Sunbed prices in Marbella, 2026

Ocean Club, Puerto Banús, tops the index at €300. La Sala by the Sea, Puerto Banús, is the cheapest paid sunbed counted, at €40.

Ocean Club · Puerto Banús€300
No plain sunbed is sold: the cheapest bed package (Small Round, Frontline Square or 3rd Line Sun Lounge) seats up to three, includes one bottle of Perrier Jouët, and carries no extra minimum spend on a weekday. €300 is the whole weekday cost of putting two people on a bed here: one package, not two. The ladder above it runs €600 for a mid-tier deck and €1,100 for a VIP Deck, with a further €500 to €1,000 minimum spend on weekends and event days.
Playa Padre · Marbella centre (El Cable)€240
Two standard single beds at €120 each, off the club's own rate card. Each €120 is a €50 bed plus a €70 minimum spend, so both halves double for two people: €100 of bed and €140 that must be eaten and drunk. The VIP bed, capped at two people and bundling a bottle of Moët and a fruit tray, is a separate product at €650.
Amàre Beach · Golden Mile€139
Two adults-only day passes at €69.50 each. The hotel's own page says "from", so this is a floor and not a ceiling. A pass includes a pool or beach bed, and half its value comes back as food-and-drink credit rather than being charged on top, which makes this the one venue in the index whose minimum spend is money you get back.
Moosa Bay · Artola (Marbella East)€80
Two sunbeds at €40 each, the July and August rate on the venue's own reservations page. The same page prices the rest of the year lower: €30 in February and March, €35 from April to June, and €35 again from September.
Nikki Beach · Elviria (Marbella East)€60
via SevenRooms
Two single beach loungers at €30 each, no minimum spend. They are first come, first served: Nikki Beach takes no reservation for them and advises arriving at noon when the beach club opens. The elevated terrace is a dearer product on the same page, €60 a lounger Monday to Thursday and €80 Friday to Sunday, and is over-18s only. Nikki Beach publishes nothing on nikkibeach.com; these are the rates on the booking platform it sells through, which we count as the venue's own and label as such.
Bono Beach · El Rosario (Marbella East)€60
via PremiumGuest
Two single beds at €30 each, read on Wednesday 12 August 2026, towel and a half-litre of water included per bed. A front-line single is €35 and a three-person Bali bed €200. The platform adds a 4% booking fee on top, so €30 rings up as €31.20. Bono publishes nothing on its own domain; these are the rates on the booking platform embedded in its bed-booking page, which we count as the venue's own and label as such.
La Sala by the Sea · Puerto Banús€40
Two Chill Out Single Beach Beds at €20 each, the Monday to Wednesday rate on the club's own 2026 bed menu (€30 each Thursday to Sunday). No minimum spend; towels are €10 extra each. Its dearer products are priced separately on the same menu: a single pool sunbed is €65, a front-row deluxe bed €25 Monday to Wednesday and €35 Thursday to Sunday, a four-person beach bed €70, and the eight-person Cabana €350 Monday to Wednesday, rising to €800 Thursday to Sunday with €350 of that returned as credit.
Public beach · All of them€0
Towel not included.

The sun remains free at time of writing.

How are these prices checked?

Every priced venue in the index links to a rate the venue publishes on its own website, dated the day it was read.
