Style and setting

Finca Cortesin is a five star resort set in the hills at Casares on the Costa del Sol, between Marbella and Sotogrande, with around 67 suites across landscaped grounds. It gathers manicured gardens, terraces, a celebrated golf course, a spa and a beach club, in an elegant Andalusian style that is generous and polished rather than rustic.

Capacity

The resort hosts weddings of up to around 400 guests across its gardens, terraces and indoor function spaces, from a garden ceremony to a large seated dinner and party. The scale suits a big celebration, while the grounds can also frame a more intimate gathering.

Staying on site

With around 67 suites, the resort can sleep a large part of the wedding party on site, so the celebration can run across several days with a welcome dinner, golf, the beach club and a recovery brunch around the wedding day.

What it costs

Cortesin quotes weddings on request, with catering priced per person and the figure shaped by the date, the guest count and the rooms taken. As an indicative January 2026 guide, a full destination wedding on the Costa del Sol commonly runs from the mid five figures well into six figures in euros once accommodation, catering, decor and production are added. Treat figures as indicative and confirm directly with the resort.

Logistics, told straight
Getting there
Malaga airport is around an hour by road and Gibraltar around 40 minutes, both with connections across Europe. Most guests fly into Malaga and drive down the coast.
A multi day stay
With around 67 suites on site, plan the celebration as a multi day stay of room nights and a programme, making the most of the golf, spa and beach club.
Heat and season
High summer on the coast is hot, so late spring and early autumn are kinder for an outdoor ceremony, with warm sea and softer evening light.
The legal bit
A legal civil marriage in Spain involves residency and paperwork that many overseas couples find impractical, so most marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony at the resort. A local planner will guide the options.
