Marbella has many distinctive qualities that make it a unique destination, but its climate is undoubtedly the most striking of all. With over 300 days of sunshine a year and a mild climate even in winter, it is a popular year-round destination. While many cities around the world are blanketed in snow and cold during these months, Marbella offers a unique blend of luxury, glamour and mild temperatures that appeal to those looking for a different but equally magical Christmas.
Marbella has everything you need to enjoy the festive season in style:
Luxury christmas shopping in Marbella
Christmas is synonymous with gifts and in Marbella, shopping is a luxury experience. The town is full of international brand shops, exclusive jewellers and designer boutiques. If you’re looking for a special gift, head to Puerto Banús, one of the most exotic places on the Costa del Sol, where you can find everything from that top-of-the-range watch you’ve always wanted to the latest trends in fashion.
During these last months of the year, Marbella’s shops are often decorated with elegant decorations and lights that make shopping a truly festive experience. Don’t forget to take a stroll around the old town and visit the various local shops and Christmas markets to complete your experience.
High level gastronomy
Another fundamental point of Marbella is its wide and varied gastronomic offer, where you can find the most Michelin-starred restaurants, haute cuisine proposals and high quality local products.
What is more, many of these restaurants offer special services during the Christmas period, giving you the opportunity to sample this gastronomic offer with magical menus adapted to these dates, with dishes that combine local ingredients with the best culinary techniques.
And if you prefer a more intimate celebration with your loved ones, don’t hesitate to organise a private dinner with a chef. In Marbella, private chef services are available for those who wish to enjoy the finest cuisine in the comfort and privacy of a villa or luxury residence.
Unique christmas events
During the festive season, Marbella dresses up with a calendar of events and activities ranging from exclusive concerts by national and international artists to charity galas. Glamour and luxury are combined with festive activities for those looking for unique experiences, such as art exhibitions in the city’s best and most visited venues.
In addition, the City Council organises an annual Christmas light show that illuminates and decorates the main streets of the city centre, transforming the city and creating dreamy night-time strolls… Not to be missed!
For those looking to relax and unwind during these months, Marbella has some of the best spas and wellness centres in the country. Why not treat yourself to a spa treatment after a busy day of shopping?
If you are thinking of enjoying all that Marbella has to offer over the Christmas period, doing so from the best possible accommodation will allow you to live the experience in total comfort. Our luxury apartments and villas are the perfect retreat for an exclusive Christmas holiday.
