| Nikki Beach 
Nikki Beach is the new beach venue on the coast. Here you can relax on one of
the huge sun beds; treat yourself to complimentary bottle of bubbly by hiring
a 'Champagne sun bed' for two; or just the sun and sounds at this trendy beach
bar and restaurant.
Located at the Don Carlos Beach & Golf Resort, Nikki beach, Marbella

of their other jet set locations in Miami, St Barth and St Tropez. Nikki

Beach 
There's the phenomenon of the chiringuito, perfect for a quick meal in a relaxed
setting, just meters away from the sea, where you can run in for a swim and then
run back for a meal or a cool drink, and, then again, there's fine dining: creative
Mediterranean cuisine, concocted for the sophisticated palate, with an extensive
list of wines, tranquil surroundings and a philosophy of cuisine particular to
its chef. Few places manage to combine the best of both worlds. Max Beach does
so with resounding success. Although it's already become an institution
for diners along the Costa del Sol, Max Beach was founded just less than two years
ago by husband and wife team, Carl Creemers and Martine Deshcamps. Max Beach (named
after their loyal dog Max) has a seating capacity of over 350. The grand outdoor
dining beach club (cooled by special machines which lower the temperature by quite
a few degrees) right on the beachfront, boasts a dining area that leads off into
a lounge area with a chiringuito bar, chic lounge tables covered by sunshades,
and two Jacuzzis. The lounge area is usually completely filled with diners and
cocktail lovers at night, while the indoor area, more popular in the winter months,
is composed of a large bar, a cosy fireplace and a dining area. The kitchen is
consisting of a young team of chefs, and the underground storage area is impressive.
The cuisine, whipped up by Chef Alex Lambert, has undergone some changes
since Max Beach first opened. You will not find chiringuito cuisine here, but
creative cuisine with Belgian-French and fusion influences. The menu will change
every two or three weeks, to ensure that diners' palates are constantly surprised
by the fresh flavours. Max Beach neatly reflects the current high expectations
of Costa del Sol diners. Good weather, proximity to the sea and island-style ambience
is no longer enough: when dining by the sea. Max Beach is located at:breakfast,
