MARBELLA - 12 - Girlahead Global

1 week ago | girlahead.com | Mary Gostelow

Wear white at Marbella Club. White from top to toe (some enthusiasts even have white hair – at least the guys do). Girls make it as blonde as possible. White tops, white bottoms, white shoes. The most stunning outfit, actually, was at El Grill one night when a woman, who later one discovered was wearing very short navy shorts, had a white top that looked as though the neck had slipped down the back of the top. Obviously, suitably, understated, and elegant and lovely.

Puente Romano is a way of life. Its 167 rooms are light and bright, white with Mediterranean blue. Suite Y21, on the middle floor of the three-floor Yunquera block, had a copy of Travel+Leisure – or it looked like it but actually it was a personalised cake (thank you Gonzalo Rodriguez – he’s the GM here, a Spanish foodie who has evolved the creativity of his boss, Daniel Shamoon). Talking of food, Puente Romano has no less than 23 eating places, including gluten-free and, of course, Nobu.

This elongated story is turning into What Daniel Did Next. Girlahead has already shared how Daniel Shamoon ‘bisected’ a bigger Marbella property to make a 100-room Nobu Marbella and an adjacent 167-room Puente Ramano.

Daniel Shamoon, one half of the siblings who inherited London-based Bursha Holdings, is an inveterate creative. He and his sister Jennica, for instance, have divided their Marbella properties between them. Jennica, slightly older, oversee the anchor Marbella Club. Daniel’s lot was then-267 room Puente Romano (which actually has a bridge dating back to Roman times). The Shamoons inherited a sizeable portfolio, which has grown, in the Caribbean and in the Spanish countryside.

From one extreme to the other, from tradition of Finca Cortesin, to a highly modern, with-it, place. This is Nobu Marbella, and you’re greeted by Op Art. Look at it. It’s stunning. It’s stunning because you say, what’s going on? Well, the 100-room Nobu Marbella is for people who don’t want a sea view, but they want atmosphere and fun, and they want to feel a little bit naughty. This is the property where people are more likely to stay with those to whom they’re not married.

Dine REI, at Finca Cortesin – there are other restaurants, and private dining venues, but this, says Girlahead, is Japanese with a unique touch. The entire experience has been orchestrated by a local, a young chef, Luis Olarra, who has designed the ceramic plates and the whole look of the 50-seat restaurant, which fascinatingly has Portuguese tiles as wall-art (yes, in a Spanish restaurant that serves Japanese food – remember, this is unique).

Breakfast under a wisteria canopy looking up through the greenery to a clear blue sky. Orange juice that you know was squeezed two minutes ago from fruit plucked less than two hours back. Birds sing in the distance. This is Finca Cortesin, Hotel, Spa, and Golf Resort, above Cesares, in the Malaga area of southern Spain. The Mediterranean’s only three kms down the steeply-inclined road – just too far away for that sensual seaweed aroma that’s so addictive to the growing brigade of fitness fanatics.

And so it continued. BOUTIQUE by Private Luxury Events went on for yet another day, and many wanted it to go on for a lot longer, but one challenge is it’s really, really tiring. Day-long there are the 17-minute meetings when the buyers move around from table to table in a prearranged order to meet up with suppliers, perhaps a new supplier or one that’s not even on the market yet. Say a company that will be wiring money anywhere in the world and providing concierge services. What a good idea.

The meetings at BOUTIQUE by Private Luxury Events were held at Anantara Villa Padierna Palace Benahavia Marbella Resort. When GirlAhead first knew it, it was Ritz-Carlton, and then it became Villa Padierna Palace Hotel. Anantara came in, in 2019, and the brand and its on-site manager have turned it around marvellously. Jorge Manzur, also known as George, is Mexican, laid back and very with it. He’s a sales and marketing guy who knows that networking achieves incredible results.
SYBARITIC SINGLE DISCOVERS LUANG PRABANG

Hastily seeking a last-minute weekend escape, the Sybaritic Single remembers that Aman got a boutique resort in Luang Prabang. With Laos being the only country he hasn’t visited in Indochina, the decision is obvious.
