After a week of exploring Spain on a road trip from Madrid to Granada with kids, we were craving a slower pace, and La Zambra delivered. In this La Zambra hotel review, I’m sharing our experience at this stunning 5-star family hotel in Mijas, located between Málaga and Marbella on Spain’s southern coast.
Once known as the iconic Byblos Hotel (yes, Princess Diana and the Rolling Stones stayed here!), it’s been reimagined into a tranquil, design-forward resort that blends Andalusian charm with modern comfort.
Whether you’re doing a Spain road trip with kids, looking for a luxury resort near Málaga, or just want a relaxing base to recharge, La Zambra is a peaceful stop that worked perfectly for our family.
