Sierra Blanca Resort Art of Healing

I had the pleasure of spending a long weekend at this exceptional boutique hotel, and it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The atmosphere is refined yet incredibly comfortable, offering that rare personal touch that makes a place feel like home. A huge thank you to Ruben and Lev, who went above and beyond throughout my stay. Their attention to detail, accommodating nature, and thoughtful gestures made all the difference. Whether it was local recommendations, little comforts, or just friendly conversation, they made me feel truly looked after. The hotel itself is beautifully designed and immaculately kept, with a calm and intimate vibe that’s hard to find. I’m already looking forward to returning, this place is a gem. Highly recommended.

Location ideal for Starlite Marbella Occidental event site. 10 minute walk (uphill). Off street secure parking. Clean modern building. Very few staff, you have to go look for them. No signage as to what is where or map. No "What to do in an emergency" in your room. No restaurant, no coffee in your room. As its on an urbanisation, no off site bar or restaurant local. Just somewhere to sleep if you're not into gymnastics or "wellness".

Friendly looking Rooms but mine was equipped with a bone breaking hard mattress offering no support at all, hence not very good sleep. Nice grounds, basic but does the job. Super friendly service at the bar from the 2 young guys and indian girl. Late afternoon /early evening I ordered a tiramisu to be brought to my room. I had to try it as it was priced at 15 Euros, so it had to be good. No tiramisu came, instead I got a cheese cake. When pointing out the delivery was wrong I was told to 'try it'. Which I did and I didn't like it. Was told they would take it off the bill, only the next day to have to discuss it with the receptionist (girl I did not meet before with chest tattoo) who showed no sign of willingness to reduce it from the bill. Didn't want to discuss it so I paid and left. Make sure to get confirmation right away if anything here is at odds. I had to stay one more day in Marbella and asked for an offer for the extension. Was told the price would be €781, so I declined and the clerk at the time told me to look for a deal online. Next day the 'system' had me registered staying an extra night 🙄. Not for €781 though, but €300. Would stay again for €200.
