Get to know Marbella

Hostels in Marbella

Marbella is Cartagena’s best-kept secret for budget travelers who want beachfront access without the tourist crowds. Located just minutes from the historic walled city, this coastal district offers an affordable and relaxed atmosphere, making it an excellent base for backpackers looking to balance city exploration with oceanfront downtime.

Staying in hostels in Marbella means waking up to sea views while still being close to Cartagena’s cultural hotspots. Unlike the busier areas, Marbella provides a more local experience, with small eateries serving fresh seafood and quiet beaches where you can unwind after a day of sightseeing.

Why Stay Here?

  • Affordable hostels in Marbella with easy beach access.
  • Less touristy, more relaxed than the walled city and Bocagrande.
  • Quick access to the historic center via a short taxi or bus ride.
  • Local food spots offering fresh seafood and traditional dishes.
  • Peaceful beach atmosphere without the high prices of other coastal districts.

Landmarks and Timeless Attractions

Marbella’s main attraction is its long, uninterrupted stretch of beach, ideal for morning walks and sunset views. The nearby **Las Bóvedas**, a historic market built into the old city walls, is just a short trip away, offering a glimpse into Cartagena’s colonial past.

For history lovers, the **Castillo San Felipe de Barajas** is a must-visit and is easily accessible from Marbella. If you’re looking to experience Cartagena’s street art and culture, the colorful streets of **Getsemaní** are just a short ride away.

Getting Around

  • Walking: Perfect for exploring the beachfront and nearby streets.
  • Taxis: An affordable and quick way to reach the walled city and Getsemaní.
  • Public Bus: Transcaribe buses run between Marbella and central Cartagena.

Cultural Tips

  • Respect the local beaches: Keep them clean and avoid littering.
  • Try the street food: Local vendors sell delicious arepas and fresh fruit.
  • Watch the waves: Marbella’s beach can have strong currents, so swim with caution.

Final Thoughts

Hostels in Marbella offer backpackers a unique mix of affordability, beachside relaxation, and quick access to Cartagena’s cultural landmarks. If you’re looking for a more laid-back atmosphere while staying close to the action, Marbella is the perfect spot to set up base.
