Tucked into the exclusive Puerto Banús area on Marbella's Costa del Sol, the BlueBay Banús Hotel brings traditional Andalusian village charm to one of Spain's most glamorous golf destinations. Built in classic whitewashed low-rise style around tropical gardens and sun-drenched courtyards, this 4-star base puts you moments from the marina's superyachts, designer boutiques and buzzing nightlife, while keeping you within easy reach of the Costa del Sol's championship golf courses.
The layout itself is a pleasant departure from the high-rise blocks that dominate much of the coastline. Instead, accommodation spreads through landscaped gardens and quiet patios, each room opening onto a private terrace or balcony with views over the pool area and greenery. It's the kind of setting that lets you unwind properly between rounds, whether you're planning morning tee times at nearby Aloha or Los Naranjos, or building a longer itinerary around the courses that define golf in southern Spain.
The hotel's wellness centre offers a solid range of health and beauty treatments if you need to ease any post-round stiffness, and the central pool area becomes the natural gathering point in the afternoon. Come evening, Puerto Banús marina is a short walk away, known as much for its people-watching and late-night energy as for its well-rated dining and exclusive beach clubs. You're also well placed for day trips into Marbella's old town or along the coast towards Estepona and Sotogrande.
Who is this for?
Golfers or groups looking for a comfortable, well-located base in Puerto Banús that combines quality 4-star accommodation with easy access to Costa del Sol golf and the marina's restaurants, bars and nightlife.
Who is it best for?
Couples and small groups who want a quieter, garden-style resort within walking distance of Puerto Banús, and visiting golfers who value a relaxed setting, spacious rooms and proximity to Marbella's best-known courses without paying for full resort golf facilities on-site.
