Address: Playa de Nagüeles, 29602 Marbella, Spain
Sitting pretty on Marbella’s legendary Golden Mile, Playa de Nagüeles is where understated luxury meets beach day bliss. Just steps from the iconic Marbella Club and Puente Romano, this beach is clean, central, and undeniably chic—yet still low-key enough to feel like a hidden gem. It’s ideal for couples, families, or anyone craving soft sand, clear water, and top-tier service without the crowds of Puerto Banús.
What sets Nagüeles apart is its polished, peaceful vibe. The new seafront promenade is perfect for early evening strolls (romantic alert), and the beach itself is framed by lush gardens and classic Andalusian architecture. You’ll find everything you need—sunbeds, showers, lifeguards, and nearby beach clubs serving ice-cold cocktails. Plus, its location halfway between Marbella town and Banús makes it an easy base for a full day out.
This is the kind of place where the Old Hollywood spirit of Marbella still lingers, especially with its links to the golden age of the Marbella Club in the 1950s. So if you’re looking to sunbathe where royalty, artists, and international icons once wandered, Playa de Nagüeles delivers—elegant, effortless, and still very much in style.
