Marbella Club, the legendary resort in Southern Spain known for its rustic allure, old-school glamour and Hollywood clientele, is celebrating 70 years of uninhibited glamour this year with a series of summer-long festivities that mirror its core pillars: gastronomy, culture, arts, sustainability and wellbeing. Founded nearly a hundred years ago by Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe, the beach club maintains its original magic but continues routinely reinventing itself to preserve its spot as one of Europe\u2019s most sought-after hideaways.<\/p>\n

Having heard about the blue waters of the Mediterranean and the enticing scent of fig trees and pines from his cousin Soriano, Prince Max von Hohenlohe revved up his Rolls-Royce Phantom and headed towards southern Spain in 1946. Making a quick pit stop at the rural estate of Santa Margarita for a lunchtime picnic, the royal couldn\u2019t resist envisioning what the picturesque property could become. A year later, his son, Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, returned to buy this rustic hideaway. What started as the family\u2019s humble Mediterranean enclave later evolved into the Marbella Club.<\/p>\n

Since its inception, the hotel has not shied away from star-studded clientele, which has persisted throughout the decades. From Hollywood film stars to European royalty and nobility, the club welcomed VIP regulars, such as Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Bridgette Bardot, Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Liza Minelli and Princess Diana (to name a few).<\/p>\n

Today, the property boasts an impressive collection of 115 rooms and 17 villas \u2013 a continuation of the club\u2019s charming feel and village-like community. Most recently, the hotel acquired a 50,000 sq m of land known as Finca Ana Maria, where the summertime festivities will occur. Over the last five years, the grounds, which hold Mediterranean sea vistas and a backdrop of the Concha Mountain, were transformed into a secluded space for holistic wellbeing.<\/p>\n

The summer festivities will kick off with a weekend-long birthday party with a piano bar, live flamenco and guest DJs. Following this, there will be an unveiling of Finca Ana Maria, where guests will enjoy garden games such as padel, tennis and backgammon tournaments. In line with June\u2019s Andalusian festival of San Juan, the schedule will focus on health rituals at the club\u2019s new wellness facilities. Rounding up the celebrations, greenhouses will turned into perfumeries, as per a unique collaboration with Loewe.<\/p>\n
