Straight to the door
No queues, no sharing, no meter. Straight to your hotel or villa.
Puerto Banús is not a town of its own. It is a marina inside the municipality of Marbella, in the district of Nueva Andalucía, and that is worth clearing up before you book: the address you give will normally be a quay, a block or an urbanisation rather than the port itself.
The marina opened in 1970 and the neighbourhood grew around it. The yachts and the expensive cars are real, but they fill a few hundred metres of quayside; one street back, Banús is flats above shops, supermarkets and people walking down to the beach.
Passengers come for all sorts of reasons: a rented apartment for a fortnight, golf in the valley behind the port, a weekend away, a house lived in all year. They all meet the same thing at the end of the journey: the last couple of hundred metres are the awkward part.
Where we drop you off
- The marina and its quays
- Addresses inside the port go by quay: Muelle Ribera, Muelle Benabolá, the Muelle de Honor. It is compact and largely pedestrian, so a car reaches its edge, not your door.
- Playa de Levante
- The beach just east of the breakwater, with a promenade and apartment blocks behind it. Cars come in from the road at the back; the promenade is for walking.
- Nueva Andalucía and La Campana
- The neighbourhood behind the port: ordinary streets with room to stop, flats and townhouses, the bullring and the Saturday market. Here the car reaches the entrance.
- The Golf Valley
- Inland from Nueva Andalucía, the ground around the Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha courses. Most of the urbanisations are gated, so their name matters more than the street.
- Sierra Blanca and the Golden Mile
- Towards Marbella, the hillside above the coast road holds gated communities, Sierra Blanca among them: steep private roads, a security post at the entrance, and satnav that stops at the gate.
- The Istán road
- The A-7176 turns inland shortly after the port and climbs towards the La Concepción reservoir and the village of Istán. A good road, but unlit and full of bends at night.
Arriving at Málaga Airport
Málaga works with Terminals 2 and 3, joined together, but baggage reclaim and the way out are in the T3 arrivals hall on the ground floor. Wherever the aircraft parks, everybody comes out through the same doors.
From there the road west follows the coast, and there are two of them. The A-7 is free, stays near the sea and charges you instead in roundabouts, traffic lights and town streets. The AP-7 is a toll motorway slightly inland, with toll points at Calahonda and San Pedro de Alcántara, and it is the one that saves time in July and August. The driver picks according to the traffic; the price you fixed when booking does not change.
The last stretch is the part to plan for. In high season the heart of the marina is pedestrian for most of the day and only authorised vehicles go in: the car stops at one of the access points and you walk the final metres with the bags.
Good to know
In summer, leave earlier
From late June to early September the coast road clogs up in the evening and the streets around the port follow. For the flight home, set off with more margin than the journey suggests.
Child seats go on the booking
The law requires them and the driver brings them; they are not something to sort out at the arrivals door. Add them when you book, with the children's ages.
Golf clubs take up room
A bag of clubs will not share a saloon boot with the suitcases. Four players with equipment usually means a minivan, so say so when you book.
Landing in the early hours
Take your phone off flight mode before you leave the terminal: the driver sends word when setting off, and an unreachable phone is the commonest reason people miss each other.
Give the building, not the street
Inside the port an exact street address barely exists; everything goes by quay and block. Tell us the quay, the building or the urbanisation and, if it is gated, which entrance.
Questions people ask
How long does the Puerto Banús to Málaga Airport transfer take?
Around 50 minutes in normal traffic. In July and August, or on a Friday evening, allow a little more.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight number, so your driver adjusts the pick-up time and waits for you. A delayed flight costs you nothing extra.
Where do I meet my driver?
In the arrivals hall, once you are through. Your driver holds a sign with your name, and we also email you their phone number.
Is the price per person or per car?
Per car. The price you see covers the whole vehicle, your luggage and any tolls.
Can I cancel?
Yes, free of charge up to 24 hours before pick-up. The full amount goes back to the same card.
Do you have child seats?
Yes. Add them when you book and we assign a driver who carries them, at no extra cost.
Is Puerto Banús a separate town from Marbella?
No. It is the marina and the neighbourhood around it, inside the municipality of Marbella and within Nueva Andalucía. It is listed on its own because that is how people search for it, but the address is a Marbella one.
Can the car reach our apartment inside the port?
Sometimes, and hardly ever in August, when the centre of the marina is pedestrian for most of the day and only authorised vehicles pass. The usual arrangement is a stop at an access point and a short walk in with the bags.
What address should I give if I am staying in the marina?
The quay and the block, plus the name of the building. Street numbers in the port are unreliable and satnav often lands on the wrong side of the water. For a holiday let, copy the owner's address word for word.
We are in the Golf Valley. Does that count as Puerto Banús?
In practice, yes: the valley sits directly behind Nueva Andalucía. Give us the urbanisation and the entrance, because many are gated and the gatehouse is nowhere near where the postal address points.
