    Founded by Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe in 1954, this now-legendary resort occupies a prime patch of Marbella’s Golden Mile, tucked away from the buzz amid peaceful pine groves. A love-letter to slow living, Marbella Club has gracefully evolved from its rustic, motel-style origins to encompass 115 rooms and suites and an impressive collection of 17 villas. Measuring in at 5,000 sq m, the Kids Club is one of the best in Europe, making the hotel a paradise for families. The hotel’s 8 restaurants and bars make it the perfect nucleus for socialising and enjoying the simple pleasures in life. Marbella Club is also a dazzling destination for wellness, thanks to its sea-spying thalassotherapy spa and heavenly Holistic Studio, set in lush botanic gardens, offering modern, deeply healing, integrative health practices.
