Best bookstores in Marbella: find options near you

Very good very helpful very nice lady

Excellent service and quick assistance!

excellent little shop that will print from an email or whatsapp message. quick service and super well located just across from the police

The most optimal place I’ve ever seen, 4 min for a ID photo + some A4 printing, the best price too.

It was a bit shabby. I went there to buy wrapping paper but they had the same quality as found in the Chinese shops.

Quick and helpful service

Small local shop that has all you might need for your children’s school. Service a bit slow but good prices and location.

a stylish and well‑organized department store near the marina. It offers a wide selection of fashion, luxury brands, cosmetics and accessories. Global blue for tax refund is also avalanche in this store.

Always a delightful time shopping. So many beautiful items to shop for. Lunch was awesome

El Corte Inglés Puerto Banús is truly one of the best shopping destinations on the Costa del Sol. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a clean, modern, and well-organized space that makes browsing a pleasure. The store offers an incredible variety of products, from high-end fashion brands to everyday essentials, all under one roof. What really stands out is the quality of service. The staff are professional, attentive, and always willing to help without being intrusive. Whether you’re looking for something specific or just exploring, they make the experience smooth and enjoyable. The fashion section is particularly impressive, featuring a wide selection of designer labels as well as more affordable options, catering to all tastes and budgets. Another highlight is the gourmet food hall, which is a must-visit. The selection of fresh products, international delicacies, and ready-to-eat meals is outstanding. It’s perfect whether you want to grab a quick bite or pick up something special. The location in Puerto Banús is ideal, adding to the overall luxury feel of the experience. Everything is maintained to a very high standard, from cleanliness to layout and presentation. Overall, it’s a premium shopping experience that consistently delivers quality, variety, and excellent service. Absolutely deserving of 5 stars.

I was in the children’s department of Ralph Lauren last night where I bought a yellow Ralph Lauren jumper for my teenage daughter at about 19.10 hours last night. We met a seriously unpleasant woman with shoulder length brown hair. I don’t speak Spanish but this lady was being very unpleasant. At one stage I thought she was going to hit my daughter. We made our purchase with another Spanish lady with blonde hair who was pleasant. Could management please seek out this woman as this behaviour is completely unacceptable and very unusual behaviour for this shop. You need to investigate this further.

Huge with really great options for everything you need. Great department store with amazing fashion designer choices and also a large supermercado with great quality of products for anything you need

Fantastic place to visit, underground car parking available at cost. Plenty of different units to visit from sportswear to wine. Mostly top end prices but all quality items. Food places as well from tapas to pasta. Well worth a visit but be prepared to pay the price

Was ignored for 25 minutes in the champagne bar. Menu brought after 10 minutes but no one came back to take our order. Don’t waste your time here.

Visited this store recently and was impressed by how clean, modern, and well presented everything was. There’s a great selection of home furnishings, décor, and household items, and the supermarket section is particularly well stocked with plenty of premium products. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that I was specifically looking for Hot Wheels, and unfortunately there wasn’t a toy section or any Hot Wheels available. If you’re visiting for homeware or groceries, it’s definitely worth a stop, but toy collectors may want to look elsewhere. Overall, a pleasant shopping experience with a great range of quality products and a nice atmosphere.

Please watch out on extra charges and fish weight manipulation by the staff this week! Foreigners, like myself, are treated without respect and with extreme hatred of the staff there.

This grocery store is immaculate. It is pricy but they do have good sales and others brands that are cheaper. I was truly in heaven when I stepped in here. If you’re a wine lover or collector, the wine selection is incredible and not to be missed. The tinned fish selection, olive oil and cheese section is outstanding as well. They have a section dedicated to iberico ham. This grocery store is a food lovers dream. It gives Whole Foods a run for its money.

This supermarket (floor -1) is BY FAR the best grocery shopping Marbella has to offer. Everything is new. Fresh Fish, Butcher and Cheese counter. Just fabulous! Be aware that the ‘Club del Gourmet’ has now moved to the ground floor, sharing space with their decoration department. There is also a Starbucks on this floor if that’s your thing. I won’t do my grocery shopping anywhere else. Plenty of Parking on 2 decks below the premises. While you shop get your car detailed at -2.

Shop with furniture for appartement house bathroom kitchen….even stuff for the garden. Nice pricy things. In the basement was the food departement.

“El Corte Inglés Supermercado in Marbella is a real find for New Year’s shopping! There is an amazing selection of New Year’s toys and gorgeous Christmas trees. The decoration of the festive area is amazing – you feel like you are immediately immersed in the holiday atmosphere. I am especially pleased that the store is open on Saturdays, very convenient for those who plan to shop on the weekend. For New Year’s, you can find really stylish home decorations here. A nice place, I recommend everyone to stop by!”

The staff here is fantastic. Though I have limited Spanish, thanks Google Translate, we were able to find almost everything on our list. The store is different than what we are use to, but it had a beautiful selection of food. Definitely a high end store. I was surprised to have to pay for parking but otherwise a great experience.

Nice for drinks, but totally avoid the food. Cheap and awfull. Never again

Almost none of the staff speak English. Atmosphere was ok. I ordered multiple starters which were delicious however the chinese wok was so terrible I quite literally got sick from it. Definitely don’t order the wok.

We came back after a year and we are not disappointed! Great food, great service, good prices! My favourite restaurant/bar in Marbella!!!

Please avoid, we found the waitress extremely rude. We stayed for one drink paid with a €10 note and received our €6 euro change all in 10cents dumped on our table. We felt unwelcome from the moment we arrived which is not something we have experienced anywhere else.

Food is all right, but nothing great compared to other restaurants in the area. This is more like a drink bar with affordable prices where you can meet local people especially young people who drinks before going to clubs

Cocktails are absolute rubbish. Premixed. Rest : just cafe

Too much oil and Mayo. In ceaser chicken was fried 😒 untasty. Disappointed. I can’t recommend this place

Great place to shop for a good price

Ale hop 2nd store in Marbella. Now on Ricardo Soriano in the center of Marbella’s high street. You can’t miss the big cows on the roof or the big white facade of the building as you walk along. Very close to the Alameda and just before you get to mango in between both your find a new Ale hop shop. A couple of flows to browse all the crazy items that they’ve got and useful gadgets that you can use for every day use. The staff are always very helpful and welcoming and always there to give you guidance on what you need it’s a really great place to shop for small presents for people just to have a little bit of fun.

My daughter’s favorite place 😍, nice and funky stuff and affordable

Good if you are looking for overpriced Temu stuff.

Fun filled with unusual things, great place to find things that will illicit a “wherever did you find this”

Was expecting beer- there is no beer.

Lots of funny stuff, you end buying things you don’t really need

A huge selection of items of every kind. Check the prices. While some items are good value, others are definitely not. Some cheaply made very poor quality electrical items are on sale at similar prices as are top quality versions in mainstream stores. Having said that of course you need to consider the usefulness of stores like this one when you need something obscure or when the other stores are closed.

China Sol is one of those shops that literally has everything! We went there recently and found really nice dog beds for our dogs—they’re great quality and very affordable.

A Chinese shop where you can buy anything you can think of. Good value for money. Helpful stuff.

Hard working people doing there best tot make the customer happy

An amazing product collection with very competitive prices

Fully stocked at good prices

Pufff. Carisimo

Every year we go to Ale Hop, and everytime i buy something. Such nice stuff they have.

This is a great little shop for picking up all sorts of unusual gifts and bits and pieces you won’t have seen elsewhere. Well worth a visit as you’ll probably find something unexpected.x

My other half loves to visit here. Lots of mainly ‘girly’ stuff. And maybe a few toys for the boys as well. Always manage to buy something here.

What a fun store… This is a place where you can buy funky stuff that are pretty useful and the prices are very low, however quality is pretty acceptable you will find chef gowns and hats, beach stuff, bits and bobs, glasses, very interesting place….enjoy

Great🤝

It has a lot of fun items including other more practical goods very well kept premises

Very good products. Amazing quality and very nice service

All what you need, many things…

Normal Tedi shop as you know it.

Tedi is an Aladdins cave !!! You will find so many things you need plus a lot that you never knew you needed 😂😂😂 beds for dogs ..party decorations.. stationary… flip flops …vases … and so many other wild n wonderful finds ….its not top quality but l defy anyone to leave there empty handed !!!!

Wish Tedi had stores in the UK. Got some lovely home items, on the downside shop could do with a good tidy

This is an excellent shop for home crafts. Accessories for the home, Parties and pets. Prices are great!

Great store with lots of things you need. But often need to wait for staff to stop unpacking to serve.

Great place, lots of different items and great prices

Da Giulia is an absolute delight — one of those places you instantly fall in love with the moment you walk by and catch the smell of freshly baked croissants and good coffee drifting through the air. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or lunch, with a relaxed and welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger. The food is consistently delicious — the Spaghetti Carbonara is creamy and full of flavour, and the bruschetta with fresh tomatoes, garlic, and herbs is simply divine. The sangria here is the best in town — beautifully decorated and almost too pretty to drink (but definitely worth it!). The location couldn’t be better, right on the Marbella Promenade with gorgeous sea views — the perfect spot to sit back, enjoy your meal, and watch the world go by. You’re even treated to a complimentary tapa before your meal, which is such a lovely touch. The staff are genuinely some of the nicest and most friendly people you’ll meet, and the atmosphere is always warm and cheerful, with great background music that adds to the charm. Da Giulia is one of those special places that makes every visit feel like a holiday moment. Highly recommended! 🌊☕🍝🍷

Love this place. We have breakfast here all the time and everything is fresh and delicious. Service is above and beyond. Make this place a regular and you wont be disappointed

We went here in december 2025 to drink a cappuccino in the early morning and during our stay we went here every morning to get my cappuccino. As i told the owners simply the best cappuccino. Every day when i got my cappuccino she said here is your best cappuccino. That made me smile. Thank you. It was the perfect start of the day

This is a very cool place to have breakfast with a view. It’s literally 30 meters away from the sea. The prices are decent and there is a little variety in the menu, but don’t expect anything fancy. The English breakfast is BIG! and you can get it for about 7 euros! Coffee is great too and the people serving here are very friendly and they also speak English! Fully recommend this place for breakfast or a snack!

Please be warned. The Cafeteria has changed hands and is nothing like the same place. There is no notice to tell you. It is only when you place your usual order (been going here for years) that you find out that everything has changed….and NOT IN A GOOD WAY! The menu is different. The new management forgets that “the customer is always right”. When you tell them that this is not how you want your coffee served, you are told “this is the way now”. If you liked our old Da Giulia, you are going to be disappointed, so don’t waste your money or time, It is a huge disappointment.

As others have stated, this place has changed hands and it’s such a shame. Even the bread and tomato is different. The coffee has changed and the croissants are missed. Does anybody know what happened to the original owner / staff / croissant baker? We are on the hunt for a new place…

BRILLIANT place… 10 out of 10!!! Great spot to watch the world go past.. ( my favourite pastime😇🤣) I can vouche for the coffee and food here.. ( its great value ( not the normal “marbella postal code” rip offand freshly prepared…The saff are brilliant (even if crazy as a box of frogs on expresso!!🤣🤣) nothing was too much trouble and really polite and attentive… EVEN I TIPPED THEM!!!!😇🤯🥳… VERY VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND… just don’t bring ya kids and spoil it for everyone else!!!😇

One of the many things I love about Spain the Chinese markets they are all over Spain and I tell you if you can’t find what you want to buy here you can’t but it…everything at great prices …think Temu but in a shop

Great store. Huge selection. Very accommodating staff. Will be back.

The assistant is utterly rude, disrespectful and racist. She refused to let me choose and try on some glasses and literally asked me to leave.

Fun place to visit, but it’s a little pricey and full of junk for the most part. Staff doesn’t seem very interested in helping anymore.

Unlike some other Chinese shops, this one has friendly staff, is well organised and your hands don’t turn a funny colour by the time you are finished 😛

Good selection of products but its a Chinese shop so great prices but poor quality Easy parking at the door

Prices highercthen most chinas ive been to but they have everything! Hard w parking and somewhat uncomftable but still worth a visit!!!!
