Ingredient-led cuisine, a grill, gardens and the scent of lemon trees in a unique setting by the pool
At the heart of Boho Club, the exclusive boutique hotel that combines contemporary luxury, a bohemian spirit and warm hospitality, lies one of the most special spots for enjoying al fresco dining in Marbella: Bungalow 21.
Open all year round from 12:00 to 19:00, with food served until 18:00, this space invites you to enjoy a relaxed, unhurried dining experience in a privileged setting surrounded by gardens and overlooking the pool.
More than just a restaurant, Bungalow 21 gives you the feeling of being on the terrace of a good friend’s villa. A cosy, laid-back and elegant place where every detail is designed to make diners feel at home whilst enjoying honest cuisine, based on locally sourced produce, Mediterranean flavours and the star of the show: the grill.
Mediterranean dishes to share
The menu centres on seasonal, ingredient-led cuisine, where the charcoal grill defines the character of each dish. A selection designed for sharing, to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace and to prolong the after-dinner chat amongst friends.
Standout starters include bluefin tuna tartare with sesame and citrus cream, steak tartare served with homemade croissant toasts, and grilled avocado with feta cheese. The menu also features flavourful vegetarian options, such as grilled cauliflower with romesco sauce, watercress and coconut-peanut béchamel, or traditional hummus served with labneh, dates, pistachios and pomegranate. The selection is rounded off by other dishes designed for sharing, such as slow-cooked chicken wing sam, before moving on to a carefully curated selection of charcoal-grilled dishes that form the very essence of Bungalow 21.
Standout specialities include grilled octopus, charcoal-grilled salmon, coquelet marinated in citrus and honey, and selected cuts of beef such as matured beef entrecôte and charcoal-grilled tenderloin. The menu is rounded off with salads made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, such as tomatoes from the Sierra de Coín served with burrata and basil, as well as side dishes and desserts designed for sharing.
The commitment to local and seasonal produce is evident throughout the menu, reinforcing a culinary philosophy that connects with the Mediterranean lifestyle and the essence of Boho Club, where nature, gastronomy and wellbeing coexist in perfect harmony.
One of the most distinctive features of Bungalow 21 is the lemon, which has become both a symbol and the common thread running through the experience. The more than half a dozen lemon trees that adorn the space bring colour, fragrance and character to this gastronomic oasis. Their presence is also reflected on the menu, where the citrus fruit appears as a natural accompaniment to numerous dishes, inviting diners to enhance the flavours with a few drops of freshly squeezed juice. Furthermore, it inspires one of the bar’s most refreshing offerings: a citrus-based cocktail that captures the fresh, luminous essence of the Mediterranean.
With its relaxed atmosphere, ingredient-led cuisine and prime location within Boho Club, Bungalow 21 has established itself as a must-visit destination for those seeking a unique lunch experience in Marbella, where gastronomy, nature and wellbeing come together in perfect harmony.
Behind Bungalow 21 lies the culinary vision of Diego del Río, executive chef at Boho Club, who has championed this concept as a natural extension of the resort’s culinary philosophy. To this end, he has relied on the talent and experience of Andrea Cervera, his head chef, who is responsible for crafting a menu that upholds the standards of quality, produce and creativity that characterise Boho Club’s culinary offering. The result is a fresh, approachable and unpretentious concept which, without compromising on excellence, invites guests to enjoy Mediterranean cuisine in a relaxed setting designed for sharing.
To toast
The experience is rounded off with a carefully curated selection of wines, beers and cocktails, making Bungalow 21 the perfect spot to linger over a meal or enjoy a relaxing break by the pool. Alongside international classics such as the Negroni, Dry Martini, Margarita, Moscow Mule and Espresso Martini, the menu features signature creations inspired by the venue’s Mediterranean spirit. Among these, Le Monnier stands out, made with Saline vodka, limoncello, vanilla and fresh lemon. The exclusivity of this cocktail lies in one of its main ingredients: Saline vodka, a limited-edition spirit that can only be enjoyed at Boho Club in Marbella. Rounding off the selection are Brisa de Saúco, with notes of green apple, lemon and cardamom, and Golden Mile, a refreshing combination of tequila, watermelon and lemon that pays homage to the Marbella lifestyle.
