The jewel of Marbella’s famous Golden Mile is undoubtedly the most prestigious beach resort in Spain and for many in Europe, Puente Romano Beach Resort. A five-star hotel complex that represents the Marbella paradise of glamour and the most exclusive lifestyle.
Puente Romano is much more than a wonderful ultra-exclusive hotel-resort. You can live, rent and invest in Puente Romano. You can enjoy its lifestyle without being a hotel client, by renting or owning a part of this exquisite Costa del Sol location. For us, Puente Romano is also our home.
Puente Romano is the name given to one of the most complete, exclusive and sought after areas on the Costa del Sol.
It is a group of ultra-exclusive urbanisations divided into different phases and offering flats, penthouses and villas for both purchase and rent. All around a 5-star hotel that bears its name and that nourishes the rest of the area with numerous services that make Puente Romano a distinguished place.
The hotel is built around an authentic Roman bridge that formed part of the Via Augusta, the Roman road that connected Cadiz with Rome. The bridge is still in a good state of preservation, despite its age, and can be visited. There are other Roman archaeological sites of great interest in Marbella and in the province.
Puente Romano is located on the beachfront, in the heart of Marbella’s exclusive Golden Mile. The official address is Puente Romano Beach Resort Hotel, Bulevar Príncipe Alfonso de Hohenlohe, 29602 Marbella. It is 500 metres from the famous Marbella Club Hotel, with the centre of Marbella to the west and Puerto Banús to the east. It also has good connections by sea, road, train and even international airports such as Gibraltar and Malaga.
We can divide Puente Romano into six main zones. All of them have in common a low construction height, a maximum of three floors, security services and lush and exotic gardens. It should also be noted that they are designed as a modern Andalusian village, as designed by its first architect, Melvin Villarroel.
Throughout the area of Puente Romano, we can highlight:
Built in 1974, the hotel has 26 buildings and a total of 190 apartments in suites. Although many are managed by the hotel itself, there is a select group of apartments-suites that operate independently and can be bought or rented. Its great advantage over other phases is that the suites have very close to all the culinary, relaxation and commercial facilities of the hotel.
This 81-room adults-only hotel is a paradise for all of the senses, with elegant Japanese-inspired interiors and a collection of fine dining venues. It pampers guests with exclusive services such as in-room cocktail making and a private members’ lounge.
Outside, it joins the Puente Romano Beach Resort surrounded by tropical gardens, ceramic walls, fountains and promenades, often laced with traces of Andalusian and Asian influences.
This phase is no longer managed as a hotel, but as a totally residential urbanisation. These homes have a somewhat more inland location, but are actually only a few minutes walk from the beach. It is a U-shaped complex with manicured tropical gardens and a large swimming pool. The properties range from one to three bedrooms, the sizes range from 100 m2 to 136 m2.
This is the largest construction phase of all and is situated to the west of the hotel, and consists of three independent gated developments.
It is made up of three zones:
Opened in 1992, composed of 13 buildings with a total of 78 apartments and penthouses. These properties are located on the beachfront. This area stands out for its elaborate landscaping on different levels and has been awarded for its originality. Waterfalls, bridges and winding waterways full of water lilies and colorful fish give the garden an Asian fairytale air, and an infinity pool that communicates with the rest of the green areas of the urbanisation.
Opened in 1992, it consists of 12 buildings, with a total of 72 apartments and penthouses. It is located on the north side of the Tennis Club. This Andalusian-style construction is complemented by touches of Roman and Muslim architecture. The complex is full of palm trees, fountains, terracotta walkways and beautiful tiles with geometric motifs. El Jardín Andaluz is the urbanisation with the largest swimming pool.
Opened in 1986, it consists of 16 buildings, with a total of 96 apartments and penthouses. As the name suggests, it is designed to give an arabesque first impression, with touches very close to the gardens of the Alhambra in Granada. It is full of fountains and irrigation channels that generate a continuous and relaxing sound of water. The garden flows into the promenade of Marbella. It is the only residential complex that is completely surrounded by a fence that gives more privacy to the area.
Built in 2003, designed by Carlos Lamas, it consists of 3 buildings (Córdoba, Granada and Málaga) with 6 units in each block. They are distinguished by having a more vertical design, which allows you to have spectacular views, but without exceeding three floors. Some of the penthouses have a private Jacuzzi on the terraces.
This is the new area of Puente Romano. Completion of this project is expected by the end of 2024. This project promises to be the ultimate expression of luxury and will offer another 70 units of between two and five bedrooms. It will have its own Beach Club area and most of the homes will have sea views.
Puente Romano has a dozen very exclusive villas and only a few are available to buy or rent. They are designed with spacious interiors, including at least 4 bedrooms, private pool and gardens, parking, sauna and even a gym.
We have some of these villas for sale that you can visit in this link.
Of course, the resort is constantly evolving, has attracted the interest of international firms and this season offers some very attractive new developments.

Not only do we love our apartment but we couldn’t have chosen a better area. We are five minutes away from the paseo where we can bicycle or walk along the ocean and stop for a swim along the way. Across the street is the tennis and paddle club where we play almost everyday. After lounging at the beach, there are endless incredible choices of restaurants literally next door!

We came to Marbella in the winter of 2021 to escape Covid lockdowns in Canada. We loved the weather and the Golden Mile area and ended up buying a penthouse in Puente Romano. This was one of the best decisions of our life! Life in Puente Romano is easy and sophisticated. A 100 meters walk takes us to the Paseo where we can walk endlessly by the sea or simply go to the beach for a swim in the Mediterranean. There are a dozen top notch restaurants within walking distance from our apartment.We can reach the tennis courts or the swimming pool in a couple of minutes by foot. We have breakfast on our terrace listening only to the sound of seabirds.It is always sunny and warm in Marbella. Hard to imagine such a great quality of life but now it is ours for good!
