Marbella on the southern coast of Spain is where the rich, famous and fabulous congregate to engage in all manner of sinful activities away from the prying lenses of the paparazzi. After all, the area isn’t dubbed the ‘Costa del Crime’ for nothing. Sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll are all out on display in Marbella, from the alluring bikini babes strewn across its palm-fringed beaches to the hedonism that goes on in its decadent nightclubs. It’s no wonder celebrities flock here in their droves; Bruce Willis has been spotted mingling with a bevy of beautiful women in its bars, Britney Spears has been snapped ordering a bottle of vodka in one of its most famous nightclubs, and heartthrob Antonio Banderas and his wife Melanie Griffith even have a home here. a bachelor’s paradise for those single and free to mingle, Marbella has it all; glamour, wealth and power.

Angela Kennett, from Aylesbury, Bucks, returned to her home in Spain to find she had forgotten her keys

Angela Kennett, from Aylesbury, Bucks, returned to her home in Spain to find she had forgotten her keys. She scaled a porch to try to reach the first-floor window of her £400,000 flat, but it gave way and crashed to the ground as she climbed across it. It is thought she died after being hit on the head by a wooden beam. Angela turned 27 on Sunday. The latest tragedy happened in an upmarket residential neighbourhood near Marbella, along the coast from Nerja. A neighbour alerted cops after finding the victim shortly after 10am on Monday. She was lying among the debris of the pergola with blood streaming from a head wound.
Angela was already dead by the time police and paramedics arrived. It is believed she had just returned from her birthday party with friends when she fell. A neighbour, who asked not to be named, said today: "We heard the boyfriend screaming and ran outside to see him standing over the girl. "We called emergency services immediately. He was in a terrible state crying and shouting. "He was in too bad a way to tell us what happened. It is an awful tragedy. She was a very nice person, she always used to say hello whenever she saw us. "I haven't been able to get the image of her lying there out of my head since it happened." A police source said it was not the first time Angela had climbed across the pergola after going out and forgetting her keys. The couple's house is set in a gated community with a swimming pool, and has a small garden with a sun terrace. A post mortem due today was expected to confirm she had died of a blow to the head after a wooden beam fell on top of her as the structure collapsed. Friends of Angela, thought to have worked at American Express, have paid tribute to her on her Facebook page. Jessica Wilson said: "You bought such fun times at AMEX. You will be sadly missed. "

Puerto Banús

A trip to Marbella wouldn’t be a trip to Marbella without visiting this legendary port. Dubbed the ‘Port of Abuse’ by many of its heavy-drinking insiders, Puerto Banús is named after its designer (and legendary playboy) Jose Banús, who can be credited for single-handedly putting Marbella on the map. Row after row of designer shops, hip restaurants and trendy bars, the port is where the town’s super-rich moor up their megayachts and pose for their adoring public on the decks. Aside from the boats, the one-way road is like a supercar showroom, too, with every high-end marque you can think of polished to perfection and parked up outside hip and happening places. Whether you visit the port to inflict some damage on your credit card, to dine on fresh seafood or to dance like its 1969, you’re sure to have yourself a very good time. Highly recommended is an Indonesian dinner and rum cocktails at the nearby Trader Vic’s, followed by drinks at the world-famous Sinatra’s bar, which is like a who’s who of the movie industry on a Friday and Saturday night. After that, you can move onto the nearby Suite nightclub, hidden underneath the very posh Puente Romano Hotel.
