Meliá Hotels International has announced its plans to bolster its presence in Spain by unveiling a new hotel under The Meliá Collection brand on the Costa del Sol. The hotel, named Bahía Estepona, will join the company’s luxury offerings on the Andalusian coast by mid-2026.
The hotel will be located in the charming town of Estepona, Málaga, and will undergo extensive renovations to enhance its standards and facilities. The Meliá Collection is the company’s brand dedicated to crafting exceptional hotels in exquisite locations, and the Bahía Estepona will mark the first project under this brand on the Costa del Sol.
With 134 rooms and suites, the hotel promises an unmatched seaside experience. Outdoor areas overlooking El Padrón Beach, a stunning swimming pool, tranquil gardens, a fully equipped fitness center, and a spa offering premium treatments will elevate the guest experience. The hotel will also feature three restaurants, an outdoor pool bar, and a lobby bar, providing a diverse gastronomic journey for its guests.
Apart from the luxurious amenities, Bahía Estepona will also provide guests with a unique cultural immersion into the essence of Andalusia. The hotel will offer a curated cultural program, connecting guests to the local culture and enhancing their luxury experience.
Gabriel Escarrer Jaume, Chairman and CEO of Meliá Hotels International, expressed his enthusiasm about the new project. He stated, “Growing in the best Spanish destinations continues to be one of our priorities. With the signing of this The Meliá Collection hotel on the Costa del Sol, we are delighted to strengthen our presence in Andalusia, one of our country’s favorite destinations and where Meliá’s commitment to quality tourism is a consolidated reality”.
Adding Bahía Estepona under The Meliá Collection brand underscores Meliá Hotels International’s growth strategy in Andalusia. The company now has 30 hotels either open or in the process of opening in the region, with two other projects under The Meliá Collection brand in Cádiz and Ronda. Additionally, Meliá Hotels International is set to enhance its luxury portfolio further with the upcoming opening of a ME by Meliá branded hotel in the Málaga city center by the end of the year.
