Home to the world’s most expensive yacht dock, visitors can enjoy watching boats as big as their houses park on the Puerto Banus beach. The city features luxurious beach clubs and the legendary restaurant Villa Tiberio where celebrities Melanie Griffith, Sting, and Antonio Banderas enjoy kicking back. Since the 1970s, Marbella has been a playground for the rich and famous. It proudly features some of the best golf courses in Europe, world-class nightlife, and Michelin star restaurants. Although luxurious, the city is warm, charming, and welcoming, making it the most visited city in Spain.

‘Marbs,’ the city’s playful nickname, is home to the infamous Marbella Club Hotel, where Princess Diana, Audrey Hepburn, and Cary Grant were recurring guests back in the day. It is a beachfront hotel with marble bathrooms, private outdoor pools, and rainfall showerheads. The hotel, which offers an off-site golf course, costs around one thousand dollars per night.
