Flying to Malaga Our patient coordinators will suggest airlines from your country to Spain. From Agave Clinic to Malaga international airport is only a 25 minutes taxi drive. More than 60 airlines fly to Malaga. We’ll pick you up from the airport and bring you back for free.
About 40% of the population of Marbella is of non-Spanish origin so you’ll find English-speaking people everywhere.
Hotels in Marbella We will help you find your preferred accommodations nearby and assist with reservations. Room service, internet and other amenities are available upon request. Prices may vary according to the season.
Aftercare in Marbella Our personal care and attention continues long after your procedure. During the first week post-op, you will have daily revisions in Agave Clinic. Once you return home, we hope to arrange for 3-month, 6-month and 1-year evaluations with the surgeons. It is highly recommended to our surgical patients to come with a companion; patients who travel alone may be recommended an extended hospital stay or nursing care in the hotel (additional fees involved).
Consultations and check-ups abroad Each month we have a day of consultations and check-ups in the UK (London) and in the Netherlands (Dordrecht). You can make an appointment by contacting Agave Clinic in Marbella. If you’re interested in dental implants and have a panoramic x-ray it would be very useful to bring it with you.

Hotels in Marbella
A hotel in the historic city center with room service, internet connection and a fridge/coffeemaker in the room are convenient, but not always available. Agave Clinic´s patient coordinators will help you with reservations if necessary, and make recommendations. Prices can range between 40 – 200 Euros per day.
Clothes and Weather
Marbella is very hot and humid in the summer and warm year-round. In the autumn, winter and spring you may need a jacket in the evenings. Although it rarely rains, it is possible between October and April. Bring a hat to protect your face from the suns rays.
The Hospital
You will have 24-hour care during your overnight stay in the hospital, which is next door to Agave Clinic. English-speaking attendants are also available. If desired, additional nights in the hospital are possible although not recommended by doctors. There is an additional fee of 250 Euros per night.
Avoid Boredom
Bring personal entertainment items such as a laptop, music, books, journals, crosswords, etc. The first few days after surgery you will probably spend most of the time in your room.
After-Care
You will have daily visits in the clinic for after-care. Medications will be provided at your pre-op consultation. However, it may be helpful to have a stroll around the neighbourhood before surgery to locate the nearest pharmacy and supermarket. It is a good idea to purchase beforehand any toiletries, food, drink, moist towelettes, or antiseptics to care for your incision points while at the hotel. The first 48 hours post-op you may not feel up to shopping for necessities.
Going Out
At the end of your stay, when you are more likely to want to get out a bit, we have a list of possible activities you could do. Choose a hotel within walking distance of the old centre and the seafront, where most of the restaurants are. A leisurely walk for fresh air and sun (bring a sunhat) or a bit of shopping will be easier from the city center. Agave Clinic is a 15 minute stroll from the old city center. We will provide you with a local map.
