Apartamento Rio Mar, Marbella Overview
Apartamento Rio Mar is located in Marbella, Spain. Rated 9.2 out of 10 based on 8 guest reviews.
Apartamento Rio Mar is a practical, family-friendly base in Marbella, Spain, designed for travelers who want easy access to the coast while still having space to unwind. Set in the Urbanización Rio Verde area at Calle Marqués de Ivanrey, 14, Edificio Rio Mar, it suits groups who prefer a quieter residential setting over the busiest parts of town. Guests consistently rate the stay highly, with a 9.2/10 score from eight reviews, suggesting a smooth experience for both first-time visitors and repeat travelers.
The apartment’s outdoor areas help set the tone: you can spend time on the terrace and enjoy the property’s garden and swimming pool when you’re not out by the sea. Air conditioning is a key comfort factor in Marbella’s warmer months, and WiFi makes it easier to plan day trips or keep in touch. Parking is free, which is a meaningful advantage for road trips along the Costa del Sol.

If you’re looking for a marina-side atmosphere, Marbella Marina is about 9 km.
Best for families and pet owners who want a calm neighborhood, plus drivers who value free parking and the flexibility of staying in a self-contained apartment rather than a hotel room.
