This accolade reflects their commitment to offering exceptional golf and lifestyle experiences on the Costa del Sol.

Located just 30 minutes from Malaga airport and the renowned destinations of Malaga and Marbella, La Cala Resort stands out for its luxurious amenities and unwavering dedication to sustainability.

This prestigious credential acknowledges their rigorous environmental and social responsibility efforts.

La Cala Resort’s commitment

La Cala Resort’s sustainability journey began in 1991 by installing a regenerated water irrigation system, demonstrating a forward-thinking approach to water conservation. This system, funded by the FBD Group, uses reclaimed water from a nearby recycling plant, ensuring preserving precious freshwater resources. Additionally, the resort is transitioning to Bermuda grass on its golf courses, leading to a 20% reduction in water consumption.

In 2022, the resort expanded its sustainability efforts by installing solar panels on maintenance facility roofs, generating 160Kw of clean energy per hour. This initiative reduces the resort’s reliance on grid electricity and supports future energy-efficient upgrades, such as LED lighting.

La Cala Resort has also embraced electric-powered machinery, including green mowers and bunker rakes, to decrease carbon emissions further. With ongoing projects to enhance their sustainability practices, including using lithium-powered carts and reducing turf areas, La Cala Resort is setting a benchmark for eco-friendly golf resorts.
