised with a golf view may overlook the course without having direct frontage; another using the Los Naranjos name may sit farther away.
The 1977 course and its orange-grove history
The club’s official history dates the opening to 1977 and identifies Robert Trent Jones Sr as the architect. It describes the course’s development north of Las Brisas and the orange groves behind the Los Naranjos name. The current clubhouse opened in 1991.
Today the club describes an 18-hole, par-72 layout with broad fairways, large undulating greens, bunkers and water hazards. The par-five 18th finishes in front of the clubhouse. These features help explain the golfing setting, but the outlook from a particular home still depends on its hole, boundary and orientation.
Clubhouse life and a current practice-range caveat
The official facilities page lists the clubhouse, Hacienda Los Naranjos restaurant, pro shop and equipment services. Those are useful reference points if golf and meeting friends at the club will form part of your routine. Confirm restaurant reservations, visitor access and membership conditions separately.
On 10 October 2026, the same facilities page states that the practice range is closed for renovation. Do not plan a daily practice routine using its general facility description alone. Ask the club for the latest status and any alternatives; no reopening date is assumed here.
Padel on Avenida Valle Inclán
Los Naranjos Padel is another distinct sports destination. Its official website lists Avenida Valle Inclán 41, Nueva Andalucía, and 18 courts, including outdoor, semi-covered, competition and individual courts. It also describes an academy, gym and restaurant.
Locate the padel entrance separately from the golf clubhouse. This can matter for a household in which one person plays golf and another uses padel or fitness facilities. Check current bookings, lessons and access directly rather than treating them as facilities included with a home.
Golf frontage versus access to everyday services
For a course-facing property, assess the actual view from living rooms and bedrooms, not only the terrace photograph. Check screening, maintenance activity and any known stray-ball issues. A fairway is not a public shortcut to the clubhouse, so assess the road or pedestrian route from the entrance.
For day-to-day living, compare the routes to Avenida del Prado’s dining addresses and La Campana’s municipal services. La Campana’s Antonio Gala library is at Avenida Miguel de Cervantes 15, and its health centre is listed on Avenida Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. These are separate destinations within the wider Nueva Andalucía routine.
A useful viewing route around Los Naranjos
Begin at Plaza de Cibeles to understand the club setting, locate the Valle Inclán padel centre, then visit the shortlisted property and the services you would use. This is a suggested sequence, not a claim that all three stops form an easy walk.
Compare an apartment community’s shared upkeep with a villa’s private garden and pool obligations. Record orientation, boundary, garage access, privacy and everyday journeys for each home. Costa de Oro can use those concrete priorities to compare addresses around the course.
Common questions
Is the Los Naranjos practice range currently open?
The club’s facilities page stated that it was closed for renovation when checked on 10 October 2026. Confirm the latest position with the club before visiting.
Is Los Naranjos Golf the same place as Plaza de los Naranjos?
No. The golf club is in Nueva Andalucía at Plaza de Cibeles; Plaza de los Naranjos is in Marbella Old Town.
Does a golf-front home include access to the sports clubs?
Ownership alone does not establish golf or padel access. Check the club’s terms and any specific rights claimed in the transaction.
