Marbella lies in the Costa del Sol, the sun-drenched coastal stretch of the Andalusia region, home to seven UNESCO World Heritage sites and some of the most scenic rural communities in Spain. Located on a peaceful street in Marbella’s old town, Hotel Claude Marbella is a 45-minute drive southwest of Málaga and its airport. Puerto Banús is within easy reach and the Mediterranean is a 10-minute walk away. Beachgoers can sunbathe at Paseo Marítimo or Cabopino Beach and history buffs can get their fill of Roman ruins from Sohail Castle, just 23 minutes away. It’s a mountainous one-hour drive inland to Ronda and about a two-hour drive to Granada, Sevilla, and Cordoba.
