01 · In a sentence

La Cala Spa in Málaga, open MayAugust.

La Cala Spa stands apart as the only luxury wellness-integrated wedding venue on the Costa del Sol, offering couples a destination that treats their guests to championship golf courses, multiple restaurants, and spa facilities across 150 acres.

Rather than a standalone ballroom, this estate resort provides ceremony backdrops overlooking the Mediterranean and Mijas mountains, with the flexibility to host receptions in multiple garden settings or indoor pavilions.

Guests arrive days early to enjoy the four-star amenities, transforming a single wedding day into a multi-day retreat.

Lovely spa, the 2hr circuit is good value for money and you can add a 3-course lunch on which is worth it.
