Mistral Beach

Hammocks, paella and Sunday music

Been there, loved it — our own hearts on the map.

Mistral sits on Playa del Rodeo with canvas hammocks strung between the posts and food and drink carried out to them. Grilled seafood, paella, pasta, and fruit-heavy cocktails that arrive in glasses far too large.

On Sundays there is live music as the sun goes down, which is the nicest way to end a beach day in Marbella without having to drive anywhere.

Massages and water sports can be booked on the sand.
