Stag and Hen parties in Puerto Banus are more popular than ever, and revellers flock from all over Europe to celebrate their last nights of freedom in this glitzy resort.

Known as Spain´s party town, this stunning Marina has been transformed into a luxury holiday resort which is now easily accessible and affordable with the introduction of more budget airlines flying to Malaga. It only takes two hours to fly from London to Malaga, and approximately 30 minutes from the airport to Puerto Banus.

There are some amazing hotel package deals available in and around the Marina, and there is also a vast range of self catering accommodation to choose from. The Marina is packed with fabulous bars, restaurants, nightclubs and designer shops to keep even the most discerning Stags and Hens entertained, along with some of the best salons and beauty treatment centres you will find in Spain.

Such is the pull of Puerto Banus, many of the resort´s late night bars offer special rates and riotous packages for Stags and Hens, including free bubbly or fish bowl cocktails on arrival, strippers, a private VIP area, drinking games, and a dedicated waiter/waitress depending on your preferences. The services of a photographer are also thrown in, although you may not want to put the prints in the family album! Most of the more lively bars are open until the small hours of the morning, and all feature live music or discos to keep revellers on the dance floor.

With over 320 days of sunshine a year, it is no surprise that Puerto Banus boasts many excellent beach bars and seafood restaurants overlooking the Mediterranean. This resort maintains its elegance and charm, while offering a diverse range of cafe-bars, fast food joints, and fine dining restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets.

If you fancy trying something different for your Stag or Hen weekend, luxury car and boat hire is also available from the Marina, and sports enthusiasts will find plenty on facilities on the nearby beaches including water skiing, parasailing, windsurfing and scuba diving. Two of Marbella´s best beaches are situated either side of Puerto Banus, and there´s no better place to relax before the evening fun begins.

If lounging around on the beach isn´t your cup of tea, Golf Valley, situated close by at Nueva Andalucia, is home to some of the coast´s best championship golf courses including Los Naranjos, La Quinta and Las Brisas. There is even a floodlit course called Dama de Noche, which is surrounded by stunning scenery, a backdrop of mountains, and provides enthusiasts with the best facilities on the Costa del Sol. If you are planning a Stag Party in Puerto Banus, many of the local golf courses will give you discounted rates with advance booking.

Puerto Banus is a slick resort with a tendency to over-indulge the adults. When José Banús first gave his name to this port in the 1950´s, he could never have envisaged it would develop into the most famous Marina in Europe and host some of the best Stag and Hen Parties in the world. Whether you fancy a night of music and dancing, a trip aboard a luxury yacht, or even a full day´s pampering at one of Marbella´s most famous salons to celebrate your Hen or Stag Party in Puerto Banus, you will definitely take home some unforgettable memories.
