Where Andalusian Heritage Meets Contemporary Style
Gran Marbella’s design sings to the soul of Andalusia. Horseshoe-shaped arches, hand-cut zellige tiles, and the warm strokes of local stone mingle with sleek, modern lines. Each of the 135 rooms, whether a spacious suite or a superior accommodation, is a serene sanctuary. HAY, the beloved Danish design house, supplies clean-lined furniture that whispers minimalist elegance, while soft palettes of terracotta, ochre, and sage echo the landscape outside. The result is a peaceful retreat that feels at once grounded and airy, inviting every guest to pause and breathe in the beauty of the Mediterranean.
Guest Rooms
At Gran Marbella, every guest room is designed for relaxed, refreshing stays. Rooms are generous in size and decorated in soft, neutral tones. Each space includes luxury bedding that invites long, restful nights, smart tech for easy device charging, and large windows that frame stunning views of the beach, the lush gardens, or the sparkling city skyline
Sustainability
Caring for nature is woven into every corner of the resort. Gran Marbella uses eco-friendly building materials, runs energy-saving heating and cooling systems, and follows waste-reduction guidelines that keep everything tidy. Each design choice and daily routine is made to let guests savor all the comforts of luxury while the resort protects the planet.
Dining and Social Spaces at Amu Beach Club
At the heart of Gran Marbella lies Amu Beach Club, the brand’s newest spot after its flagship in Monaco. Here, the timeless elegance of the Riviera meets the lively, easy-going style of the Mediterranean and a hint of the old Marbella glamour. Loungers are set just steps from the shore, the cocktail menu is creative and colorful, and every sunset is a mini celebration that visitors and locals remember long after they leave.
Amu Beach Club
Nestled right on the sand, Amu Beach Club features an infinity pool that seems to drop into the ocean, live bands and DJ sets that keep the vibe electric, and Mediterranean dishes made from the freshest seasonal ingredients. Guests can lounge at the beachside tables and savor grilled seafood, colorful vegetable mezes, and hand-shaken cocktails, all while listening to the waves and live music blend into one.
Restaurant Vesterbro
When the occasion calls for something fancier, Restaurant Vesterbro is the go-to. Its seasonal menu is built around organic produce and the finest ingredients from nearby farms. Dining indoors or on the terrace, guests enjoy sweeping views of Marbella’s coastline, perfectly framing each course. The green-kitchen philosophy ensures every dish is packed with flavor while treading lightly on the planet, and the menu switches regularly to showcase the best of the region’s harvest.
Bar V
For a laid-back, all-day hangout, Bar V is a sun-drenched terrace overlooking Kildeparken, where light bites and colorful cocktails flow from morning till night. There’s no fuss here, just a comfy seat, the gentle sea breeze, and dishes that could be small plates or snacks—think avocado toast, Mediterranean salads, or fresh seafood. It’s the kind of place where you can linger with a drink, chat with friends, and soak up the Marbella sun.
