For buyers seeking the sweet spot between lifestyle and long-term value, Nueva Andalucía continues to stand out as one of Marbella’s most sought-after residential areas. Bordering the chic yachting marina of Puerto Banús, it offers a sophisticated yet relaxed alternative to Marbella’s glamour, where leafy streets, mountain views and prestigious golf courses are the basis for everyday living.
With a healthy budget of €750,000 to €1 million, the options are both diverse and plentiful, from sleek modern apartments in gated communities to spacious townhouses with family appeal and even the occasional villa that offers a touch of standalone luxury.
Here we explore what your investment secures in this desirable suburb and why Nueva Andalucía continues to attract both homebuyers and investors looking for something special.
Apartments and penthouses: comfort with convenience
Contemporary apartments in this price range deliver impressive value, particularly in well-kept developments with pools, gyms and manicured communal spaces. Expect high-end finishes, open-plan layouts, generous terraces and often panoramic views of the golf course, mountains or sea.
For example, around €795,000 will secure a stylish two-bedroom apartment in a development such as Albatross Hill, with ample indoor and outdoor space and access to resort-style amenities. At the upper end of the range, penthouses with rooftop solariums and private plunge pools add a layer of exclusivity. These are ideal for buyers who prioritise modern design, lock-up-and-leave convenience and rental potential during the high season.
Townhouses: space, privacy and community appeal
For those needing more internal space or room to grow, a townhouse in Nueva Andalucía represents an appealing choice. With budgets of around €750,000 to €850,000, it’s possible to find three- or four-bedroom properties in established communities such as Los Naranjos de Marbella. These homes may include gardens or roof terraces, making them popular with families or those planning longer stays.
Architecturally, townhouses range in style from traditional Andalucian designs with warm façades and terracotta roofs to crisp modern builds with minimalist interiors. Many are part of gated communities with shared pools, making them particularly attractive to international buyers looking for security and a sense of community.
Villas: the rare opportunity
While detached villas in Nueva Andalucía are increasingly pushing past the €1 million threshold, there are still a few rare opportunities just within range, especially if you’re open to renovation or smaller plots. Detached houses in this price range are few and far between, however, so be prepared to act quickly if one does come on the market.
At the top end of this budget, a villa will offer a private pool and garden. Keep an eye out for locations such as up-and-coming La Campana. These properties offer independence and scope to personalise, which can be appealing for buyers seeking a long-term base or second home with character.
Alternatively, plots in need of redevelopment occasionally surface, providing a chance to create something bespoke in one of Marbella’s most prized neighbourhoods.
Why Nueva Andalucía?
Living in Nueva Andalucía means enjoying a peaceful residential atmosphere while staying close to everything that makes the Marbella lifestyle so desirable. The area is home to some of the region’s most prestigious golf courses, including Los Naranjos, Aloha Golf and Las Brisas, as well as reputable international schools, tennis academies and wellness centres.
Just a short drive brings you to Puerto Banús, where designer boutiques, restaurants and yacht-lined promenades offer a different kind of buzz. Yet back in the leafy streets of Nueva Andalucía, there’s a sense of peace and security that many find hard to match.
Rental and resale potential
Homes in this price range tend to perform well on the rental market, particularly during the summer season when demand peaks for high-quality accommodation near the coast and golf courses. Properties with good outdoor space, modern interiors and proximity to amenities are especially appealing to short-term tenants. For long-term investors, the ongoing popularity of Nueva Andalucía among international buyers ensures solid resale prospects and a degree of resilience in shifting markets.
