We had a nice walk, leisurely. Ate at a seafood place right on the water. Laid back and relaxing. Food here was very good. Was a bit hard to find by car, it's is hidden behind some buildings. More

NIce to see how the millionaires spend their money i.e Yachts and Cars. Also fun to checkout the wannabees in their Armani and Gucci sandals. An expensive place to buy a coffee but it costs nothing to wander around and take pictures of the boats and sights. More

Superb fun watching the designer labelled botoxed posers strutting down the port side!! Spot the 'real' rich people as opposed to the 'wanabees'! More

The marina is cracking - lovely views, amazing boats/yauchts and some nice shops and restaurants but you can't get away from all the folk with money and the folk who want to have money! You also get a lot of hassle from the "looky-looky" men - worth a look but not sure I would want to spend a lot of... More

We have been visiting Marbella for over a decade, I remember my first visit to the port I was blown away by is beauty, cleanliness and amazing boats, It felt like a very rich, exclusive area and somewhere I dreamed of living. Today its really a different story the port still as boats but they are not so great anymore... More

I'm afraid this seems all too common and to be fair we should have been more on our guard. A good friend had his stag do here a couple of years ago and a member of the group was violently mugged. When I arrived with my stag party I was infomred that the owner of the villa we stayed in... More

The place is packed with foreigners and show off middle easters and their cars that might chase you desperately around (even going after you on the nearby road) but has great restaurants, probably too expensive for the locals. I am afraid to say that restaurants in downtown Marbella did not come even close to the restaurants at Puerto Banus Marina,... More
