Hertz in Marbella
Marbella may be one of the best known and most glamorous destinations in Spain but it is also a place of great contrasts. While the seafront is lined with modern hotels and fancy restaurants, head away from the sea and you will find the old town with many traditional shops along its cobbled streets and alleyways. Marbella also has a fantastic natural setting with the Sierra Blanca mountains behind it and the glittering Mediterranean Sea in front. And, if you are renting a car in Marbella, make sure to make time to visit Puerto Ban's, the extra glitzy and exclusive marina and resort just a little way down the coast.
A fantastic place to relax and enjoy a drink is in the Plaza de los Naranjos in the heart of the old town. You will be shaded by tropical plants and palms, as well as the many orange trees that give the square its name. Then, for a little culture, head for the Museo Ralli where you will find a fantastic private art collection that makes the most of the area's brilliant light to display works by artists including Salvador Dali and Henry Moore. Rent a car in Marbella and you will also find it is the place in Andalucia for designer shopping - you will find many of the biggest names here along Avenida Ricardo Soriano.
