Things To Do
Picasso Museum Málaga
Picasso was originally from Malaga. Great place to visit and learn about the life of this great Spanish painter. The Guadalpin hotel offers a day trip every Tuesday for 60 euros.
Alhambra - Generalife 2
One of the seven wonders of the world, the Alhambra is a gorgeous Moorish palace and gardens in Granada about an hour from Marbella. Any hotel can book a day trip excursion. The Guadalpin hotel offers a day trip every week day for around 90 euros.
Puente Romano
Walk across an actual Roman bridge built in the year 1!
Chiringuito Los Espigones
Emily’s favorite beachside restaurant! Great traditional paella and sangria.
Ronda
About an hour drive from Marbella is Ronda. Great day trip to see a traditional Spanish town that houses the oldest bull ring still standing. There is a day trip from the Guadalpin Hotel for 50 euros a person on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
Corte Ingles Puerto Banus
Spanish department store that will have anything and everything you may have forgotten to pack.
Magna Cafe
Gorgeous sunset views and fun place for cocktails. Dinner is a little too pricey.
El Banco Restaurante and Bar
A favorite of the Benavides family with reasonable prices.
Masala Aloha Marbella
The best Indian food in Marbella.
Playa "El Rodeito"
Great public beach
Kala Kalua Playa Chiringuito
Another great beachside restaurant for traditional Spanish food.
