Gran Marbella Resort & Beach Club will make its highly-anticipated spring debut on Marbella’s Playa del Real de Zaragoza shoreline, marking Iconic Luxury Hotels’ first property in Spain. This Andalusian resort will bring 125 rooms and 10 signature suites, many boasting private pools or jacuzzis with panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea.

The resort’s aesthetic has been brought to life by the renowned design firm Goddard Littlefair, known for hospitality projects blending contemporary and classic influences. The interiors will showcase custom furnishings, premium finishes, and a color palette inspired by the surrounding hues of the Andalusian coastline.
Culinary experiences at Gran Marbella Resort & Beach Club will be diverse and exceptional, encompassing four distinct dining venues. Guests can anticipate a gastronomic journey featuring both international and locally inspired cuisine, with a particular emphasis on fresh seafood and authentic Andalusian flavors.

The resort's commitment to wellness is evident in its comprehensive spa and wellness center, offering an array of treatments and holistic therapies. Additional amenities include three swimming pools and direct access to the pristine beach. A curated selection of activities and excursions will also be available, allowing guests to immerse themselves in Marbella's rich culture and natural surroundings.

As part of the Iconic Luxury Hotels collection, Gran Marbella Resort & Beach Club joins a prestigious lineup of properties, including Cliveden House, Chewton Glen, The Lygon Arms, 11 Cadogan Gardens, The Mayfair Townhouse, The Chelsea Townhouse, and Hotel Excelsior Venice Lido Resort. Among these, Palm House Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida, has emerged as one of the brand’s most celebrated properties since its reopening in late 2024. Recognized by TIME Magazine as one of The World's Greatest Places of 2025, Palm House blends mid-century elegance with contemporary luxury, offering spacious accommodations with floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies, and design elements that reflect the vibrancy of Palm Beach. Its acclaimed Palm Bar, with striking pink Murano glass chandeliers, adds a glamorous touch to the hotel’s sophisticated yet playful atmosphere.
With the addition of Gran Marbella Resort & Beach Club, Iconic Luxury Hotels continues its global expansion, bringing its signature hospitality and glamour to the shores of Spain.
