Our favourite things about Marbella

Puerto Banús

Known for its luxury and ritzy settings, Puerto Banús is one of the highlights of Marbella. High-end shops, as well as top-quality restaurants and bars, line this marina in the city, and it is definitely worth a visit if you want to see the ‘other’ side of Marbella. Treat yourself to some new designer clothes or enjoy a Michelin-starred meal along the marina – you’re on holiday, after all!

Beaches

No trip to Marbella would be complete without a day at the beach. White sands that seem to stretch on forever, combined with the inviting, warm, blue waters of the Mediterranean, make the beach a must-visit when you’re in Marbella. The beaches are typically lined with bars and restaurants, so you can enjoy a few drinks or a meal beachside in the evening as the sun goes down.

The Old Town

A classic Spanish Old Town, the Old Town in Marbella is full of quirky and quaint little shops, boutiques, cafes, bars, bistros, restaurants and more. Enjoy some traditional Spanish tapas while you bask in the glorious sunshine, or listen to some live music in one of the Old Town’s many bars as you enjoy a few well-earned beverages.
