A full-service golf resort set among orange and lemon groves with views of Montgó mountain. Features an 18-hole golf course, outdoor pools, spa, and access to Dénia's famous beaches nearby.
Dénia Marriott La Sella Golf Resort & Spa is a four-star full-service resort within the La Sella urbanisation outside Dénia, in the Alicante province of Spain's Valencian Community. The resort is set among orange and lemon groves at the foot of the dramatic Montgó mountain, approximately 6 kilometres from Dénia's historic centre and its celebrated stretch of Blue Flag beaches along the Marina Alta coastline. The natural setting — framed by citrus groves, rocky mountain slopes, and open sky — is entirely different in character from the busier coastal resort areas of the Costa Blanca, offering a tranquil rural-luxury atmosphere.
The resort's centrepiece is its 18-hole La Sella Golf Course, rated among the finest in the Valencian Community, with fairways winding through orange grove landscape and mountain panoramas on every hole. The clubhouse provides a full pro shop, a PGA professional golf academy, and club rental. Beyond golf, the resort offers three outdoor swimming pools, a children's pool, tennis courts, and a well-appointed spa with treatment rooms, sauna, and a thermal circuit. The 180 rooms and suites feature balconies overlooking either the golf course or the Montgó mountainside; suite categories include spacious living areas suited to extended stays or larger groups.
The main restaurant serves buffet and à la carte menus emphasising local Marina Alta produce and the Valencian seafood tradition, with paella and fresh fish dishes prominent on the menu. The resort's concierge team arranges day excursions to Dénia's medieval castle, the Cabo de San Antonio Marine Reserve for snorkelling and diving, and the weekly market at Jávea. Transfers to Alicante Airport (approximately 80 kilometres) and Valencia Airport (approximately 100 kilometres) are available on request. A ferry service from Dénia to Ibiza and Formentera is around 15 minutes from the resort, making island day trips a practical option for guests.

Tips for visiting
- Golf packages combining accommodation and unlimited green fees are significantly better value than booking separately.

- Dénia's fish market (lonja) operates Tuesday to Saturday mornings and is worth visiting for fresh-caught local species.
- The Dénia ferry terminal for services to Ibiza and Formentera is around 15 minutes from the resort — a practical base for island day trips.
