Marbella Club

Marbella, Spain

Marbella Club

The Marbella Club began as an Andalusian seaside club, and its first director, Count Rudi von Schönburg, lent his name to Rudi’s bar, with its seashell-inlaid fireplace. The garden, filled with agapanthus, jasmine and bougainvillea, slopes down to the beach and provides produce for the hotel; Nelson Gallo picks the citrus fruits for his cordials there, and at La Bodega, Ángel González places vine roots and biodynamic tools on the table before opening the bottles. An in-house exhibition, ‘Marbella Club Days’, preserves the memory of the place.
