Marbella will host the world's first Solana brand 'pool club'

The Juvia Group, a restaurant group founded in Miami that encompasses ten iconic gastronomic concepts, will open its first ever 'pool club' under the newly created brand Solana in Marbella. The leisure facility will be located at the ME Marbella hotel, situated in Puerto Banús, and will offer a balanced, innovative, and bright culinary proposal by Chef David Vignaud, who calls it 'Cuisine of the Sun'. The menu will feature highlights such as Solana ceviche, pacheri carretilleros, and côte de boeuf cooked on a Josper grill. The 'pool club' will also have a cocktail menu created by Juvia Group's mixologist, Keith Butler, which will blend exotic flavors, surprising nuances, and unusual mixes to be enjoyed during lunch or at sunset. The venue will boast an aesthetic of sea blue and sun yellow tones, complemented by avant-garde decor with Balinese beds around a swimming pool. "Solana is the expression of our vision. A fusion of cultures, flavors, and atmospheres that come to life under the sun. We can't imagine a better setting than Marbella for its first opening," states Jonás Millán, co-founder of Juvia Group alongside Alexandra Millán. Following its opening in Marbella, Juvia Group will continue its international expansion, including destinations such as Miami. The arrival of Solana in Marbella and the rest of Spain follows the agreement between Juvia Group and Pont Hospitality, a company specializing in the development and management of high-level gastronomic concepts in reference hotels. With the opening of Solana, the ME Marbella hotel, which was inaugurated this summer, now offers a gastronomic selection that also includes the restaurants Barlume and La Terraza del Med. The three brands will begin operating progressively during the summer and will be managed by Pont Hospitality, which will also handle the events, banquets, bars, and pools of the hotel located in Puerto Banús. "At Pont Hospitality, we aim to redefine the food and beverage offerings of the world's most iconic hotels. To do this, we can only rely on top-tier partners who share this special vision. Having the collaboration and trust of Juvia Group for the opening of the first Solana in the world in such an iconic hotel as ME Marbella is the best example of the quality and sophistication we aim to achieve," states the CEO and founder of the firm, Francisco Arocha.
