Reference: R112-08726Property Description
Restaurante La Virginia is one of Marbella’s most distinctive and emblematic restaurant properties, offering a rare opportunity to acquire an established hospitality business in a truly charming setting. Founded in 1971, the restaurant has built a strong reputation over several decades and continues to benefit from a loyal, returning clientele. Its history, character and established presence make it an especially appealing option for anyone looking to step into a fully operational business with an existing customer base.
The restaurant is located within the beautiful La Virginia urbanization, a picturesque Andalusian pueblo-style development renowned for its whitewashed architecture, flower-filled patios, peaceful squares and traditional Mediterranean atmosphere. The development itself has a unique sense of place, with winding pedestrian streets, intimate courtyards, two restaurants and a charming chapel, all contributing to the romantic and authentic character of the surroundings. Despite its tranquil atmosphere, La Virginia is conveniently situated within walking distance of Marbella town centre, providing easy access for both local residents and visitors.
The property is arranged over two levels and also benefits from a spacious outdoor terrace. It offers a total capacity of approximately 60 guests, with seating for around 30 people inside and a further 30 on the terrace. This combination of indoor and outdoor dining space makes the restaurant suitable for year-round operation, while the terrace provides an especially attractive setting for lunches, evening dining and special occasions in Marbella’s mild climate.
The interior retains the warmth and personality expected from a long-established restaurant, while the overall layout provides practical areas for dining and day-to-day operation. The attractive location and intimate setting create an atmosphere that feels both exclusive and welcoming, allowing a new owner to continue the existing concept or introduce their own culinary vision.
One of the most valuable advantages of this opportunity is the continuity available to an incoming owner. The current owners are willing to remain involved in the operation of the restaurant for up to six months following the sale. This transition period can provide valuable support, helping the new owner become familiar with the business, clientele, suppliers and daily operations while maintaining consistency for regular customers.
For an experienced restaurateur, entrepreneur or investor seeking an established hospitality business in Marbella, Restaurante La Virginia represents a compelling proposition. Rather than starting a restaurant from the ground up, the purchaser can acquire a functioning business with history, character, existing clientele and an established presence in one of Marbella’s most charming residential settings.
Combining an iconic location, attractive indoor and outdoor dining areas, operational continuity and decades of goodwill, this property offers the opportunity to take over a restaurant with genuine personality and heritage. It is an ideal choice for anyone looking to continue a successful existing business while also having the freedom to develop and shape its next chapter.
Its combination of tradition, atmosphere and accessibility gives the restaurant broad appeal, from long-standing local customers to international residents and visitors seeking an authentic Marbella dining experience in a truly memorable and elegant Andalusian setting.
