Just steps away from the sand of Marbella’s Golden Mile, Nobu Hotel Marbella is an elegant destination hotel that excels in entertainment, food and overall holiday indulgence.

As one would expect from a hotel that bears the well-respected and much-loved Nobu name, the rooms and suites are beautifully decorated with an Asian minimalist style in pale wood furniture and soft, natural fabrics. Each room has a private balcony with views of tropical gardens, the Andalusian architecture of the resort, or the hotel’s lively central courtyard La Plaza. A relaxed aura will surround you thanks to the calming aesthetic of relaxing tones and natural materials but if you’re a light sleeper, it’s worth requesting a room overlooking the gardens rather than La Plaza.

Travel to this hotel with British Airways Holidays and the calmness will begin from the moment you book thanks to ATOL protection that keeps you and your money safe, a 24-hour holiday helpline and the knowledge that all hotel and car-hire partners adhere to the operator’s high safety standards. Plus, with flexible payment options (with deposits from just £60pp and no balance due until four weeks before travel for short-haul holidays*), and the option for British Airways Executive Club members to use Avios Points for part payments, even buying the holiday is a relaxing experience.

Relaxation goes hand in hand with an ethos of wellness at Nobu Marbella, a concept that threads through the entire experience. In the award-winning Six Senses Spa expert therapists deliver an array of treatments and pampering opportunities with signature treatments inspired by the local area. They make liberal use of products indigenous to southern Spain, including mountain herbs, sea salt and extra-virgin olive oil. There’s also a herbal steam room, sauna, hammam and a circuit of plunge pools.

At the world-class Health and Fitness centre get fit to the sounds of live DJs or get physical in the Everlast boxing ring. Or head to the beautiful next-door hotel Puente Romano Beach Resort, where guests of Nobu Marbella have access to the facilities including a glorious 10-court tennis club (lessons and social tennis available as well as the increasingly popular padel), an outdoor gym and daily complimentary classes such as yoga and pilates.

Guests also have access to this beachfront resort’s extensive range of restaurants and pools meaning you can eat, drink and relax in different spots every day. The central square La Plaza is the courtyard at the heart of the two hotels, and is Marbella's social and epicurean hotspot, where a buzzing sociable atmosphere is twinned with great bars, clubs and internationally renowned restaurants.

The heated adults-only pool sits on a raised terrace with luxury daybeds and loungers combining with cold booster shots and electrolyte enhanced mocktails to create the best place imaginable to feel very good about doing very little indeed. Families are also beautifully catered for thanks to next-door Puente Romano’s excellent kids’ club, a beautiful pool and an eclectic program of sports and activities for all ages, which Nobu guests are free to use.

Naturally, with a Nobu hotel, the food is central to the experience. Nobu Matsuhisa’s acclaimed restaurant, run by Nobu’s first female executive chef, is located just steps away from the rooms, offering iconic Japanese cuisine and fresh sushi. Guests can embark on a culinary experience by Chef Eleni Manousou and her creative mixologist. Nobu signature dishes are paired with gin-based cocktails, featuring indigenous botanicals such as Geinmacha tea and the Sakura flower. Kids can enjoy a sushi masterclass with Nobu chefs.

Other options as part of La Plaza are COYA, which will take you on an immersive journey to Latin America with Peruvian food; Cipriani offers Italian classics for lunch and dinner; or savour the essence of contemporary Greek-Mediterranean cuisine at GAIA Marbella; and Leña Marbella, created by the award-winning Chef Dani Garcia and voted the most beautiful restaurant in the world, is an innovative grill house.

Last, but not least, there are two golf courses nearby for guests, so however you want to fill your days or nights, Nobu Marbella has holiday heaven on tap. And with British Airways Holidays you have a great value holiday with the quality and peace of mind you'd expect.
