Comments(0)Marbella Spain – a way of life
Marbella in Southern Spain on the Costa del Sol has that very famous and so apt motto “A Way of Life” and, undoubtedly that does convey in many ways the effervescent spirit of this outstanding luxurious coastal resort.
Like wise having a Marbella Hot Tub for entertaining and relaxing is also a way of life.
Here in Marbella you can find entertainment and the arts for varied tastes.
There are many outstanding art and fashion shows held in Marbella often for leading and exclusive brands.
Marbella still remains a very favourite destination for many and has much going for it.
Yet again Marbella and its environs are remaining and becoming a desired location with the famous and those who enjoy the best in life.
In central Marbella there is the famous Orange Square, or “La Plaza de los Naranjos” it is a lovely Marbella square and really worth a visit. Here one can see interesting Marbella buildings, bars, restaurants, shops of all kinds including outstanding art galleries. Many outstanding fashion shops can also be found in Marbella.
One should have a good look round and make the time to visit all the surrounding narrow streets where peoples homes and shops just seem to merge to create a small village atmosphere reminiscent of the famous Brighton Lanes in England instead of a very busy town.
There are many varied restaurants to choose from around this Marbella square.
From this square it is a very short stroll to the sea front where there are also many pleasant Marbella restaurants.
The Marbella Marina and Port is regularly a host to many top line cruise ships.
The views that one can find in Marbella are great in that you can have mountain views (of the La Concha Mountain) and able to see the Atlas Mountains in Morroco and of course Gibraltar.
La Concha is that very striking mountain that sits behind Marbella and its image changes quite strikingly depending on where you are viewing it from. It rises in height over 1,200 metres so is quite a height by any standards.
La Concha in Spanish transalates to “The Shell” La Concha sits firmly and squarely at the end of the Sierra Blanca range.
Not far away is the equally famous resort and Marina of Puerto Banus or give it its original name Puerto Jose Banus. Another stunning location packed full of interesting bars and restaurants.
As always there are new restaurants opening and now we have Novellis at the Lorcimar Hotel (soon to change its name to Sisu Boutique Hotel) in Banus.
I have met Jean Christope Novelli and have had the fantastic pleasure of attending one of his workshops in Spain.
He is an outstanding chef and a real master of his art.
So this is an ever changing and growing area as I said Marbella “it is A Way of Life”.
