Nobody does it better than Nobu Marbella

Since the revolutionary Japanese x Peruvian restaurant's inception in 1994, Nobu has become more than one of the most fashionable dining establishments to see and be seen at.

Launched by world-celebrated chef Nobuyuki Matsuhisa and Hollywood-heavyweight Robert De Niro - with 46 restaurants worldwide, 13 hotels and a further 6 in the works - the Nobu-ification of the hospitality industry is well underway offering its guests pure immersion in an idyllic life of zen and sophistication.

Synonymous with exclusivity and elegance, the word Nobu evokes a lifestyle of balanced wellness and indulgence. Far from the simple decadence that is typical of the luxury sector.

Nobu Marbella in Puente Romano is one of the more recent additions to the Nobu empire.

Situated within an Andalusian utopia filled with angel trumpets, blossoming botany, babbling brooks and birdsong - a stay feels more fairytale than holiday.

Easy-going village-vibes permeate the air, with friends just as easily made as attention avoided. In fact, Nobu Marbella is something of a sanctuary of discretion for celebrity couples seeking to escape life in the long lens...

This is the vision of co-founder Robert De Niro who, when visiting, reportedly stays in the Studio Suite.

Exquisitely designed for open-planned relaxation and entertaining; the studio suite encapsulates multiple dining and lounging areas indoors and outdoors on the extended terrace overlooking the main social square.

Here the pursuit of enjoyment is a seamless affair unencumbered by fuss and time-wasting. Put simply: everything works and flows. From the bluetooth boombox that brings your personal beat to balcony, bathroom or indeed beach. To the washing away of the day in the spacious marble walk-in rain shower or hi-tech jacuzzi bath with adjustable jets and mood lighting.

Walk downstairs and you'll find La Plaza - an atmospheric square of bars and restaurants including Nobu's very own. This is Marbella's definitive party hotspot for the most eclectic and elite social sets.

La Plaza - The chicest nightlife spot in Marbella

Dinner at the Nobu features the all-star service and signature dishes the world-class restaurant is known for, including the mouthwatering Black Cod with Miso. As Instagram comedian Gstaad Guy comments on the restaurant, 'It's all family' and wherever you are in the world it certainly feels that way at Nobu.

For party animals, Supper Club (Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays) takes the nightclub concept outside. Dine and dance under a canopy of stars surrounded by ancient ruins while being entertained by some of the world's top DJ's and a spectacle of thoroughly modern dance choreographies.

This is the true essence of Marbella, passionate, spontaneous and full of wild dramatic souls.

In the morning follow a wild rabbit down a floral scented walkway to Nobu's breakfast by the beach at restaurant SeaGrill.

Nobu hotel converts will be familiar with the healthy spread of energising super smoothies, fruits, berries and egg-based dishes. Topped up with sun and sea breeze any signs of a hangover will be vanquished by the final sip of the frothiest of oat-milk cappuccinos.

Quaint signposting points to an array of vegan cafes, restaurants and swimming pools within easy walking distance.

Likewise a fresh ocean dip in the Mediterranean sea, a personal training session at the technologically advanced gym or deep relaxation in the Six Senses Spa could be just the ticket.

'Detox/Retox' is very much a tenet of this HNW paradise where Rosé-hued days fade into tequila-tinged nights of electric yet tranquil delight.

For romancing couples seeking deep chill: Nobu's private adult swimming pool, surrounded by a skyline of palm trees and calming moorish architecture, is the ultimate place to sip fresh coconut water while zoning out.

For those who simply can't get enough of the Nobu lifestyle, their new for 2020 wellness sailboat will take you beyond in an exploration of the Mediterranean ocean with views of the Malaga mountains, Gibraltar rock and even Africa's coastline.

Nobu's 53ft, fully-crewed private sailing boat is naturally powered by the fresh breeze and energy of the sea and is the ultimate eco-luxury experience for freedom seekers.

Take a dive off the boat; swim, snorkel, be greeted by dolphins and indulge in some authentic Spanish cuisine while you feast your eyes on an utterly blissful sunset. Nobody does it better...
