Spa Hotel Review: Marbella Club, Spain
Tell us about the resort – what makes Marbella Club so special?
Situated directly on Marbella beach, Andalucía, the MC Club provides an idyllic location for those that enjoy beach life with glorious weather and serene ocean views. More like a village than a resort, the MC club provides a plethora of activities for the health-conscious traveler who also enjoys being treated like an A-list celebrity. Marbella Club also provides an unrivalled children’s club with unbelievable toys, games and classes – it’s one of the best I’ve seen. Parents can drop their children off and make the most of the club’s facilities with the comforting knowledge that they will not be bored. The long beachside promenade in front of the resort is also a great spot for walking or running.

How was the food?
Spanish cuisine, created and presented to the most opulent standard I have ever experienced. The breakfast included the most delicious fruit and freshly concocted smoothies combined with an abundance of traditional options. I lunched directly on the beach at MC club’s restaurant where the chef could create almost anything I desired. My vegan partner was impressed with how flexible the menu could be around his requirements. Dinner can only be described as a culinary show of excellence with a mouthwatering choice of luxury and health conscious options.

How was the Spa?
Starting with the state of the art Thalasso circuit in the pool to soften my skin and relax, I was then whisked away into one of the calming treatment rooms for a soothing cranial massage under warm seawater rain with acupressure on head, face, neck and shoulders that re-balances the body. That night I slept like a baby and awoke to glowing skin.
Tell us about the activities?
I enjoyed having a personal training session at the superbly equipped gym. I had a Kabat Stretching Session, which helps to unlock deep muscle elasticity and the correction of movement patterns, and bespoke relaxation techniques to reach a state of general wellbeing. My PT was an expert in many areas such as Pilates, Yoga and holistic body treatments including Reiki.
Who would you recommend Marbella Club to?
Professionals with and without families who want to be treated to an opulent level of service and surroundings. Those that want to take a healthy break from a busy lifestyle and enjoy some of the finest dining available.
