Where’s the party?
In the summer months you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to places to party, and if you’re looking for a good few days of luxurious, hedonistic fun then you’ve definitely come to the right place.
As with any trip, it can sometimes feel a little daunting having to organise where to go, but luckily Sintillate Marbella has been around for years and have earned themselves a stellar reputation for being Marbella’s best-known party organisers, with nights at some of Puerto Banus’s most sought after hotspots (check out the Sintillate Marbella website here).
Pangea is one of the most popular pre-club destinations, with a large, open-air terrace and plenty of space to mingle. It’s also handily positioned on the marina front, and attracts many a yacht owner looking for the party. Newscafe is also a popular place to start out for drinks, and 2013 sees them open their brand new and exclusive members terrace.
If you’re looking for somewhere to carry on the party, there are plenty of clubs to choose from. Tibu is just a short walk from the marina and has a uber-sleek and upmarket vibe in the club, with an open-air terrace to chill when you need some space. Aqwa Mist sits directly under La Sala and boasts a large VIP area, including a secret VIP room out the back with it’s own hot tub (SERIOUS). It’s had visits from the likes of Eva Longoria, so you’ll definitely be in good company there.
Other nightclubs include Sleek, Funky Buddha and Olivia Valere, once known as Marbella’s most exclusive nightspot, so your nights will be far from dull.
Head on your holiday at the right time and you’ll be lucky enough to be there for one of the infamous daytime Sintillate Champagne Spray parties hosted at Ocean Club, which happen on several dates throughout the summer. This is indulgent hedonism at its true core and people often plan their trip around this party, so if you can make it down, then this will definitely be a pool party you won’t forget.
Sala Beach also hosts numerous day parties throughout the summer, as well as being the perfect place to chill in the day. This year, they’ll be hosting their infamous (and free!) Love Juice parties again, which are also not to be missed and attract a celebrity crowd year after year.

Where to stay:
There really is something to suit every budget on your trip to Marbella, from high-end luxury to cheap and cheerful. We opted out of staying at one of the many hotels on offer.
As a group of girls, this proves perfect as you can each have your own room and still have the luxury of a shared communal area, balcony and kitchen to gossip about last night’s debauchery and compare outfits for the evening. [View the lush apartment we stayed in here]. Of course, there are many things to take into consideration here including location and size, but if there’s a good group of you this option is extremely cost-effective
Of course, there are also plenty of hotels to choose from in Puerto Banus, with personal favourites including Sisu Boutique, H10 Andulucia Plaza and the Hotel Marbella Club.

Don’t leave without…
Blagging your way onto a yacht – it HAS to be done. Luckily, if blagging really isn’t your style, Sala Beach has a yacht that is available for charter throughout the summer if you book in advance. So whether you want to sightsee, dolphin watch, or simply lounge on board with a glass of champagne, there are different price structures to suit all, making it a perfect luxury for your girly weekend away (enquire here).
