Today, I’m joined by Iain Blackwell, a true Scottish gentleman who made his way to Marbella 38 years ago. He’s the mastermind behind the coast’s most popular magazine, Essential, which is celebrating an incredible 25 years this autumn. Over the next hour, you’ll hear the fascinating story of how a humble man, who once studied pure mathematics and lived in India, built one of the most successful magazines in Marbella.
Iain's favorite restaurant in Banús is Los Bandidos and in the Old Town, Zozoï.
For Beach serenity, Dune Beach and incredible views, Tikitano.
For Marbella Party vibes, Ocean Club, Breath and Air.
For an oasis mood, Boho Club and for sheer sophistication, Finca Cortesin.
I also really like the new Sublim Beach, Villa Padierna Club de Playa, and Isola and Ammos at the METT Hotel & Beach Resort.
