This apartment in Marbella's Sunset residential complex offers a completed 2024 four-bedroom property spanning 194 square metres. Situated on the Artola dunes, a UNESCO-declared Natural Monument, the property combines elevated positioning with Mediterranean Sea views. The complex consists of only 14 properties, providing exclusivity within Marbella's urban environment. Features include state-of-the-art Siemens appliances, underfloor heating through aerothermal energy, and two underground parking spaces. The location offers practical access to beaches, amenities, and transport links while maintaining privacy through its protected natural setting.
This Marbella property sits within the premium segment of the local market, with pricing exceeding that of comparable developments such as Mare in Marbella (from €1,510,000) and The List Rio Real (from €1,890,000). While Soul Marbella Sunlife approaches similar pricing levels (from €1,943,000), this completed 2024 property offers immediate availability without construction delays. The location on protected Artola dunes distinguishes it from more densely developed urban projects, providing a natural buffer absent in many central Marbella developments. When compared to newer projects still in development phases, this apartment eliminates completion risks and provides certainty regarding final specifications. The combination of four bedrooms and three bathrooms represents a more spacious configuration than many apartments in this price range, offering greater flexibility for families or those requiring guest accommodation.
