Casa La Mariposa Opens as Marbella's New Luxury Wellness Retreat
Buchinger Wilhelmi Marbella has opened Casa La Mariposa, an exclusive private wellness retreat. Housed in a historic villa, the new facility blends medically supervised fasting with personalised nutrition programmes in a relaxed setting. The retreat occupies the former home of Maria Buchinger, daughter of Dr. Otto Buchinger, who pioneered therapeutic fasting. Many of its wellness practices—like morning yoga and meditation—were first introduced during her time at the property.
The villa has been carefully adapted for modern wellness stays. It now features a heated outdoor pool, treatment rooms, and a garden sauna. Unlike traditional medical retreats, Casa La Mariposa also welcomes children and dogs, offering a more flexible approach. Each booking includes a dedicated on-site nurse, private medical consultations, and tailored nutritional advice. Guests can choose between therapeutic fasting or a regenerative dietary plan. The retreat accommodates up to four participants in the wellness programme, along with accompanying family members.
Casa La Mariposa provides a secluded alternative to standard medical wellness retreats. Its combination of private care, family-friendly policies, and historic surroundings sets it apart. The villa is now available for bookings in Marbella.
