Servimedia directly documented Antonio Banderas at Hotel Byblos on August 1, 1995, including a private family breakfast, while Condé Nast Traveler independently reports that he trained there with a fencing master for The Mask of Zorro. The evidence proves visits, not an overnight stay.
Antonio Banderas visited Hotel Byblos in Mijas, the Costa del Sol property that was later renovated and reopened as La Zambra Resort. A contemporaneous Servimedia report places him at the hotel on August 1, 1995, while Condé Nast Traveler separately reports that he used the property for fencing training connected to The Mask of Zorro.
