A Boutique Holiday Rental
Company in Marbella
Marbella Banús Suites is a boutique holiday rental company based in Puerto Banús, Marbella. We manage a selection of premium apartments across Marbella's best locations, from beachfront complexes in Puerto Banús to the Golden Mile and Marbella Centre.
We are one of the very few vacation rental management companies in Spain holding six international certifications and memberships including ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015, verified by I-PRAC for fraud protection, and members of the Wellness Tourism Association, VRMA, and AVVA. Our approach is simple: a limited number of carefully selected properties, managed with a genuine, fully personalised service. We treat every guest like family and every property as our own.
A Boutique Service, Not a Rental Platform
Unlike large-scale holiday rental platforms that list thousands of unverified properties, Marbella Banús Suites operates as a boutique management company. Every part of your stay is handled directly by our team in Marbella.
We Select Every Property
We are one of the very few property managers in Marbella that carefully analyses and selects each property before including it in our portfolio. Every home must meet our standards of location, quality, equipment and comfort. We say no to properties that do not fit. That is how we maintain consistency.
We Design Each Home
Our homes are furnished and styled according to our own experience and design sensibility. We give each property a distinct personality, turning apartments into proper holiday homes with modern amenities, premium furnishings, and Mediterranean-inspired interiors.
We Manage Everything Personally
From the moment you enquire to the day you check out, our local team handles check-in, cleaning, maintenance, and 24/7 guest support. There is no call centre. You speak directly with the people who know your property and know Marbella inside out.
No Booking Fees, Best Rates
When you book directly through our website, there are no booking fees, no hidden charges, and no platform commissions. You get the best available rate, and since 2025, we no longer require security deposits for direct bookings, backed by our I-PRAC verification and €800,000 civil liability insurance.

Meet the Founders
Marbella Banús Suites was founded with a clear goal: to bring genuine hospitality and professional standards to holiday rentals in Marbella.
Gabriel Farias Iribarren
Gabriel Farias Iribarren is an entrepreneur in hospitality and real estate asset management whose professional formation was shaped by the creative and commercial ecosystems of Asia and Southeast Asia — environments where attention to detail is a cultural imperative and hospitality, a discipline in its own right.
At Marbella Banús Suites, that experience becomes method. His approach combines highly profitable asset management with genuine, personalised hospitality — because for Gabriel, maximising the return on a property and caring for the guest are not competing objectives, but two expressions of the same excellence.
His strategic thesis, which he terms "Trustology", places trust at the centre of everything: a trust built on facts, not promises.
Mariana Flocco Rodriguez
Mariana is an entrepreneur in hospitality and real estate asset management whose sensibility was shaped by the most demanding standards of fashion and design across Asia and Southeast Asia — worlds where every detail speaks and the experience of the other is always the point.
At Marbella Banús Suites, that perspective translates into spaces and experiences that go beyond the rental. Each property she curates is a personalised proposition: conceived for the guest who inhabits it, optimised for the owner who invests in it. For Mariana, true hospitality is never improvised — it is designed.
