Puerto Banus

Puerto Banus was developed in the beginning of the 70s of last century on a particularly beautiful spot in Marbella, by the local property developer Jose Banús, actually a close friend to Franco. The beautiful set up, along with the commitment with a different and distinctive style in a lovely climate has raised right from the start the interest of the international Jet Set. For many years Puerto Banus is now, especially in summer, the playground for the wealthier citizens and the place to see and to be seen for publicly known and well-off people.

The area is conceived as a high-class and high-price resort for citizens who can afford a rather luxurious lifestyle, exclusive shopping and sumptuous leisure on the Costa del Sol.
