Marbella price data

Open datasets from Marbella Wire, an independent price tracker for Marbella, Spain. Every figure here is published on marbellawire.com first; this dataset is the machine-readable copy, regenerated from the same data files that render the pages. It mirrors the canonical GitHub repository shiftdylson1/marbella-price-data.

Config	What it is	Rows	Canonical page
sunbed-index	High-season price of two sunbeds plus minimum spend at Marbella beach venues, season 2026	8 priced + 4 unpublished	https://marbellawire.com/prices/sunbeds/
chiringuitos	Census of Marbella chiringuitos (beach restaurants) with menu-sourced prices, season 2026	43 venues	https://marbellawire.com/prices/chiringuitos/
beach-clubs	Beach club sunbed, bed and minimum-spend prices, season 2026	14 clubs	https://marbellawire.com/prices/beach-clubs/

All prices are euros; every CSV row carries its unit, source page and licence so a row quoted on its own stays traceable. Empty cell = not published by the venue, never zero and never a guess.

Loading

from datasets import load_dataset
beach_clubs = load_dataset("editorwire11/marbella-price-data", "beach-clubs", split="train")

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/editorwire11/marbella-price-data/beach-clubs/beach-clubs.csv")

Each folder also holds the same data as JSON, a PROVENANCE.md, a COLUMNS.md data dictionary, and (for the censuses) a DATA.md with one anchored section per venue.

Provenance and method

Prices come from venues' own published menus, rate cards and booking systems, never from third-party aggregators; each row links its source. One number in the source is one number here: nothing is estimated or interpolated. A venue that publishes no rate anywhere of its own is listed as unpublished, never estimated.

• Sunbed Index — 8 priced venues + 4 listed as unpublished, season 2026. Last data update 2026-08-11; last per-venue verification 2026-08-11. Prices read from each venue's own website, published rate card, or the booking platform the venue itself sells through (labelled in price_source_via). The files are byte-for-byte copies of the live endpoints https://marbellawire.com/data/sunbed-index.csv and https://marbellawire.com/data/sunbed-index.json, fetched at export time.
• Chiringuito census — 43 published venues (of a 100-venue census) + 5 recorded closures, season 2026. Last data update 2026-07-25; last per-venue verification 2026-08-17. Google listing checked per venue; kept only operating venues with their own website publishing a menu. All euro figures are read from each venue's own published menu (menu_url on every row).
• Beach club census — 14 clubs, season 2026. Last data update 2026-07-24; last per-venue verification 2026-08-17. Prices read from each club's own published rate card or booking system (source_url on every row); sunbed_price and bed_or_vip_price are euros, high season, per day.

Exported from the same data files that render the canonical pages; the export script copies figures only. Editorial text, photographs and Google Places content (ratings, review counts, coordinates) are deliberately not included: the CC BY 4.0 grant covers Marbella Wire's figures, not the site's prose, not venue photos, and not Google's data. Full per-dataset detail is in each folder's PROVENANCE.md.

Updates

Regenerated manually, roughly once a season, from the Marbella Wire data pipeline. The live pages update first; if a figure here disagrees with marbellawire.com, the site is current and this mirror is awaiting its seasonal refresh. Corrections: open an issue on the GitHub repository with a source URL from the venue itself.
