Note Blu, New Brasserie

By far the newest addition to Marbella. Note Blue. They call themselves 'new brasserie', but they sell themselves short. A great ambiance and magical appearance. They give the color blue a new meaning. Start in the Piano Bar and then move to the restaurant. Not done with Nota Blu after dinner? We get that. Luckily they also have a club!

Noso Summer Club

Delicious lunch on the beach, a beach bed or dinner? Sometimes we have such a good time that we do all three on the same day. It is simply too beautiful and cozy to leave. A delicious card with Mediterranean dishes to share. Sushi is also highly recommended. We definitely recommend this place for a wonderful day at the beach.
