Ramon Guiral and the Marbella Cafe del Mar

Ramon Guiral started the first Cafe del Mar on Ibiza in 1980, and since then the brand has expanded to take in Dubai, Marbella, and many other locations worldwide. Not only is Cafe del Mar renowned for being in prime locations where sunsets can be enjoyed, but its brands of chill-out music and beachwear are among the top ten brands of their type, including Cafe del Mar, Cafe del Sol, SensoMusic and IbizaMagic.

The Marbella Cafe del Mar, behind the Coral Beach Hotel, was inaugurated this summer by the Russian partners, and Ramón decided to celebrate his birthday privately with a group of friends at La Pesquera recently.

Guests included Lara Krisanova, Maria Jose Santiago, Natasha Romanoff, Juan Jose Vega, Vitaliy Ruschynskyy, Igor Fomin, Enrique Moncada, Bijo, Noli Linn, and many more. Ramon is taking up permanent residence with his wife and family in Marbella.
