Marbella is located on the Costa del Sol of Southern Spain approximately 40 minutes from the newly expanded Malaga airport.
Marbella town itself is a pleasant coastal town to walk around and combines a beautiful old town known as "El casco antiguo" with its quaint Spanish tapas bars and small cafes and boutique stores with the popular nightlife areas around the port and sea front. The promenade is fairly long and makes for a lovely walk or you could also hire a bicycle from one of several bike stands around the town and take a cycle along the beach front.
Marbella's central position on the Costa del Sol means that it is very popular indeed with both those people looking for a short summer holiday or those looking to live all year round in the incredible climate Marbella enjoys and of course, there is a good selection of stunning Marbella villas for sale that can be found.
Inland from Marbella the Spanish countryside is renowned for offering gorgeous scenery, peace and tranquility.
Marbella is easy to get to from so many other countries and once you are in Marbella the travel network around Spain and the rest of Europe by road and rail is incredibly easy helping keep it's popularity all year round.
