Resurrected by the Hyatt group, the legendary Andalusian address stands out as one of the unmissable hotel gems in the Malaga region.

A cult Andalusian address
Need a shot of Vitamin D without having to take a transatlantic flight?
Head for La Zambra Resort GL, an elegant and sunny 5-star resort nestled between Malaga and Marbella.
Located on the site of the legendary Byblos Andaluz, which has seen the Rolling Stones, Lady Di and Julio Iglesias and many other crowned heads parade through the streets, the hotel, completely redesigned by the Hyatt group and renamed in homage to the local flamenco culture, has easily established itself as one of the hotel HQs on the Costa del Sol.
Located in Mijas, just 35 kilometres from Malaga, this elegant resort with 196 rooms and suites, all in white lime and zellige fountains, celebrates the timeless beauty of Arab-Andalusian architecture, combined with a contemporary and refined interior design.
A nod to its glorious past which made it a legendary address in the 80s, the place nevertheless retains its blue towers, a Mediterranean detail if ever there was one.
Far from only appealing to golf enthusiasts on a pilgrimage to Mijas, the resort is equally suited to a romantic getaway or a family getaway.
Open all year round due to very mild local temperatures even out of season, the Zambra is the ideal base for the All Saints' Day holidays; tennis and paddle lessons, gym with high-tech equipment from the Technogym brand, kids club accessible free of charge: the hotel offers a plethora of activities suitable for everyone, supervised by expert staff with infectious smiles.

An unparalleled gastronomic and wellness offering
The other strong point of the Zambra? Its four restaurants, which allow you to vary the pleasures.
In addition to its gargantuan breakfast, which is adapted to the slightest dietary restrictions, the hotel brilliantly combines flavours and culinary influences, to the point that residents do not feel the need to venture outside its walls.
La Bartola draws inspiration from the vibrant energy of Iberian chiringuitos and offers hand-picked tapas and cocktails, while the Picador restaurant skilfully revisits traditional Andalusian recipes.
The Bamboleo restaurant located next to the majestic swimming pool offers healthy options and quick meals to enjoy throughout the day, while the Palmito restaurant showcases classics from the Spanish gastronomic repertoire, from croquetas to jamon Iberico and fried calamari, Andalusian style.
A few guilty pleasures that we eliminate during a swim in one of the pools of the Mood Spa, a 2000 square meter space entirely dedicated to well-being, which is one of the largest spas on the Costa del Sol.
Yoga classes, balneotherapy courses, expert treatments inspired by Tibetan and Ayurvedic protocols: this soothing sanctuary is a true destination in itself, offering daily packages that look like mini-retreats.
