Golf in the morning. A quieter pace afterwards.
WHY IT BELONGS HERE
For a stay shaped around the hills.
The Westin La Quinta is a golf-and-wellness base above the coast, with a different rhythm from the beachfront hotels. Its setting beside La Quinta's 27-hole golf offering makes it a natural candidate for a playing break, but the terraces, pool and spa also give non-golfers a reason to stay. The important choice is whether you want to return to a quieter resort after your outings, rather than step directly into a busy town.
We would organise the essential tee times first, then leave the afternoons flexible. A couple with different interests can make the arrangement work well if one person's golf does not dictate every hour of the other's day. For a property visit, the location is also useful for exploring the hills and residential areas around Benahavís before comparing them with the coast.
A good match if…
Golfers, couples and visitors who prefer a hillside resort base and do not need the beach outside the door.
Think about your priorities.
Plan transport for Puerto Banús, Marbella and beach outings. A hillside setting offers a different kind of convenience from a central seafront address.

YOUR ROOM, YOUR WAY OF STAYING
Choose the space that suits you.
What we would consider
A panoramic category can be a sensible upgrade if you expect breakfast or a drink on the terrace. If sharing with children or friends, ask about connecting rooms and bed sizes rather than assuming all twin arrangements are the same. A Junior Suite is described as open-plan, so it may not provide the bedroom separation you want for different sleeping schedules.
| Category | Published size | What sets it apart |
|---|---|---|
| Classic | King or twin options | A balcony or terrace with pool, garden or golf outlooks. |
| Deluxe | Larger sitting area | Compare the extra space with the Classic category for your length of stay. |
| Classic or Deluxe Panoramic | View-led categories | A choice when the outlook is more important than a category label. |
| Junior Suite | Open-plan layout | Sitting and dining space, with golf views in the published description. |
| Executive or Presidential Suite | Larger suite layouts | Consider for longer visits or a more substantial private terrace. |
Published areas may include outdoor space. Confirm the exact layout, occupancy and inclusions for the room offered.
Everyday comforts
Westin's Heavenly Bed is a signature feature, and the room descriptions include private outdoor space. Our priority would be a comfortable terrace, enough storage for golf equipment and the right bed arrangement, rather than upgrading purely for the suite name.
BEYOND THE ROOM
Time well spent.
Heavenly Spa
The spa offers a thermal circuit and treatments. After a round, a pre-booked treatment can be more useful than leaving wellness as an optional extra that never fits the day.
Pool afternoons
A resort afternoon works well between golf and dinner. Ask about seasonal opening and heating if swimming is central to your plans outside the warmest months.
Fitness and flexibility
The hotel lists fitness facilities alongside its wellness offering. Keep one day without a golf commitment if you also want to explore the coast; that gives the visit room to become a holiday as well as a sporting trip.
AT THE TABLE
Make a meal of the occasion.
Sunsa
The hotel's main dining option combines regional and international influences. It is a convenient choice after a full day, especially when you want dinner without another journey.
The Clubhouse and Aljama
The Clubhouse suits a meal or drink around golf, while Aljama provides an indoor bar setting. Pool-bar availability is seasonal, so check the current operating programme rather than relying on the full summer line-up.
OTHER PEOPLE’S EXPERIENCES

A successful golf break
TAStamnes enjoyed the breakfast, course condition and helpful team during an April 2026 golf visit.
Tripadvisor · published May 2026
Worth knowing
TAStamnes also found the rooms somewhat dated, though clean. Other guests questioned value and additional facility charges. We would compare the room condition and full golf-and-spa package rather than the nightly rate alone.

LOOK BEYOND THE HOTEL
Get a feel for living here.
Use the stay to compare hillside views, golf proximity and the journey down to the coast. For a future home, those everyday distances can matter as much as the terrace view. We can introduce a focused selection in Benahavís and discuss how each location would fit your usual routine.
