After a 20-million-euro renovation, the hotel arrives in Marbella with signature architecture, while the property also boasts 200 rooms, including 24 suites, and a unique architectural style that combines Mediterranean influences with innovative, organic forms.
Designed by Adriana and Álvaro Sans, the building offers both aesthetic appeal and functional spaces, with rooms providing views of the Mediterranean, Sierra Blanca Mountains, and interior gardens. The hotel is designed to create a sensory experience, integrating nature, wellness, and modern design elements throughout the property.
“ With the opening of ME Marbella, we celebrate the arrival of our most avant-garde brand to one of the most iconic destinations in the Mediterranean. Marbella is, without a doubt, one of the great jewels of luxury in Spain, and for ME by Meliá, it is a strategic milestone to land in a location that embodies, like few others, contemporary luxury, social energy, and a connection with local culture.” – Gabriel Escarrer, CEO of Meliá Hotels International
In terms of culinary offerings, ME Marbella introduces a new dining experience in collaboration with Pont Hospitality. The hotel features three dining venues: La Terraza Del Med, Solana, and Barlume, each offering a distinctive interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine. These spaces aim to elevate the dining experience on the Costa del Sol with a focus on local ingredients, innovative presentation, and a vibrant atmosphere.
The hotel also introduces ME Marbella’s Oasis, an inland beach club that serves as a social hub, integrating water, architecture, and music. This area enhances the property’s role as a dynamic space, providing a unique focal point for both guests and the local community.
ME Marbella also presents a range of curated experiences, from wellness rituals to cultural workshops, designed to offer guests a deeper connection with the destination. Exclusive offerings such as a tapas tour and private boat trips on the Costa del Sol provide opportunities to explore the region’s unique culture and heritage.
ME by Meliá continues to expand its presence in Southern Europe, further cementing its position in the Mediterranean market. Following the opening of ME Malta, its first hotel on the island, the brand adds to its growing footprint in the region. Located in a 20-story building designed by architect Zaha Hadid, ME Malta offers 113 rooms, including 27 suites and 35 residences. This new property complements the brand’s recent developments in Palma, where Meliá is undertaking significant renovations, including a 10-million-euro investment in the Gran Meliá Victoria and transforming the Palacio Avenida into an Innside hotel. These moves demonstrate ME by Meliá’s commitment to enhancing its portfolio in key Mediterranean destinations, offering guests unique, high-end experiences in some of the region’s most sought-after locations.
