The Beach at La Reserva Club

The Beach at La Reserva Club sits inland in Sotogrande Alta, built around a 17,000 m² man-made lagoon fed by a natural valley. The sand came from Punta Paloma in Tarifa. It's unlike any other beach club in the Cádiz province.

The main beach area covers 2,800 m² with a sandy-bottomed lagoon. Single sunbeds run €25 per day, doubles €60. Full waiter service covers the terraces and sand, so you don't need to move once you're settled.

A separate lagoon handles watersports: kayaking, SUP boarding, and electric surfboarding. There's also a spa zone and a 25-metre heated pool that stays open in the cooler months.

Families do well here. The kids club takes children aged four and over with qualified staff, giving parents actual downtime. Dining comes from Ancala, the on-site restaurant focused on Andalusian cooking. DJ sessions run Wednesday and Friday evenings in summer under the "Apres Beach" programme, mid-June through early September.

Prices sit at €€€. Book ahead in July and August, especially on weekends. Sunbed availability goes fast. The club operates seasonally, with the pool and Ancala open on weekends through winter.
