Higuerón Resort Unveils Summer 2026 Gourmet Experiences

The Costa del Sol has long been a magnet for those seeking the finer things in life. This summer 2026, the culinary landscape of the region reaches new heights—complemented by exclusive highlights such as José Carlos García’s Michelin summer menu in Marbella—as Higuerón Gran Málaga Resort launches its premium gourmet experiences. Positioned on the scenic hillsides bordering Fuengirola and Benalmádena, the resort has firmly established itself as a premier hub where luxury accommodation, wellness, and avant-garde gastronomy seamlessly align.

For international residents and discerning travelers who appreciate high-end lifestyle experiences, such as the traditional bluefin tuna ronqueo in Mijas, the resort’s curated summer program offers a sophisticated escape from the typical coastal crowds.

A Diverse Culinary Ecosystem

What sets the resort apart this season is its commitment to providing diverse dining environments, each tailored to a specific mood and palate. According to a recent feature by La Razón, Higuerón Resort has meticulously designed an extraordinary summer experience that connects high-end hospitality with cutting-edge gastronomy.

From Michelin-starred excellence to relaxed beachfront sophistication, the resort’s culinary portfolio for 2026 includes several standout venues, echoing the region’s growing luxury appeal as highlighted by the auction of Málaga’s La Térmica plot for a new 5-star hotel:

• Sollo Restaurant: Directed by the “Chef of Caviar,” Diego Gallegos, this Michelin-starred and Green-starred venue remains the crown jewel of the resort. Sollo focuses on sustainable, creative cuisine featuring freshwater fish and unique caviar pairings, offering an unforgettable journey for fine-dining enthusiasts.
• Higuerón Beach Club: Located right on the water, the beach club blends Mediterranean flavors with fresh, locally sourced seafood. It is the perfect spot for long, breezy lunches that transition into sunset cocktails.
• The Japo: For lovers of Asian-fusion cuisine, this space offers precision-crafted sushi and contemporary Japanese dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients from the Andalusian coast.
• Arara Bistro Bar: A vibrant space where Latin American flavors meet Mediterranean roots, offering a colorful, informal, yet highly refined dining experience.

Combining Wellness and Gastronomy

For the summer 2026 season, the resort is emphasizing the connection between physical well-being and mindful eating. Many of the menus have been updated to feature organic ingredients, locally sourced produce, and lighter, nutrient-dense options that complement the offerings of the award-winning Higuerón Spa and Sport Club.

Whether you are visiting for a weekend getaway or reside permanently on the coast, these culinary spaces provide a private, secure, and upscale environment to socialize, host business dinners, or enjoy quiet family moments.

As the warm Mediterranean breeze rolls in, there is nothing quite like sharing a beautifully prepared meal with friends under the Andalusian stars. We hope this summer brings you plenty of opportunities to slow down, savor local flavors, and enjoy the exceptional lifestyle that makes our corner of Málaga so incredibly special.
