Think fireworks, flamenco, fiestas and fairs and you’re envisioning the week-long San Bernabe festivities held every year in Marbella. Nothing short of spectacular these seven days are packed full of exciting things to see and do on the Costa del Sol. If you want to take part in this traditional Spanish spectacular, Go2Spain’s online resource for cheap accommodation in Spain is the ideal place to start looking for a hotel on the Costa del Sol.

Beginning with a fabulous firework display in the Paseo Marítimo, this inauguration marks the start of parties held in the plazas of the old town, filling it up with the sounds and sights of people partying. Outdoor bars are erected and traditional food is served, giving you a chance to sample the local cuisine for a fraction of the price while watching locals parade past in typically colourful, Andalusian dress. With so much happening you’ll want to be close to the action by staying in a hotel in Marbella.

El Faro Inn Aparthotel is ideal for those on a tight budget. Just minutes from the beach and main promenade, it allows you to have the benefits of self-catering while maintaining the comfort of a hotel. The accommodation is fully air-conditioned, with a pool and a 24hour reception so no matter what time you stagger back, they’ll always be someone on hand to help with any enquiry. A studio starts at £24 per person per night including breakfast and is based on 2 people sharing.

Bursting with excitement, the San Bernabe provides something different to see every day. Throughout the festival, concerts are staged which showcase a diversity of musical and dance talents while bullfights take place in the plaza de toro each night. There is also a huge feria (or fair) to appeal to kids young and old.

The Hotel Princesa Playa offers an alternative but equally as affordable way to join the fun with 36 one-bedroom apartments and 64 studio flats all finished to a high standard. There is a rooftop pool which provides stunning views over the sea and allows for some privacy away from the packed beaches. Prices of a studio start from approximately £28 per person per night without breakfast.

On the last day, the main processions take place. The morning parade commemorates the Reconquista (Reconquest), the time when the Spanish monarchs expelled the Moors from the kingdom and regained control. The second in the afternoon is in honour of San Bernabé and brings a fitting close to the week’s celebrations.
