Relaxing In Marbella-Tim
... to be an overdeveloped tourist resort town and it IS very developed but in a mostly tasteful way and the old town in really very charming. So we were pleasantly suprised. Just a 20 min bus ride from the campsiteinto the centre of Marbella. Had a lovely paella in a beachfront restaurant one night after walking along the boardwalk.
