Just okay. Quiet and touristy. Not a lot to do. Many businesses still closed for the season. Lots of restaurants, mostly catering to tourist, which is to say, not great authentic food. More

This was a really nice area to walk around in. It was a pleasant change from the beach front area. I had read on trip advisor before I left that this was an area to take time out to see and I would fully agree - beautiful buildings, beautiful flowers and quaint shops. Give it a look! More

The Plaza de Los Naranjos is the focal point for tourists in the old town district of Marbella, and it’s easy to see why. The adjectives such as charming, lovely etc. used by other reviewers are well deserved.
