Marbella holiday Guide

All about Marbella - A main holiday destination in Andalucia

---

Nowhere is sophistication more apparent than in Marbella. Since the Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe chose the finca on the outskirts of a small fishing village called Marbella as his holiday estate in 1947 – in the 1950’s, this became the Marbella Club. Since then, rich and famous beautiful people from around the world have flocked to Marbella.

Marbella and Puerto Banús today still both retain their star quality and reputation as one of the most important tourist destinations in Spain.

A holiday destination featuring luxurious secluded villas, well-tended public gardens and parks; wide, clean boulevards and the quaint, historic, Marbella old town littered at every turn with charming squares and unspoiled courtyards.
