This is a completed 125 m² apartment (100 m² usable) in Campos de Guadalmina, Guadalmina Alta, within the San Pedro de Alcántara area of Marbella. Built in 2000, the property has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a 25 m² glazed terrace with a Lumon system, and a southeast orientation overlooking communal gardens and pool. Sold fully furnished with a renovated kitchen and updated bathrooms, it includes air conditioning, individual heating, lift access, a parking space and a storage room. The location sits inland of the coast by roughly 2.2 km, surrounded by golf courses, with shops and services within walking distance.
Against current new-build supply on the Costa del Sol, this resale apartment occupies a different market segment. Comparable new developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000) offer lower entry prices, but those projects sit further from the Marbella, Benahavís belt and typically offer smaller units at those price points. At €463,000 for 125 m² built, this property prices around €3,700 per m², above eastern Costa del Sol new-build averages, reflecting the Marbella address and the established Guadalmina setting rather than construction novelty. The trade-off is age: a 2000 building with partial renovations versus developer-delivered specifications, modern energy ratings and structural warranties on new stock. What the location supplies instead is maturity, golf courses built and operating, a year-round service base of shops, schools and medical facilities, and an urbanisation with two decades of established community. Transaction volume of roughly 800 in the local market indicates steady liquidity for resale in this belt. Buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives are effectively choosing between Marbella-location resale with immediate availability and no construction risk, versus lower-priced new construction further east with longer timelines and early-phase surroundings that may take years to consolidate. The included parking, storage, furniture and renovated kitchen also narrow the effective price gap once fit-out costs of new-build purchases are counted.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Guadalmina Alta is a residential district west of San Pedro de Alcántara, set slightly inland from the coastline. Beaches such as Playa Isdabe, Playa Atalaya and Playa de San Pedro lie approximately 2.2 km away. The immediate surroundings are urban with amenities on foot, including a supermarket at 720 m and a pharmacy at 734 m. Two golf courses sit within 2.4 km.
The apartment functions as a turnkey residence: fully furnished, with two bedrooms, an ensuite bathroom, fitted wardrobes, marble flooring and a glazed terrace usable throughout the year. Communal facilities include a swimming pool and gardens. A parking space and storage room are included, which addresses practical needs for permanent or seasonal living.
This is not a new-build project. The building dates from 2000 (indicative) and the construction status is completed. The kitchen has been renovated and both bathrooms updated. Buyers should expect a building of this age rather than developer-delivered new construction, with corresponding characteristics in terms of construction standards and energy performance.
The property is a middle-floor apartment, so there are no private garden or private pool facilities; the pool and garden are communal. It has two bedrooms and 100 m² usable surface, which limits capacity for larger households. There is no private outdoor ground space, and the terrace, while sizable at 25 m², is glazed rather than open. No sea view is listed.
This property fits several recognisable situations. First, a couple or small family seeking a move-in-ready home in an established area, where the furnished condition, ensuite bathroom and communal pool reduce the work required after purchase. Second, buyers prioritising golf access: El Campanario at 1.5 km and El Paraíso at 2.4 km place two courses within a short drive or cycle. Third, seasonal residents who want year-round usability, the glazed Lumon terrace and individual heating extend comfortable use beyond the summer months, relevant given the five-month swimming season. Fourth, buyers who value walkability over frontline beach position: shops, pharmacy and restaurants are on foot, while beaches are a 2.2 km trip that most residents make by car or bicycle. It is less suited to households needing three or more bedrooms, or buyers requiring a private pool or direct sea views, those requirements fall outside what this unit offers. Buyers seeking new-build specifications and warranty structures should also note the 2000 construction date. For those combining permanent residence with proximity to international schools (The International School of Estepona at 2.6 km), the location supports family use. Finally, the included parking and storage in a lift-served building suits buyers planning longer stays or full-time relocation.
The apartment reflects a 2000-built standard that has been partially upgraded. The kitchen has been renovated and both bathrooms updated; listing photographs show tiled bathroom finishes with bathtub and pedestal sink, consistent with a refurbishment of that period rather than a contemporary designer fit-out. Flooring is marble throughout, a common specification in Marbella-area buildings of this generation and a durable surface under regular use. Fitted wardrobes are present in the bedrooms, and one bathroom is ensuite. Climate control is twofold: air conditioning for cooling and individual heating, meaning the unit is not dependent on a communal heating system. The 25 m² terrace is fitted with a Lumon glazed system, a retractable or fixed glazing solution that extends terrace usability into cooler months and reduces wind and dust exposure. The property is sold fully furnished, which affects the purchase calculation: the effective cost of occupation is lower than buying unfurnished, but the style and condition of the included furniture should be assessed during viewing. Storage is provided via a separate storage room, and a parking space is included. The communal areas, pool, gardens, playground, are described as well kept, though their maintenance standard should be verified on site, as should the building's community fees and any planned works. No energy performance certificate rating was supplied in the available data.
The asking price is €463,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment of 125 m² built (100 m² usable), equating to roughly €3,700 per built m². The price includes furniture, a renovated kitchen, updated bathrooms, a parking space and a storage room. As a resale property in a 2000-built urbanisation, no payment structure or off-plan phases apply; the transaction is a direct purchase of a completed unit. Price variation within comparable stock in Guadalmina Alta depends on floor level, orientation and refurbishment state.
Daily life in Campos de Guadalmina centres on a low-effort, walkable routine. The supermarket and pharmacy are within a ten-minute walk, and the wider Guadalmina shopping area covers most daily needs. Within a two-kilometre radius there are 31 restaurants, 14 cafés, 11 banks and 12 pharmacies, which means the area functions year-round rather than only in holiday season. The urbanisation itself is oriented around a communal pool and gardens, with a playground visible in the complex, suggesting a mixed community of permanent residents and seasonal occupants. The southeast orientation places morning and midday sun on the glazed terrace, which with the Lumon glazing can be used across seasons, as a sunroom in cooler months and a ventilated terrace in summer. The flat terrain towards the beach (average slope of 1.7%) makes walking and cycling practical. A car is useful but not strictly necessary for all trips; the area is served by 8 public transport lines with around 50 stops. The golf environment defines much of the local character: El Campanario is 1.5 km away and El Paraíso 2.4 km. For households with children, there is one primary school within the radius and international schools such as The International School of Estepona at 2.6 km. The nearest hospital is 3.4 km away. The overall rhythm is that of an established residential district adjacent to San Pedro de Alcántara, quieter than the coastal strip, but not isolated.
Guadalmina Alta sits between San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona, an established residential belt characterised by golf courses and low-rise urbanisations rather than resort density. Daily errands are concentrated within a short radius: supermarket at 720 m, pharmacy at 734 m, and 31 restaurants plus 14 cafés within two kilometres. The hospital is 3.4 km away, reachable in under ten minutes by car. The area recorded roughly 800 property transactions, indicating an active but not overheated local market with steady turnover. Public transport is available via 8 lines and some 50 stops, connecting towards Marbella and Estepona, though frequency is moderate and most residents keep a car. Traffic on the A-7 and AP-7 coastal corridors is the main variable, heavier in July and August. Outside the summer months the district is noticeably calmer, with a resident rather than tourist population. Elevation is 41 m above sea level with a flat 1.7% slope towards the coast, so the walk to Playa Atalaya or Playa de San Pedro (2.2–2.3 km) is physically easy, taking 25–30 minutes on foot.
The map shows the apartment's position in Guadalmina Alta, set back approximately 2.2 km from the coastline between San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona. Note the cluster of golf courses to the north and west, the beaches to the south, and Puerto Banús to the east, a Mediterranean layout where the sea, the fairways and everyday amenities are all within a short radius.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Guadalmina Alta occupies the western edge of the Marbella municipality, bordering Benahavís and Estepona. San Pedro de Alcántara, the nearest town centre, lies a short drive east; Estepona is to the west; and Benahavís village is a few kilometres north. This places the property in the established "golf valley" belt between Marbella and Estepona, closer to everyday services than inland Benahavís but quieter than central Marbella or Puerto Banús, the latter about 4.9 km away. The position trades beach proximity for greenery and space.
Beaches: Playa Isdabe, Playa Atalaya and Playa de San Pedro all lie around 2.2–2.3 km away, a five-minute drive. Golf: El Campanario at 1.5 km and El Paraíso Golf Club at 2.4 km. Marinas: Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 4.9 km. Airports: Gibraltar (GIB) at approximately 48 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) at approximately 50 km straight-line; driving time to AGP is typically around 45–55 minutes depending on traffic. Supermarket at 720 m and hospital at 3.4 km. EV charging: the nearest public point is 2.0 km away, with Tesla Superchargers in Estepona (5.6 km) and Marbella (7.7 km).

The climate data points to a typical western Costa del Sol profile: an average annual temperature of 19.1°C with seasonal averages between 12°C and 26°C, and approximately 3,856 sunshine hours per year, a high figure by European standards. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months, roughly June through October. The property sits at 41 m above sea level with a 1.7% average slope to the coast, meaning no significant climbing on the route to the beach and limited wind sheltering compared with elevated properties. Winters are mild enough that the glazed Lumon terrace and individual heating allow comfortable use of the full 125 m² year-round. The nearest natural viewpoints, such as Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos at 4.3 km, indicate accessible green and coastal walking terrain within a short drive.

The three nearest beaches, Playa Isdabe, Playa Atalaya and Playa de San Pedro, lie roughly equidistant at 2.2–2.3 km and form the standard coastal options for residents; Playa de San Pedro is the largest and most serviced of the three. Golf is the dominant recreation locally: El Campanario Golf Course is 1.5 km away and El Paraíso Golf Club 2.4 km, with the El Paraíso clubhouse at 2.7 km. Sports facilities include the Apolo sports centre at 1.0 km and pool facilities at 1.4 km. Puerto Deportivo José Banús, at 4.9 km, provides marina-based recreation, dining and boat services. Within the urbanisation itself, the communal pool, gardens and playground cover day-to-day outdoor use without leaving the complex.
