About Marbella

Marbella is a resort on Spain's Costa del Sol, a whitewashed old town and seafront promenade backed by the Sierra Blanca, with a yacht marina.

Marbella lies on the Costa del Sol in Andalusia, with the limestone peaks of the Sierra Blanca rising straight behind the town and sheltering it from the cold north. The old town is a compact grid of whitewashed lanes, flower pots and plazas, centred on the Plaza de los Naranjos, a square of orange trees, with the remains of a Moorish castle nearby.
