El Lago Club Wellness & Sports in Marbella
The El Lago Club has been designed to become an integral part of the landscape in Marbella, perfectly in tune with its natural surroundings, its architecture fused seamlessly with its environment and enjoying uninterrupted views of the lake. The roof garden extends throughout the entire building, with paths and rest areas that allow one to simply relax and enjoy the views of the lake. Its vegetation is made up of indigenous species and adapted plants with low water consumption, in line with the environmentally responsible and sustainable vision of La Quinta Grupo Inmobiliario for the entire Real de La Quinta resort. The roof garden is part of a wider route around the entire lake to be enjoyed by walkers, joggers and cyclists...
Kayak, paddle surf or water bikes are just some of the non-motorized water sports that the club offers on the lake which covers 35,000m2 and measures over 400m at its longest point. A single reception manages the entire range of sports activities available, such as the golf course and the tennis and paddle courts.

Restaurant
By
Saltao de Mar is a premium-casual Peruvian Mediterranean restaurant that offers a contemporary reading of Peruvian cuisine through its encounter with the Mediterranean Sea.
A project born from Azotea's ambition to go beyond its current spaces and build a lifestyle brand with longevity. Flexible, recognizable, and designed to grow, where enjoyment, the shared table, and the social experience are part of the DNA from the very beginning.
The Mediterranean offers a familiar and desirable imagery: quality produce, recognizable flavors, and a way of being. A setting from which to develop a more laid-back proposal, aligned with the surroundings and the audience.

Designed to offer a truly elevated experience, the club brings together world-class facilities, curated wellness program and an exceptional natural setting — all created to enhance your quality of life and enjoyment.
Works progress
The works of El Lago Club with its leisure facilities, the golf course and the lake itself are well advanced and progressing favourably. Day by day the future lake takes more shape, in these new images you can appreciate the large scale of the project, which becomes more evident as the works progress. El Lago Club is scheduled to be operational in 2026.
José Manuel García
José Manuel García, CEO of Azotea Grupo, shares why El Lago Club is the ideal setting for bringing his gastronomic vision to life in Marbella.
"We are a company that seeks unique, atypical spaces, where not everything is ordinary, and we believe El Lago Club meets all the characteristics of what we are looking for."
Alex Escudero and Laura Gómez
Alex Escudero and Laura Gómez, who manage Le Max El Lago Club, tell us about how this unique concept was born, a perfect fusion of sport, relaxation, and lifestyle.
"Our main goal is to ensure total well-being meets high athletic performance."
Marisol Serrano
Marisol Serrano, commercial director at Real de La Quinta, shares with us how a long-held vision became a sustainable, nature-integrated luxury resort.
"Our luxury is not just about design or materials, we sell nature, location, and a way of living that over 40 nationalities have chosen to call home."
Óscar Gutiérrez
Óscar Gutiérrez, technical director, shares how a two-million-square-metre plot is being transformed into a unique space.
"The property’s topography is quite complicated so any development project must be carefully analysed. The earthworks and locations are beneficial as they offer spectacular views towards the sea. However, they pose significant technical challenges."
Ignacio Pujol-Xicoy
Ignacio Pujol, designer of lake purification systems, shares with us the details of one of the project's most distinctive features: the central lake.
"What truly sets it apart is its ecological approach. By replicating natural biological processes — such as wetlands and aquatic plant filtration — the water remains clean, healthy, and crystal clear without the need for chemical treatments."
Manuel Piñero
Manuel Piñero, designer of El Lago Club’s golf course, shares the details behind the Executive Golf Course design.
"The course is perfectly adapted to the terrain, and we’ve also taken great care to ensure that all the trees, shrubs, and other plants are native"
Paula Saco
Paula Saco, architect of El Lago Club, describes her design vision for El Lago Club and its current progress.
“The idea is that the building would be completely embraced by the landscape, covered by the landscape”
