<\/a><\/p>\n For the last 8 years myself and my friends have been holidaying for a week in Marbella each summer. A lot of people who havent been there before will always ask me what I love the most about the lively spot and so I am about to go through my reasons for venturing back time and time again with you all.<\/p>\n Some people will argue that we should really expand on our experiences and venture to new\u00a0destinations, but truth be told I feel like Marbella is like a second home for me. I always know people working out there, I know the venues inside out and you are always guaranteed to meet some Irish people out there which makes it one big family on holiday.<\/p>\n Although I love trying out new places, there is something about feeling like you know people when you head to a location. Its a trust feeling, a comfortable feeling. I really dislike not knowing anyone or my\u00a0surroundings. Do you ever find that you are only get used to a place when you go away and then before you know it you’re back on the plane home? Well with Marbella – we always arrive with a plan, clubs and beach bars booked, we know where we are going, we know people out there, whats ahead and in turn we can totally\u00a0unwind.<\/p>\n It’s a real holiday for me. I will have lots of years ahead of me with kids, doing family holidays (please god) – but until then, I want to make the most of my summers and really let my hair down partying with my pals.<\/p>\n If you’re wondering Marbella is a family spot too for sure – we always see lots of young families out there, gorgeous restaurants, beaches and so on but for me, we only end up doing the party things.<\/p>\n So my reasons for returning time and time again…. here they are.<\/p>\n 1. The\u00a0Weather<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Every year I have gone to Marbella we have always had gorgeous weather. Granted there are a few over cast days here and there at times, but over all the weather is amazing. Sun most days all day and a lovely beach breeze too so it’s never too OTT. The best months to head out are May\/June\/July & August.<\/p>\n September is good too – but one year we went in September and it rained the full week. :-\/<\/p>\n 2. The\u00a0Style<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n This is a huge factor for me. Anyone else love people-watching and when I say people -watching I mean in the style stakes? Yep – I do too! People in Marbella are one of the most stylish dressers I’ve seen. I always come home with some amazing style inspo ideas. You could be looking at women in their 20’s one minute idolising their style and the next a woman in her 40’s. The style out there is second to none and very mixed in the age, which is great too. With a strip of designer shops galore – Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Dior, Gucci and so on –\u00a0it’s easy to be in awe of it all.<\/p>\n Day or night the girls are glam and I love it.<\/p>\n 3. The Food<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Marbella port has some amazing restaurants. Our favourite indian in the world ‘Khans<\/a>‘ is based there on the port and wow. Amazing. Some other restaurants on the port we love are Los Bandidos<\/a>, if you are a fish eater or you love a great steak you have to check out Los Bandidos. A little more on the pricey side, but so amazing and defo worth a try.<\/p>\n For a more budget friendly option and you are are looking for some unreal pizza or wings – you have to check out\u00a0Picasso’s<\/a>, – YUM and the cocktails amazing. On that note, if you are a big cocktail drinker, you have to try Astral<\/a> at the end of the port – they have the best cocktails I’ve ever tasted.<\/p>\n
