La Fonda Hotel, nestled in the heart of Marbella, is gearing up for a month filled with seasonal charm, culinary surprises, and unique celebrations. With the arrival of a new head chef, upcoming full moon festivities, and a tribute to its rich history of game dishes, La Fonda invites guests to experience all that October has to offer.

A New Chef Teased for October 20th
La Fonda is proud to announce that a new chef has joined their culinary team. While the hotel is keeping the chef’s name a secret until October 20th—celebrating International Chef Day—this addition is highly anticipated by regular patrons and food enthusiasts alike. Guests can expect inventive menus and an elevated dining experience to match the hotel’s prestigious Relais & Châteaux reputation.
Full Moon Festivities
From October 17th to 19th, guests will be treated to the beauty of the last full moon of the year. To mark this special occasion, La Fonda will embrace the magic of the moonlight, creating an enchanting atmosphere perfect for unwinding under the stars. Whether enjoying a cocktail at the Sky Bar or strolling through the hotel’s charming patios, the experience promises to be unforgettable.

Game Season Returns
In mid-October, La Fonda will revive its rich culinary history with the launch of game season. Running from mid-October to mid-November, this tribute to the hotel’s origins will feature a range of expertly crafted dishes highlighting traditional game meats. This seasonal offering nods to the heritage of the original Fonda, which was renowned for its game specialties.

Halloween Decorations & Festive Treats
La Fonda will also get into the Halloween spirit with its annual autumnal decor. Pumpkins, leaves, and an array of seasonal decorations will transform the hotel into a cozy autumn retreat. In keeping with the theme, the hotel’s bar will offer a specially crafted Halloween cocktail, while the restaurant will present a limited-edition dessert inspired by the spooky holiday.

October at La Fonda Hotel promises to be a time of culinary innovation, historical homage, and festive flair. Whether you’re visiting to celebrate the new chef’s arrival, marvel at the full moon, or indulge in game season, La Fonda invites you to make the most of this vibrant month.
