Shop and dine while enjoying views of the Costa del Sol coastline and Andalusian mountains at this upmarket retail mall.
Centro Plaza (officially Centro Plaza Centro Commercial or Centro Plaza Shopping Centre) is a retail and business complex in Marbella’s luxury Golden Mile district. The plaza has a varied selection of fashion and homeware stores, bars, restaurants and tourism services. Centro Plaza opened in 1990 and has 172,222 square feet (16,000 square meters) of floor space spread over three levels.
The mall’s shops are set around an outdoor courtyard and indoor spaces. Browse boutiques for the latest trends in clothing and footwear and get fitted for a bespoke Panama hat or couture dresses. Purchase stylish gifts for your home at interior design stores, pamper yourself at beauty salons and take ballroom dance classes at the dance studio.
When you get hungry or simply feel like a rest, take a seat at one of the casual dining options. Dine on cuisine influenced by traditional Japanese, Mediterranean, North American and Thai flavors. The restaurant at the rear of the mall’s upper floor has a terrace with magnificent views of Andalusia’s countryside and rugged mountain ranges. There’s also a supermarket, should you wish to pick up supplies to take back to your accommodations.
Visit on a Saturday for the Street Market, when traders set up stalls in the courtyard. Browse everything from children’s apparel to handmade jewelry and one-of-a-kind art pieces. The market provides the opportunity to both buy souvenirs and interact with artisans from the region.
Located in the Nueva Andalucía district, the mall is a 10-minute drive from central Marbella. The popular Puerto Banús Beach is a 20-minute walk away. Metered parking is available for over 300 vehicles. Nearby attractions include Casino Marbella, Puerto Banús Marina and Plaza Antonio Banderas, a square lined with bars and nightclubs.
Centro Plaza is open daily, although individual businesses have their own operation hours. Check the centre’s official website for more information.
