From Marbella to the mountains.
Beaches, marinas, white villages and a golden coastline: the best of the Costa del Sol, all within reach. This is why guests keep coming back.
Marbella & Puerto Banús
The heart of the coast: Marbella pairs a charming whitewashed old town, with orange trees, tiled squares and tapas bars, with the glamour of Puerto Banús, where yachts, beach clubs and designer boutiques line the marina. Golden beaches run for kilometres, and the Paseo Marítimo promenade links it all on foot or by bike.
Estepona, Benahávis & the white villages
West of Marbella, Estepona has reinvented itself as the “Garden of the Costa del Sol”, its old town a canvas of flower pots and street murals. Inland, the mountain village of Benahávis is the region’s culinary capital, while Casares and Mijas Pueblo cling to the hillsides with sweeping views over the Mediterranean.
Málaga & the wider coast
Half an hour east, Málaga blends a walkable historic centre, the Picasso Museum and a buzzing food scene with a modern port and city beaches. Beyond it stretch 150 kilometres of coastline with more than 300 days of sun a year, from the family resorts of Fuengirola to quiet coves under the mountains.
In every REX stay you’ll find local tips from people who know the coast inside out — not a standard list, but the beach clubs, chiringuitos and viewpoints we actually go to ourselves.
