Concierge Desk / FAQ

Essential Visitor Information

A minimum spend (often applied to VIP daybeds or frontline cabanas) means that the entry fee you pay is fully convertible into credit for food, premium bottles, and champagne during your stay. At elite venues like Ocean Club, La Cabane, or Nikki Beach, minimum spends vary heavily depending on the row (frontline to the sea vs. pool center) and the specific event calendar. Contact our concierge via WhatsApp to get the exact layout maps and current spend requirements for your requested date.

Yes, select premium beach clubs offer dedicated tender services (Zodiac pickups) for clients anchoring offshore. Venues located along the Golden Mile (near Puente Romano) and Marbella East (such as La Cabane and Nikki Beach) are ideal for private yacht positioning. Our captain can anchor your charter luxury yacht right outside the swimming barrier, allowing you to enjoy a seamless private transfer directly onto the resort's deck.

For peak months (June through August), frontline beach beds, Super VIP decks, and weekend slots at iconic venues are typically fully booked 3 to 6 weeks in advance. High-energy events, such as the Ocean Club Champagne Parties or Nikki Beach Sunday Brunches, require even earlier planning. If you are booking a last-minute luxury yacht charter with us, our concierge desk can often utilize direct PR connections to bypass standard waiting lists.
