Don Carlos Marbella is an elegant oasis on the Costa del Sol, steps away from the Mediterranean Sea. This beachfront paradise is surrounded by 20,000 square metres of lush tropical gardens winding around seven pools, with every detail crafted by the award-winning Jaime Beriestain Studio, perfectly capturing Andalusian charm.
The property features 284 refined rooms and suites, along with 24 exclusive residences, perfect for families or larger groups seeking refined comfort. Ultimate opulence awaits in the 2-Bedroom Presidential Penthouse Suite and the 1-Bedroom Penthouse Suite, offering seclusion with panoramic vistas of the coastline. Begin the day with a lavish buffet breakfast at Los Naranjos, then savour poolside lunch at Sol y Sombra, a refurbished chiringuito with southern soul and international flavours. For a modern twist, dinner à la carte may be enjoyed with stunning sea views from the terrace. Signature barefoot elegance awaits at two beach clubs: Nikki Beach, a must-visit destination for music, sunshine, and effortless style by the sea, and Lucia Summer Club, a unique spot to embrace the laid-back Mediterranean spirit with family.
Don Carlos Spa spans 1,600 square metres dedicated to wellbeing, featuring water circuits, sauna, steam baths, an aromatherapy cabin, and a full menu of treatments. Created in collaboration with Natura Bissé and Alqvimia, the rituals blend noble ingredients with advanced techniques such as Indiba and LPG. World-class instruction is offered at the Rafa Nadal Tennis Center, with seven clay courts and two padel courts framed by tropical gardens, alongside champion-level coaching. A state-of-the-art gym, cross-fit areas, and an outdoor terrace complete the fitness offering.
Families are warmly welcomed with activities for all ages: little adventurers enjoy indoor play areas, while older children can experience the Wild Ocean pool, slides, and balance park. The hotel also sets a new standard for meetings and events with seventeen naturally lit meeting rooms and expansive outdoor spaces catering to all needs. Heritage is present in every detail — the Mediterranean light playing over white stucco towers, elegant guests wandering from the lobby to the beach clubs, and gardens that whisper of an earlier era of style and ease.
