La Reserva, Sotogrande

La Reserva, Sotogrande

La Reserva sector s the largest area of the Sotogrande resort. It is located on the 'high' (mountain) side of the coast road in Sotogrande Alta, to the north and east of the A-2100 road to Castellar. It is the last area to be developed, with a number of projects currently underway. The future sixth golf course is also located here. There are two gated security entrances, both on the right-hand side of the A-2100 road when travelling from the coast. One entrance is located shortly after the Mar y Sol shopping centre, while the other shares access with Sotogrande School.   

The initial development of this area began at the turn of the millennium and included the new location for the Sotogrande School, the La Reserva Golf Course and Club House, and the 'Los Cortijos de la Reserva' housing complex near the club house. Infrastructure and individual plots were sold in the higher, western part of La Reserva.

The 18-hole La Reserva Golf course opened in 2003. Between the two legs of the course and on the higher ground to the west, villas were constructed on the plots until 2008, when most work stopped. In 2016, infrastructure works began again in this area on the north side, with the aim of completing the perimeter link road and creating the centre ring for the 'Seven' and 'The 15' developments. Construction of the sixth Sotogrande golf course has yet to begin.

The La Reserva Club underwent a complete refurbishment in 2016, including the reopening of its restaurant as L'Olive, which specialises in traditional Andalusian cuisine with a contemporary European twist.  L'Olive renamed Restaurant Casa Club in 2023
