Experience of the Month: Sunborn Gibraltar, Super Yacht Hotel


Sunborn Gibraltar - Super Yacht Hotel

Welcome to the world's first luxury super yacht hotel.

With a permanent home on the island's celebrated Ocean Village marina, the Sunborn Gibraltar is seven floors of something special. Step aboard and find a unique experience: the privacy and exclusivity of an ocean-going superyacht married to the quality and comfort of a five-star hotel.

The spacious top-deck restaurant with an alfresco terrace is a magical venue. Complete with a retractable roof and floor-to-ceiling folding glass doors, it provides an elegant backdrop for a special gathering – under the sun or beneath the stars.

At the back of the yacht, the relaxed sundeck bar and lounge set the scene perfectly for a memorable cocktail party or couples' retreat.

There are plenty of interesting venues in Gibraltar itself – subterranean St Michael’s Cave, sub-tropical Alameda Botanical Gardens and spectacular top-of-the-Rock Mons Calpe Suite – whatever you have in mind, the staff can help make it happen.

Staff are discreet, attentive and multi-lingual, and service is second to none and tailored to your needs. Room service is available till 11pm and you can request concierge help with taxi, theatre and restaurant bookings as well as advice on visiting local attractions – or even arranging a round of golf.

Guests can enjoy up-to-the-minute information courtesy of a sophisticated in-room TV-based system that provides access to restaurant and spa reservations plus other hotel services.

 

Guest Rooms

The Sunborn Gibraltar has 168 rooms and a further 21 suites, executive rooms and apartments. Accommodation is beyond luxurious, with sumptuous furnishings, elegant bathrooms, and superb private balconies and terraces. Picture windows flood the rooms with light and make the most of the panoramic views.

Sunborn Gibraltar has a total of 189 luxury guest hotel rooms and suites. Designed to provide spacious, light-filled accommodation, each room has marina, Rock or sea views – in most cases framed by wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows which lead out onto a generous private terrace or balcony.

Smart storage solutions, pristine bathrooms and elegant, contemporary fabrics and furnishings are used throughout, creating a fabulous five-star finish.

 

Infinity Spa

Treat yourself to a luxury experience in the serene Infinity Spa. It provides a gloriously tranquil escape from the world outside, offering guests the opportunity to be thoroughly pampered in a first-class private sanctuary.

Let the expert therapists tailor skin-specific treatments using the very best Elemis skincare products with active natural ingredients to nourish, hydrate, and renew – and to promote a sense of wellness.

The spa specialises in effective anti-aging, purifying, and calming facial treatments plus relaxing massages, wraps, and day-long spa rituals. We can soothe and smooth hands and feet, and offer bespoke hair and make-up packages, too – perfect as part of your preparations for a special celebration. Indulge in one of our romantic couples’ packages too, complete with champagne and chocolates.

 

The Sundeck

Unwind in an idyllic setting onboard Sunborn Gibraltar. Relax on the sundeck, take a dip in the pool and enjoy the far-reaching views – it’s a little slice of heaven on a sunny day. A serene oasis in the middle of the bustling marina, the sundeck and bar is just the place for lounging in the sun with a cold drink and a good book – or to simply sit and watch the world go by. Utter bliss.

Situated on the stern of the yacht, it provides the ideal backdrop for a lazy day under sunny skies. Lie back on one of the luxury poolside loungers or head for the shade of a parasol – and an iced drink – on the terrace. Drinks and snacks are served throughout the day.

Relaxed Rooftop Dining

There’s something for everyone in the versatile top-deck Sky Restaurant. The relaxed atmosphere, extensive breakfast, lunch, and supper menus plus al fresco dining option makes this a popular choice all day long. The skilled international chefs make creative use of the best ingredients to provide signature dishes that change with the seasons.

The lunch and dinner menu is classic Mediterranean with a contemporary twist: seasonal salads, soups, and fresh fish – plus favourite cuts straight from the grill – and you’ll find an extensive wine list of carefully selected classics. Why not start the day with a sublime breakfast of fruit, freshly baked bread and pastries, cooked specialties, cold cuts, waffles, and pancakes?

 

Stepping Ashore: Gibraltar

Gibraltar has much to offer: established nature reserves and botanical gardens, panoramic vistas from the summit of the Rock, safe beaches, watersports, ancient limestone caves – and 300 days of annual sunshine.

It’s a convenient base from which to explore Andalusia or to venture further afield. Spain’s world-famous Valderrama golf course is close by, while exotic Tangier just a ferry ride across the Strait.

The new airport welcomes regular scheduled and charter flights from all major UK airports, and with the Sunborn Gibraltar moored only a couple of minutes away, it’s the smoothest passenger transfer ever – from take-off to drinks on the terrace in under three hours.
