Marbella is one of Europe's most famous holiday towns that never fails to surprise first-time visitors with its aristocratic charm and beauty. It offers sweeping beaches, immaculate promenades and excellent shopping facilities. Marbella's old town is a maze of narrow cobbled streets lined with white washed houses, shops, bars and restaurants. In the heart of the old town is Plaza de los Naranjos, a delightful square shaded by orange trees where you can enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants whilst watching the world go by. There are several museums and the remains of the old castle, located just off the square which is well worth a visit during your villa holiday to Marbella. Marbella is also well-known for its 17 miles of coastline with the most famous part being Marbella's Golden Mile. The Golden Mile is made up of many different beaches between Marbella and Puerto Banus and is flanked by a recently built promenade, designer hotels and beach bars. For those who enjoy relaxing on holiday with a round of golf then Marbella is the perfect base for a Spanish golfing holiday. There are several good golf courses within the area, including Los Naranjos, Dama de Noche, Guadalmina and the world famous Valderama course.
