There are many ways to enjoy a Marbella sunset. From a beach club. From a rooftop bar. From a yacht. But there is one experience that most visitors never consider, and it might be the most memorable of all: playing golf as the sun goes down over the Andalusian hills.
The Sunset Golf Experience is our most popular offering at TM Golf Marbella, and once you understand what it involves, it is easy to see why.
What makes it different
This is not a standard golf lesson that happens to take place in the evening. It is a designed experience. The session begins in the late afternoon at Villa Padierna Golf Club, timed so that the second half of your time on the course coincides with golden hour.
As the temperature drops and the light changes, the course transforms. The lakes reflect the sky. The mountains shift colour. The usual sounds of the day quiet down, and what remains is the sound of your club, your coach’s voice, and the evening birds. It is golf as a mindful escape, not a workout.
You do not need any experience
Most people who book the Sunset Golf Experience have never played golf before. That is the point. This is designed as a first encounter with the game — in a setting that makes it unforgettable.
Your coach guides you through the basics: how to hold the club, how to swing, how to read the green. But the emphasis is on enjoyment, not technique. You are not here to become a golfer in 90 minutes. You are here to have one of the best evenings of your holiday.
Who books this experience
Couples looking for something different during their stay in Marbella. It is a popular anniversary or birthday gift — something more personal and memorable than a restaurant reservation.
Families enjoy it too, especially with teenagers who might not be enthusiastic about a ‘golf lesson’ but are completely won over by the setting and the relaxed format.
We also see solo travellers and small groups of friends who want an activity that feels exclusive without being pretentious.
When and where
The Sunset Golf Experience is available year-round, with session times adjusted to the season. In winter, the start time moves earlier to catch the best light.
Sessions take place at Villa Padierna Golf Club in Benahavís — one of the most beautiful golf settings on the Costa del Sol, with views over the hills toward the sea.
