Marbella’s famed Puente Romano Beach Resort has transformed its vibrant heart, La Plaza, into a summer sanctuary in collaboration with the iconic fashion house Fendi. This first-of-its-kind partnership goes beyond aesthetics, offering a multi-sensory experience that blends Fendi’s timeless elegance with the resort’s renowned culinary scene.
Stepping into Fendi La Plaza, guests are greeted by a complete transformation. The emblematic Pequin stripes, reinterpreted in a summery palette of yellow and beige, adorn everything from textiles to cushions and parasols. This vibrant reimagining reflects Fendi’s heritage and creates a stylish backdrop for the resort’s already impressive culinary offerings.
Fendi La Plaza is a day-to-night epicenter, where the culinary journey begins with a leisurely lunch and continues well into the evening under the soft glow of fairy lights and candles. Guests are spoiled for choice with a selection of restaurants, including the established favorites Nobu Marbella, COYA, Cipriani, Gaia, and the recently acclaimed El Pimpi Marbella.
But the true star of the show is the world’s first Fendi gastronomic experience within a resort. Here, Fendi puts its own luxurious spin on classic dishes. Expect unique takes on the club sandwich with the Fendi Lobster Club, a gourmet Fendi cheeseburger, and truffle rigatoni paired with burrata, grilled peaches, and prosciutto.
The liquid indulgence doesn’t disappoint either. Three new, Fendi-inspired cocktails have been crafted for the occasion. The Fendi Perché No, a sophisticated nod to the fashion house’s latest fragrance, blends notes of leather with refreshing Italian citrus. The Fendi Baguette Paloma offers a playful mix of grapefruit and lime, balanced by the sweetness of white tequila. Finally, the Peekaboo Margarita combines Volcán tequila with a touch of lime zest and a unique helium salt cloud, creating a visually stunning and tastefully complex experience.
Puente Romano Beach Resort itself is no stranger to accolades. This award-winning 5-star haven boasts breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and the North African mountains. The resort encompasses the ultra-luxurious Nobu Hotel Marbella, overlooking the heart of the action at La Plaza. Recognized as a member of Leading Hotels of the World, Puente Romano recently secured the prestigious titles of Best National Resort at the 2023 Condé Nast Traveler Reader’s Choice Awards and Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence 2023. This year, the resort celebrates its 45th anniversary, marking a significant milestone.
