In the centre but immediate location can be intimidating
Really enjoyed Puerto Banus. Nice restaurants, good bars. Rooftop of apartment looks over the marina, which is great. Nice to chill out after your day with a drink & friends. Apartment is a bit tired looking, aircon is not great. 3 bedrooms. Master bedroom is very spacious with ensuite & window. 1 other double bedroom, no window & shared bathroom. 3rd bedroom is very small with 2 single beds, mattresses could do with being changed as not very comfortable, one or two springs coming through. Room has no window & no area to put clothes. The 3rd bedroom is not really suitable for 2 adults. Apartment location is right in the centre of Puerto Banus, which is great but there is a nightclub down the steps where the apartment is accessed which is open to 7.00am. Music could be heard in the bedrooms through-out the night. At the bottom of the stairs where apartment is accessed there are many local 'characters' gathered, which can feel very intimidating. Puerto Banus is definitely not a family resort , more suited to adults only. Marbella Old Town is about a 10 min tax ride. Dont get an Uber as they are really expensive, locate a local taxi. You can also get the water taxi which takes about 30mins. The Old Town is really lovely & a completely different vibe. Lots of squares, narrow old streets & churches, restaurants and shops.
