The offer of accommodation in Estepona is incredible, but a boutique hotel gives a special touch to your stay. The attention to detail, the know-how and the closeness of its employees and managers make this type of accommodation the perfect place to enjoy the garden of the Costa del Sol. Can you imagine a hotel that adapts to your needs?

Offering unique experiences to visitors is one of the cornerstones of a boutique hotel. The trend emerged in the 90s, when Steve Rubell (co-founder of Studio 54) used the term to define centrally located hotels with a carefully designed aesthetic and personalised service. These hotels stand out for their location, attention to detail, excellence and a quality gastronomic offer. This is what charming hotels are: small refuges with soul that transform any trip into a personal experience.

Hotel Boutique: relax and unwind in Estepona

If you are thinking of visiting a boutique hotel, but are not sure what sets them apart from other establishments, we tell you more about these gems of the hotel sector in the

Malaga town. Estepona has a wide range of accommodation with top-of-the-range services in which location, treatment and personalisation are the hallmarks.

 

The best location

The Plaza de las Flores is the location of El Pilar de Andalucía, a charming hotel inaugurated in May 2021. With its 36 rooms adapted to your needs, this boutique hotel offers its guests a unique experience. Located in the centre of Estepona and close to La Cala Beach, this hotel offers quality services and attentive staff. From the moment you enter, you feel like you are in a unique place.

Excellence and know-how in a boutique hotel

With four stars, this boutique hotel incorporates restaurants and leisure spaces always in the pursuit of excellence. From the welcome to the check-out, every detail has been thought of so that you don’t have to worry about a thing. Here, hospitality is noticeable in the smallest detail: a smile, a coffee on time, a room that feels like it was made for you. We like to think that you arrive as a guest and leave as part of the house.

 

Attention to detail: personalised services

Details make the difference and when we travel for leisure or business we want to have the best services. In this sense, a boutique hotel allows you to personalise services to adapt them to the needs of each visitor. The number of rooms, as well as the professionalism of its teams, is the best guarantee for enjoying a family getaway, a corporate event or a trip with friends. Here you are not a number, you are a guest we want to get to know. With just a few rooms and a team that really listens to you, we know that every trip is different. That’s why we tailor our services to you, not the other way around.

 

The charm of a boutique hotel: proximity and privacy.

A charming hotel with only 36 rooms offers a close and personalised service. The trust between staff and guests is reflected in repeat bookings every year for family celebrations, holidays and corporate events. There is no rush here. Just calm, friendly service and spaces that invite you to slow down and enjoy yourself at home. That’s why so many of our guests come back year after year.

 

Estepona: the garden of the Costa del Sol

The town of Estepona stands out for its white streets full of flowers. One of the jewels of the Western Costa del Sol where the pleasant climate and the charm of the white villages are combined with more than 21 kilometres of beach and the proximity of the mountains. An ideal place to locate a hotel in keeping with its relaxed atmosphere.

 

A boutique hotel with beach and mountains

El Pilar de Andalucía is located in the heart of Estepona, a charming hotel that allows its guests to enjoy the nearby Playa de la Cala. A day at the beach or a hike in the mountains? Here you don’t have to choose, you have it all. Just 8 minutes walk from the Plaza de las Flores, the sea offers its breeze and fine sand to visitors. Likewise, just 35 minutes away by car is the Natural Park of Los Reales de Sierra Bermeja which extends over 1,234 hectares. The hiking routes, as well as other activities associated with the mountains such as trekking or canyoning take centre stage.

 

Experiences for all ages

This privileged location makes it possible to organise experiences for all ages. The marina offers boat hire with or without a skipper, as well as water sports. As we have seen, the proximity of the mountains is an invitation to adventure. Not forgetting urban routes, museums and activities such as go-karting and paintball. An offer crowned by the exquisite selection of gastronomy.

 

Gastronomy in a boutique hotel

One of the most important details in an exclusive establishment is the gastronomic selection. The variety, quality and care of the restaurants and rooftops allow you to enjoy a complete experience adapted to all needs. Children’s menus, vegan options, local and traditional flavours or international cuisine. Each restaurant is a delicious excuse to stay an extra day.

Signature accommodation: The flavours of Makako

Gastronomy is an added value when we talk about a boutique hotel. In this sense, El Pilar de Andalucía includes a varied offer in its facilities. Makako condenses the best of the flavours of Southeast Asia, marinating its menu with the best selection of wines and cavas. Sushi, rice dishes and noodles that you can enjoy on the top floor with wonderful views of Estepona. The nikei cuisine and the flavours of Korea, Thailand, Japan or China articulate an avant-garde and daring menu. Ideal for lovers of international cuisine.

 

Casafina: Andalusian cuisine in a boutique hotel

Casafina is the perfect place to enjoy Andalusian cuisine in a boutique hotel. Traditional salmorejo, almadraba tuna tartar or chickpea and vegetable fritters with aioli await you in a cosy restaurant that includes a children’s menu. A local experience that is nourished by the proximity of the Serranía de Ronda with its wonderful selection of wines or La Axarquía in Malaga, producer of vegetables and tropical fruits. The ideal place to enjoy with the family, located at number 12, Plaza de las Flores. The traditional flavours, prepared with care. From the Malaga garden to the plate, Casafina is that food that reminds you of home, but with a touch of elegance.

 

Don Rudolfo: wines marinated with traditional cuisine

Bodega Don Rudolfo is the space dedicated to traditional cuisine. With a relaxed atmosphere and attached to the wine culture, this restaurant offers a selection of the best national and international wines. Located in Calle Carlos Herrera, 1, in its menu you can find croquettes, the best Iberian ham or the traditional roasted peppers from La Axarquía. The selection does not stop there, as Bodega Don Rudolfo incorporates in its menu flavours from Galicia or vegan dishes. A place to toast calmly. Classic tapas, good wine and that relaxed atmosphere where the after-dinner conversations go on without looking at the clock.

 

Bermejas Views: the rooftop of the Plaza de las Flores

There is nothing better than ending the day enjoying the wonderful views from the central Plaza de las Flores in Estepona. Bermejas Views is the ideal place to enjoy the sunset with a drink in hand from our rooftop. Enjoying the sea breeze and the charm of a town like Estepona, where you can relax, play sports, rest or live unique experiences.
