FAQ

Before you write.

Is BV House a boutique hotel in Marbella?

In the Marbella area, yes — a small boutique hotel and private members' club on the New Golden Mile, minutes from Marbella on the Costa del Sol. With nine rooms and suites, adults only, it is intimate rather than grand — an exclusive hotel held to the scale of a private house rather than a resort.

How many rooms does BV House have?

Nine. BV House has nine rooms and suites — small by design, so the house stays quiet and the staff learn your name. It is closer in feel to a private members' club with bedrooms than to a large hotel.

Is BV House members only, or can guests stay?

Both. The bedrooms are open to hotel guests — you can book a room without being a member, and share the pool, the spa and the long breakfast table. The members' club that wraps around the hotel is separate, entered by invitation or by written application.

Is BV House adults only?

Yes — it is an adults-only boutique hotel, quiet on purpose and grown-up throughout. It suits couples and solo travellers looking for calm rather than families.

Where exactly is BV House?

BV House is at Calle Támesis 16, 29688 Estepona, on the New Golden Mile — the coastal strip between Marbella and Estepona. It is roughly 15 minutes by car from Marbella centre, 10 minutes from Puerto Banús, 7 minutes from Estepona town and 40 to 45 minutes from Málaga airport. See the location →

How do I become a member — is it hard to get in?

Membership is by invitation, or by letter — a written application, read carefully and answered always. It is meant to be hard to come by; the house stays small on purpose. If you would like to be considered, you write to us, and we reply.

Does BV House have a pool, spa and restaurant?

Yes to all three. There is a heated, mosaic-tiled pool open year-round, a spa with a cedar sauna and cold plunge, a gym, and a members' dining room with a bar and a wine room.

Can I work from BV House during the day?

Yes — that is half the point. Members work from the garden, the workpods, or a quiet corner between a morning class and lunch. The Wi-Fi is fast, calls are easy to take outside, and nobody minds a laptop before the light goes soft.

Is lunch open every day?

The kitchen serves lunch through the week for members and hotel guests — a short, healthy menu and a daily menú del día. Long lunches are rather the house speciality.

Can I come alone?

Please do. The house is built so you can meet people, or meet no one at all — the long table when you want company, a quiet corner when you don't. Many members' favourite days here are solo ones.

Is BV House good for a romantic stay?

Very. Adults only, nine intimate suites, a spa, a quiet garden and long unhurried dinners make BV House ideal for a romantic stay. It is designed for couples who would rather be inside the house than out in the town.

Is BV House new?

Yes. BV House opened in 2026 — one of the newest boutique hotels between Marbella and Estepona, and unusual in also being a private members' club.

Is BV House near the beach?

Yes. The New Golden Mile is a coastal strip, so the beach is only a few minutes away, along with the beach clubs, golf and restaurants of the coast between Marbella and Estepona.

Is BV House a hidden gem — how exclusive is it?

It is meant to be. With nine rooms, an adults-only door and membership by invitation, BV House is among the more exclusive small hotels on this coast — a quiet, hidden-gem address on the New Golden Mile rather than a name on the main strip.

What is there to do at BV House?

Train, lunch, swim — and stay the night. Beyond the rooms there is the heated pool, the spa, and a wellness programme of yoga, Pilates and a run club down to the sea — five places a class. Supper clubs, tastings and long lunches fill the calendar for members and hotel guests.
