OKU Andalusia

Sotogrande | Costa Del Sol

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

From summer 2025, the western Costa Del Sol gains a serious new style icon. OKU Andalusia is a beachfront sanctuary near Sotogrande where infinity pools spill towards the Med, villas and suites channel barefoot luxury, and Andalusian flavours meet Japanese precision. Think coastal-chic design, natural textures, a destination spa and a genuinely strong line-up for both couples and families.

Low-slung architecture, whitewashed facades and layered wooden terraces set the tone at OKU Andalusia. By day, drift between infinity pools, beach club and leafy courtyards; by night, it’s all about show-cooking, coastal cocktails and sultry sunsets over Sotogrande’s untamed shoreline. Rooms and suites bring neutral, meditative palettes, while the spa and meditation courtyard anchor the wellness vibe.

For couples seeking Costa Del Sol’s charm with a quieter, more exclusive twist, OKU Andalusia delivers the perfect balance. It’s around 1 hour 30 minutes from Malaga (AGP) airport along Spain’s sun-drenched southern coast. See more Costa Del Sol holidays.

Location | OKU Andalusia

Location

At the western tip of the Costa Del Sol, OKU Andalusia takes a prime beachfront position close to Sotogrande – the coast’s most understatedly swanky enclave. Expect a backdrop of natural dunes and marshes, golf fairways and distant mountains rather than high-rises.

Sotogrande itself is a chic, sporty resort: designer villas, leafy avenues and a glossy marina lined with yachts. It’s an easy hop from the hotel for evenings in buzzy bars and stylish restaurants, yet you’ll return to a calm, self-contained retreat right on the sand.

Sotogrande resort centre: approx. 10.8km
Local marina & restaurants (Sotogrande): approx. 10–15 minutes’ drive

Approx. transfer time from airport: 1 hour 30 minutes from Malaga (AGP) – shorter from Gibraltar (if used on tailor-made trips).
