The E-MAGAZINE of Marbella Hills Homes

Those familiar with Marbella will know San Pedro Alcántara as the lively, very Andalusian little town that falls within the Marbella municipal area and provides a local hub for residents of the luxurious residential areas surrounding it. But San Pedro and its immediate surroundings are also a fine lifestyle destination in their own right, with lovely suburbs and beautiful homes to choose from – all surrounded by golf, facing beaches and within minutes of Puerto Banús, Marbella town, Benahavis and Estepona. In fact, it’s a great location!

With competition so intense for the classic top locations in Marbella, a lot of buyers have been recently focusing on newly up-and-coming residential areas. Prominent among these is the New Golden Mile, the coastal area between Guadalmina and Estepona town, which has been growing apace and now ranks among the most exciting property and investment zones on the Costa del Sol.

The luxury property market in Marbella is riding high on strong demand for the lifestyle and properties it offers. The areas most in vogue are the evergreen classics such as the Golden Mile and Nueva Andalucía, where the demand for quality contemporary homes – in particular villas – currently outstrips supply.

China and Russia are the two countries in which the permit has been the most popular by far, although other countries also feature.
