Two terraces in Málaga, considered among the best

The good weather arrives and with it the desire to enjoy the sun. Málaga is a land of terraces and beach bars as summer approaches and we settle into it. Speaking of top-tier terraces, those for special occasions, the prestigious Cosmopolitan magazine lists seven of the "best terraces of 2026 to eat or have a drink," including two located in the province of Málaga, one in the capital and another in Marbella. We are talking about Lolita Skyview (Málaga) and La Petite Maison (Marbella).

"As temperatures rise, terraces once again become the stage where everything happens: from aperitifs to late nights," Cosmopolitan explains, advocating and focusing on "the most refreshing and light menus, long after-meal conversations, toasting with well-crafted cocktails, and getting carried away by a soundtrack that lasts into the night." It is there that they focus and find two clear coincidences in the province of Málaga with the terraces of two hotels, one in the heart of Málaga and another in Marbella, the Lolita Skyview at Only YOU and La Petite Maison at Puente Romano.

Lolita Skyview (Málaga)

"With one of the best panoramas of Málaga, this rooftop offers good music, a great cocktail menu, and a gastronomic proposal that includes Andalusian dishes blended with others like sushi," is the mention left by Lolita Skyview, undoubtedly one of the best terraces in all of Málaga capital, atop the Only YOU Hotel Málaga, with perfect views of Larios Street, Paseo del Parque, and the Bay of Málaga.

One of the most striking features for visitors is the 'infinity pool', although it is exclusively for hotel guests. What everyone can enjoy are its cocktails (€14.5), smoothies (€13), and drinks, as well as a menu

La Petite Maison (Marbella)

"The essence of the French Riviera sets up another season at Puente Romano, with views of the Mediterranean, live music with top DJs, and a menu that combines classics like Nicole Rubi style sea bass or truffle rigatoni," they note about La Petite Maison, a classic in Marbella located in Puente Romano, one of the largest hotel complexes on the Marbella coast: "Their famous Tomatini is also a must-try."

The place also features a spectacular pool surrounded by umbrellas, sun loungers, and Balinese beds at the foot of the Mediterranean, an opportunity to enjoy a top-tier experience.
