Gran Melia Don Pepe

Previous slide Next slide

Famous for its postcard Mediterranean views, enticing swimming pools and boundless onsite facilities, Gran Melia Don Pepe is one of Marbella’s most reliable luxury beach resorts.

Gran Melia Don Pepe certainly offers everything you would want from a sprawling Costa del Sol resort of its type, though maybe a little bit more on top! Among the lagoon-style swimming pools and numerous restaurants catering for all tastes, you will also find relaxing outdoor gazebos (perfect for al fresco massage treatments), exclusive poolside lounge areas and even an oyster bar, all features which are complemented no end by the ever-present sea vistas, to be found from almost every corner of the resort and grounds.

Room Types

All rooms

With a bewilderingly extensive selection of guestrooms, family rooms and suites, Gran Melia Don Pepe has an accommodation option for every couple or group, desired level of luxury and budget. The choice of view from each changes between the surrounding mountainside, resort grounds and gardens or the coast, with furnished balconies ready and waiting for whichever vista you choose to enjoy. Twin bathrooms, separate lounge areas and larger terraces are available in certain room categories, with the top options offering their own private plunge pool and solarium, if looking to really push the boat out. Cooling marble floor tiles, neutral colours and white linens all provide a safe sanctuary from the Marbella heat, while mod-cons such as Wi-Fi and satellite TV come as a given, no matter which of the many room options you go for.

Hotel Location

About Gran Melia Don Pepe

The modern guestrooms of Gran Melia Don Pepe come with pleasant touches such as mini Roman-style columns and furnished balconies, which look out across either the mountains, hotel gardens or Mediterranean ocean. With tennis courts, an extensive spa of multiple treatment rooms, hammams, an indoor swimming pool and more, as well as direct access to Don Pepe Beach, there’s more than enough to keep guests of all ages both entertained and relaxed during the day. Night-times here are no different, with al fresco dining, a whisky and separate champagne bar, T-bone grill and many other dining or lounge options to choose from, picking between them is usually the hardest part of the evening! Though this resort is family-friendly and operates a fantastic kids club, there are segregated adults-only areas, pools and of course the late-night watering holes, meaning that romantic getaways or relaxing breaks are on the cards. Minutes from Paco Cantos Park and Marbella Old Town, the hotel’s location is also a big plus if looking to venture into the surrounding region.
