Helen Stanley returns with her Artisan Market & Art Fair at Hacienda del Mar Meliá Collection

Helen Stanley returns to Hacienda del Mar Meliá Collection with her popular Champagne Lifestyle events. Visitors can enjoy a fresh series of carefully curated shopping experiences every Saturday starting April 25 with her Artisan Market & Art Fair.

Elegant setting for quality artisan finds

Hacienda del Mar, a Meliá Collection hotel, sits on the New Golden Mile between Estepona and Marbella. This five-star beachfront property provides beautiful gardens and a sophisticated atmosphere perfect for browsing unique items. Attendees can wander among stalls from 11am until 5pm in a relaxed environment that encourages discovery rather than rushed purchases.

Curated selection of fashion and crafts

Helen Stanley personally chooses every market stall participant to maintain high standards of originality and workmanship. Those perusing stalls can discover handcrafted jewellery, fashion pieces, original artwork, home accessories and thoughtful gifts created by talented makers from Spain and further afield. Many items feature distinctive designs unavailable in ordinary retail outlets.

Weekly opportunity for locals and visitors

This new weekly Saturday Designer and Artisan Market & Art Fair marks an exciting expansion for Helen on the Costa del Sol. Previous events at venues such as Kempinski Hotel Bahía and La Sala in Puerto Banús have drawn consistent praise for their refined approach. Free entry allows everyone to explore the stalls at leisure, with options for refreshments available on site.

Support for independent creators

Participants gain a prestigious platform to present their work directly to an appreciative audience. Helen Stanley built her reputation by steering clear of conventional flea market formats towards something more polished and enjoyable. Her fashion label, known for embellished accessories inspired by global travels, often features at these gatherings.

Those looking for distinctive purchases or a pleasant day out browsing the best artisanal works Western Costa del Sol has to offer should note the date on their calendars. Saturday, April 25, opens the series at Hacienda del Mar Meliá Collection on the A-7, kilometre 1066, in Estepona. Further dates will continue weekly throughout the season.
