Puerto Banus

Puerto Banús stands as one of the Costa del Sol’s most prestigious marine complexes, located 6.5 kilometers west of Marbella town and connected by the famous Golden Mile. Built in May 1970 by José Banús and designed by Swiss architect Noldi Schreck with Mexican assistant Marcos Sáinz, this Mediterranean-style marina has evolved into one of Europe’s most exclusive resort destinations.

 

The development’s opening ceremony set the tone for its future, hosting 1,700 distinguished guests including the Aga Khan, Roman Polanski, Prince Rainier, and Princess Grace of Monaco, with entertainment by Julio Iglesias. Today, Puerto Banús attracts over 5 million annual visitors, cementing its position as one of Southern Spain’s premier luxury destinations.

 

The area’s strategic location, just 40 minutes from Málaga airport and nestled between Marbella town and San Pedro de Alcántara, combines accessibility with exclusivity. The development features a unique blend of traditional Mediterranean architecture with modern luxury amenities, centered around its iconic marina filled with super yachts and surrounded by designer boutiques.
