Old School Hollywood Luxury on Golden Mile in Marbella
The former family home of Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe, the storied Marbella Club Hotel is Andalusian luxury at its most classic. Located on Marbella’s Golden Mile with ocean and mountain views, the property contains 115 spacious bedrooms and 14 Andalusian-style villas surrounded by lush subtropical gardens. Villas range from two to six bedrooms, with private pools and full kitchens. Whitewashed exteriors, orchid-filled terraces and Mediterranean blue tiles remind you that you are exactly where you need to be.
The Beach Club, for many years a favorite of Sean Connery and still the best food in town, sits between a seawater pool and Marbella’s golden sandy beach. Guests have access to 14 tennis courts at a nearby club, an equestrian center with advanced level training, and a Davis Thomas-designed 18-hole golf course at the hills of Benahavis. The award-winning kids club is open to 11 pm at night. Thalasso Spa, with its Turkish steam baths, saunas and 12 treatment rooms, makes use of ancient Greek and Egyptian traditions. Practice yoga on-site, and spend the evening at the Art Deco-ornamented champagne room and piano bar.
