What our students said about Marbella
Marbella is not the best place to learn Spanish. Many foreigners live in Marbella, so you are often addressed in English in shops. Marbella has beautiful beaches, a nice old center and a lively entertainment center around the harbor.
Marbella has nothing to do with the school. What does the city have to do with it? The city is wonderful, the school is not.
I don't really like Marbella as a city. I chose this place because I know the local animal shelter and wanted to visit it.
Beautiful town, clean, but be careful, delicious food is everywhere, bakeries, ice cream and tapas bars everywhere.
Marbella has a very nice location and many restaurants and cafés, but has rather little to offer culturally.
Have been there several times and think the beach promenade is beautiful.
Wonderful city! Lots of activities to do and the people are super nice.
Very touristy and nightlife geared toward younger revellers.
An exciting city. There is always something new to explore
I have known Marbella for many, many years
