The complete guide

The Golf Valley of Marbella

Known as the Golf Valley of Marbella, Nueva Andalucía has earned its reputation as one of the most desirable residential areas on the Costa del Sol. Located just inland from Puerto Banús, the neighbourhood combines luxury villas, modern apartments, renowned golf courses, international schools and an exceptional lifestyle — making it a first choice for buyers relocating to Marbella.

Unlike many areas that focus on either holiday homes or permanent living, Nueva Andalucía offers the best of both worlds. Families appreciate the schools, green surroundings and everyday convenience, while investors are drawn by strong rental demand and consistent long-term values. Golfers live minutes from Spain's most respected championship courses, and Puerto Banús is only a few minutes away.
