THE COMPLETE GUIDE

Marbella Hen Do Ideas — Everything Your Group Can Do

From the boat and the beach club to the villa party and the night out — every experience available for a Marbella hen weekend, with honest advice on how to combine them.

WHAT'S AVAILABLE

Everything a Marbella hen weekend can be

A Marbella hen weekend is built around your group — not a fixed package. Private boat charters, beach clubs with reserved space for the whole group, villa party packages set up before you arrive, private chefs, day activities, restaurants, and some of the best nightlife in Europe. Everything on this page is available to include in a single bespoke proposal. You tell us what you want and we build around it.

Marbella hen party boat charter — group on private yacht Mediterranean

BOATS & YACHTS

The experience groups talk about for years

Ask any group what the highlight of their Marbella hen weekend was. The answer is almost always the boat. A private charter from Puerto Banús marina — your group, the Mediterranean, and a full day anchored in a bay with nowhere to be.

Seven options from the budget Float & Fizz Cruise to the Ultimate Hen Yacht Experience. Every charter is private — your group only, no strangers sharing the vessel. The catamaran is the most popular choice for most group sizes. For groups with five days, the yacht is worth the upgrade.

GOOD TO KNOW

The boat needs its own day. Don't try to combine it with a beach club — both experiences are better when they have the full day. Plan them on separate days.

BEACH CLUBS

A full day in the sun — reserved for your group

Ten beach clubs in our collection — from Kova's Sunday Bottomless Brunch to Ocean Club, Nikki Beach, La Sala By The Sea, Mogli The Key, and more. All pre-booked, all with reserved space for your group, all with dedicated service from arrival.

Kova on a Sunday is our most consistently booked experience: four hours, bottomless cocktails, sharing food, live DJ, sun beds included. The right club for the rest of the collection depends on your group's vibe and which day of the weekend it falls on.

HONEST ADVICE

If your trip runs Thursday to Sunday, plan the beach club for Sunday and build the rest of the weekend around it. The Sunday Bottomless Brunch at Kova deserves the full day — not an afternoon squeezed in after something else.

NIGHTLIFE

Puerto Banús runs late — here's how to do it properly

The sequence that works: dinner from 8pm, Linekers VIP from 11pm, Tibu or Pangea from midnight. Groups that skip the sequence and arrive at a nightclub at 10pm spend two hours in a half-empty room. Groups that follow it have the night they came for.

Linekers includes a roped-off VIP area, dedicated male waiter, bubbly on arrival, a personalised plasma screen with the bride's name and photos, and £25 drinks credit per person. The most popular pre-club stop for hen groups in Puerto Banús.

THE ONE RULE

Tibu and Pangea are best from midnight. Follow this and the night will be significantly better than for groups who do not.

RESTAURANTS & DINING

Dinner sets the tone for everything that follows

Four restaurants, multiple package options. Kova's 3-Course Dining & Tibu Entry is the most popular combination we plan — dinner and the nightclub covered in a single booking. La Sala for a group set dinner before a night out. Leone on the marina for something more elevated. Oak Firehouse for groups who want a genuine feast.

All pre-booked through us. A group of fifteen or more cannot walk into a good Puerto Banús restaurant on a Saturday evening without a reservation — the best positions go to groups who book months in advance.

DAY ACTIVITIES & VILLA ENTERTAINMENT

What fills the mornings, afternoons, and villa evenings

Day activities get the group out of the villa — the cocktail masterclass at Linekers, archery tag, beach games, nerf wars, and canyoning in the Sierra de las Nieves. Villa entertainment comes to you — karaoke, cheeky butler, cocktail class at the villa, paint and sip, DJ hire, cava wall, and more.

Most well-planned weekends include at least one of each. They serve different purposes and work best on different days — a morning activity before a beach club afternoon is one of the most popular combinations we plan.

VILLA PARTY PACKAGES & PRIVATE CHEFS

Transform the villa into the main event

Themed villa party packages — Last Fling Before the Ring, Seashells & Wedding Bells, Last Rumble in the Jungle, and five more — plus two 360 photo booth packages for groups who want the content as much as the experience. All set up and ready before your group arrives.

Private dining options from a sparkling continental breakfast to a live paella, villa BBQ, and a full hog roast. A private chef means no restaurant bookings, no taxis mid-evening, and no one getting left behind.

THE VILLA

The foundation everything else is built around

The villa is not the accommodation — it is where the weekend actually happens. Where the group wakes up together, eats together, and comes back to after every activity. Every villa in our collection is fully private — no shared facilities, no strangers, no hotel corridors.

Sixteen villas across Puerto Banús and Elviria. Multi-villa combinations available for larger groups. Personally vetted by our Marbella-based team — we have been inside every property we recommend.

BOOK THIS FIRST

Secure the villa before you confirm anything else. It is the one element that cannot be replaced once it is gone. Activities, restaurants, and nightlife can all be adjusted — the villa cannot.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about Marbella hen do ideas

What are the best hen do ideas for Marbella?

The best Marbella hen weekends are built around four core experiences: a private villa, a private boat charter, a beach club day, and a night out in Puerto Banús. Most groups add villa entertainment on arrival — a themed party package, cheeky butler, cocktail station or private chef. The boat and beach club must be on separate days. Groups that combine both into one day consistently report that neither felt complete. Everything is bespoke — built around your specific group, not a fixed package.

What is the best boat party option for a Marbella hen do?

Seven private charter options from Puerto Banús marina — every one exclusive to your group. The VIP All-Inclusive Catamaran is the most popular choice for most group sizes — fully private, all drinks included, swimming stops, and consistently the experience groups mention first when they look back on the weekend. For groups who want a step up, the Cheeky Catamaran Pink Instagram Edition adds a cheeky butler and coordinated props. For groups with five days and the right budget, the Ultimate Hen Yacht Experience is the top of the collection. Browse all options on the Boats & Yachts page.

Which beach club is best for a Marbella hen do?

It depends on the day and your group's vibe. Kova Sunday Bottomless Brunch is the most consistently booked experience we plan — four hours, bottomless cocktails and mocktails, sharing food, live DJ, sun beds included, Sundays only. Ocean Club suits groups who want the iconic upscale setting with VIP beds. Nikki Beach for glamour and the world-famous atmosphere. Mogli The Key for something newer with excellent music. La Sala By The Sea for a relaxed day with quality food. Full venue-by-venue guide in the beach clubs guide.

What hen party entertainment can you hire in Marbella?

Everything comes to the villa. Themed party packages including Last Fling Before the Ring, Seashells and Wedding Bells, Last Rumble in the Jungle and five more. Cheeky butlers, DJ hire, cocktail masterclasses, cava walls, 360 photo booths, paint and sip sessions, life drawing, inflatable pool games and karaoke. Private chefs for villa dining from a continental breakfast to a live paella, BBQ feast or full hog roast. All delivered and set up by our vetted suppliers. Browse the full range on the Villa Experiences page.

What is the best nightlife for a Marbella hen do?

Puerto Banús nightlife works best when you follow the right sequence. For groups who want a VIP bar night, Linekers is the most popular choice — roped-off VIP area, personalised plasma screen with the bride's name, dedicated male waiter, bubbly on arrival and €25 drinks credit per person. For groups who want a full nightclub experience, the sequence is pre-club drinks from around 10pm, then Tibu or Pangea from midnight — both are best from midnight and groups that arrive earlier spend hours in a half-empty room. Tibu is Marbella's premier nightclub with VIP table and bottle service. Pangea suits larger groups wanting full bottle service in a bigger venue. Full guide in the nightlife guide.

Is La Sala good for a Marbella hen do?

Yes — La Sala is one of the most popular restaurant choices for hen groups in Puerto Banús. The Hen Party Set Menu includes a welcome cava, 2 courses and half a bottle of wine per person, with an open bar upgrade available. The Bottomless Brunch Bash offers 2 hours of bottomless Bucks Fizz and OJ with a brunch menu on the Puerto Banús marina. La Sala works best as a dinner before a night out or a brunch earlier in the weekend — not as a standalone beach club day. For the full beach club experience, Kova or Ocean Club on a separate day is the right call.

Is Nikki Beach good for a Marbella hen do?

Nikki Beach is well known and genuinely iconic — but it is not always the best fit for hen groups. The atmosphere skews more towards couples and mixed groups than dedicated hen party celebrations. Groups who have been to both consistently say Ocean Club or Kova delivered a better hen-specific experience. That said, for groups who want the prestige of the Nikki Beach name and have multiple beach club days planned, it is worth including for the variety.

How many activities can you fit into a Marbella hen weekend?

A well-planned 4-day weekend typically includes a boat day, a beach club day, one or two morning or afternoon activities, one or two nights out, and one or two villa dining or entertainment experiences. The key rule is one headline experience per day — the boat gets its own day, the beach club gets its own day. Groups that try to combine both in one day do neither properly. A morning activity before a beach club afternoon is one of the most popular combinations we plan.
