Apartamento IMPERIO 3 – Puerto deportivo Playa Marbella Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Apartamento IMPERIO 3 – Puerto deportivo Playa Marbella honestly feels like you’ve stumbled onto something special that most tourists completely miss. This four-star apartment sits right in the heart of Marbella‘s marina district, and I mean literally — you’re steps away from the bobbing yachts and that whole glamorous Costa del Sol scene. The building itself has this clean, modern Mediterranean vibe that doesn’t try too hard, which I actually appreciate after seeing so many overdone properties along this coast.

Location That Actually Matters

You know what’s rare? Finding a place where the location score of 9.8 actually makes sense when you’re standing there. The marina spreads out right in front of you, and honestly, watching the sunset from this spot never gets old — I’ve seen guests just standing on their balconies every evening like clockwork. Couples absolutely love it here (they rate it a perfect 10, which tells you something), and I get why. You can walk to Puerto Banús in about fifteen minutes along the waterfront, or head into Marbella’s old town just as easily. The beach access is what really sold me though — you’re not fighting crowds to get to decent sand and clear water.

The Space Itself

The room setup works really well for people who want more than just a hotel box. You’ve got a proper kitchen that’s actually functional — not one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes that can barely handle making coffee. The living area flows nicely into the bedroom space, and there’s enough storage that you won’t be living out of your suitcase the whole time. The balcony is where you’ll probably spend most of your time though, especially in the evenings when the marina lights start reflecting off the water.

Practical Stuff That Matters

Here’s something that’ll save you headaches — the free parking is actually free and actually available, which is basically a miracle in this part of Marbella. I’ve stayed at places here where parking costs more per night than some people’s entire accommodation budget. The WiFi works properly (tested it for work calls), and the air conditioning keeps up with those brutal August afternoons. The building’s pretty quiet too, even though you’re right in the middle of everything — good soundproofing, I guess.

Why Guests Keep Coming Back

That 9.2 rating isn’t just numbers — it’s because this place gets the balance right between location and value. You’re paying for the marina views and that unbeatable spot, but you’re not getting gouged like you would at some of the flashier hotels nearby. The fact that couples consistently rate it so highly tells you it’s got that romantic factor without being cheesy about it. Plus, having your own space with a kitchen means you can grab fresh seafood from the market and actually enjoy it properly, rather than being stuck with hotel dining every night.

  • Lisa from United Kingdom (10/10)

    The appartment was in a prime location close to the harbour and just a 5 minute walk to the old town. It was equipped with all your needs hairdryer, straighteners shower gel, shampoo etc. The electric blinds and massage bed were added bonuses! Lovely large tv with Netflix and Prime. Great view from the balcony. Added special touches included fresh fruit, pasta, eggs, milk, bread wine on arrival plus other little treats which was something you don’t usually get with renting appartments which was lovely.

  • Kathryn from United Kingdom (10/10)

    The property is ideally located by the port in Marbella. It is central to everything and there is a lovely walk along the seafront promenade to Puerto Banus. The beaches and eateries are all very close by.
    The apartment is modern and very comfortable. It is very well stocked with all amenities you may need for a relaxing stay, including a large TV with Netflix, good WIFI, beach towels and umbrella and a fruit bowl/ food package provided.
