Casa La Mariposa Opens as an Ultra-Exclusive Wellness Retreat in Marbella
Buchinger Wilhelmi Marbella has opened Casa La Mariposa, an exclusive private wellness retreat. The villa once belonged to Maria Buchinger, daughter of fasting pioneer Dr Otto Buchinger. Now, it offers tailored health programmes in a luxurious setting for up to four guests at a time.
The retreat blends medically supervised fasting with personalised nutrition plans. Guests can opt for therapeutic fasting or a regenerative diet during their stay. Each visit includes a private nurse, medical consultations, and bespoke dietary advice.
The property was originally Maria Buchinger’s home, where she developed morning yoga, meditation, and structured wellness routines. These traditions now form part of the retreat’s daily programme. Unlike many medical wellness centres, Casa La Mariposa welcomes children and pets. Families can also request access to the Marbella Club Kids Club for additional activities. The villa itself features a heated outdoor pool, treatment rooms, a garden sauna, and a private gym. A dedicated yoga and Pilates studio completes the facilities. Designed for small groups, the retreat allows guests to bring friends, family, or staff. The entire residence is available for exclusive use, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout the stay.
Casa La Mariposa combines medical expertise with a homely, flexible approach to wellness. The retreat’s facilities and personalised care aim to support both fasting and dietary programmes. Guests can also enjoy the added convenience of bringing along children or pets.
