Designed for those seeking to unwind away from the everyday, the resort features contemporary décor throughout, generous suites with private terraces and pools or whirlpools, and extensive gardens that tumble down to a blue‑flagged stretch of beach. With bespoke service at every turn, guests can choose how they spend each day—lounging by the infinity pool, reading beneath a parasol on the shore or savouring a handcrafted cocktail as the sun dips below the horizon.

Despite its proximity to the island’s cultural heart, Nido, Mar-Bella Collection feels entirely removed from the bustle, allowing guests to relax in complete privacy while remaining within reach of the island’s most celebrated attractions.

Active guests will appreciate the on‑site fitness pop‑up sessions and yoga classes, while those seeking discovery may book a private yacht cruise or guided island tour through Mar‑Bella Collection’s exclusive concierge.
