Reviews Summary
Marina Rubicón is generally well-regarded as a pleasant and convenient location in Playa Blanca, praised for its scenic promenade, lively markets, and ample parking. While some find the shopping options within the marina limited, the surrounding restaurants offer great dining experiences. A few visitors noted that some shops can be closed, particularly on weekdays.
"A quiet shopping mall with several closed shops (we visited on a Thursday afternoon). Free underground parking plus some outdoor spaces too.
Handy to park and then walk elsewhere such as the Marina area. Not too many eating options inside but several restaurants just outside at the Marina."
Fraser Blacklaws
"My in-laws live here on a yacht moored in the marina so we visit several times a year. Great facilities as a marina (toilets, showers, laundry) and the pool at Oasis that Marina residents can use for free is simply stunning. The market held on a Wednesday and Saturday is fantastic and seems to expand every time we come!"
Nicola Griffiths
"Great to walk round and look at the boats. Note on the marina end the toilets are only for boat owners.
Lots of shops and pretty cobbled streets. Seasonal market that pops up is lovely but gets very busy"
