This two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is situated in an established resort in Nueva Andalucía, within the Marbella municipality of Málaga province. The property measures 76 m² of living space, was completed in 2005 and is key-ready. It occupies a third-floor position with a west-facing orientation and views over the communal swimming pool. The resort includes two swimming pools, tropical gardens, tennis courts, a restaurant and café, a children's playground, 24-hour security and concierge services, and underground parking. The asking price is fixed at €499,000. Puerto Banús marina lies approximately 1.0 km away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in Nueva Andalucía, a residential urbanisation between Marbella town centre (7 km straight-line) and Puerto Banús marina (1.0 km straight-line). The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away as the crow flies, while several golf courses, including Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km, surround the area.
The layout suits a small household or a second-home buyer: two bedrooms, two bathrooms including an en-suite to the principal bedroom, an open-plan kitchen with lounge, a covered terrace overlooking the pool, a utility room off the kitchen, fitted wardrobes, air conditioning (hot and cold) and a lift serving the third floor.
This is not a new-build project. The apartment was completed in 2005 within an established resort and is available key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. No construction phase, off-plan payments or indicative delivery dates apply; the condition is described as good, with light use reported by the seller.
The property offers 76 m² of living space with two bedrooms, which limits capacity for larger households. There is no private pool; swimming facilities are communal. No private garden belongs to the apartment; outdoor space consists of the covered terrace. The building dates from 2005, so the finish reflects that period rather than current new-build standards.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a lock-up-and-leave second home will find the resort structure, 24-hour security, concierge, on-site restaurant, underground parking, aligned with infrequent occupation. A buyer planning year-round residence benefits from the two-bathroom layout, the utility room and the density of daily amenities within 2 km. Investors considering rental use can point to the location between Puerto Banús and the golf courses of Nueva Andalucía, a district with strong seasonal demand given 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 beds in the wider area. Small families with one child can use the second bedroom, the children's pool and the playground, though larger families will find two bedrooms and 76 m² limiting. Buyers who want morning sun on the terrace should note the west-facing orientation: light arrives from early afternoon onwards, which suits evening-oriented outdoor living but not breakfast in full sun. The property is less suitable for buyers seeking a private pool, a private garden or a contemporary new-build finish, since the communal facilities and the 2005 construction define what is on offer. Finally, buyers who prefer walkable beach access should account for the 2.6 km straight-line distance to the sea, which in practice means a short drive or a longer walk.
The apartment was completed in 2005 and is reported by the seller to have been rarely used, remaining in very good condition. In practical terms, this means the interiors reflect early-2000s Spanish resort standards rather than current new-build specifications: fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen connected to the lounge, and a covered terrace accessed from the living area. Climate control consists of air conditioning units providing both hot and cold air, which handles summer cooling and mild-winter heating without a central system. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, and a separate guest bathroom serves the rest of the home. The utility room off the kitchen is a functional addition that keeps laundry out of sight. The third-floor position is served by a lift, and the block is part of a resort with underground parking, which protects the vehicle from sun and reduces summer heat build-up. On the communal side, the resort's tropical gardens are described as maintained, and the on-site facilities, two swimming pools, a children's pool, tennis courts, playground, restaurant and café, are managed as part of the community, with 24-hour security and concierge presence. Buyers should budget for normal due diligence on a twenty-year-old property: inspection of the air conditioning units, checking of the terrace waterproofing and confirmation of community fees, none of which are specified in the available data.
The apartment carries a fixed asking price of €499,000, this is an existing resale property, not a new-build project with a price list. The price reflects a completed, key-ready home in an established resort with communal facilities, 24-hour security and underground parking included in the setting. Buyers comparing against new-build alternatives should note that comparable new developments elsewhere on the coast start from lower figures (from €205,000 in Mijas, from €269,950 in Torre del Mar, from €321,000 in Estepona), but those are typically off-plan purchases with delivery dates still ahead, whereas this home can be occupied immediately after completion of the purchase process. Availability is immediate, subject to the property remaining on the market.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around the resort setting. Mornings can begin on the west-facing covered terrace, which receives afternoon and evening sun rather than morning light, a practical detail for residents who value late-day outdoor use. The open-plan kitchen flows into the lounge, and the principal bedroom has its own bathroom, which reduces morning congestion for two-person households. The second bathroom serves guests and the second bedroom. A utility room just off the kitchen houses laundry equipment outside the main living area. Within the resort, residents have two swimming pools set in maintained tropical gardens, a children's pool and playground, several tennis courts, and a restaurant and café on site, so basic leisure and dining needs are met without leaving the grounds. Underground parking removes the daily search for a street space. The lift makes the third-floor position accessible without stairs. Outside the resort, the immediate district of Nueva Andalucía is a well-serviced urbanisation: within a 2 km radius the area counts 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, so routine errands, a coffee, a prescription, cash withdrawals, are all within short reach. Puerto Banús marina lies about 1.0 km away as the crow flies, which places marina-side dining and people-watching within practical walking or short-drive distance for evening outings.
Nueva Andalucía functions as a mature residential district rather than a seasonal enclave. The data supports this: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools serve the wider area, 5 health centres operate nearby, and the amenity count within 2 km includes 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies and 4 banks. This is infrastructure for permanent residents, not only holiday visitors. The tourism footprint is nonetheless substantial, 52 hotels and 12,781 beds, which means the area is noticeably busier in July and August and quieter outside the main season. Public transport covers the district with 10 lines and 50 stops, so basic mobility without a car is possible, though most residents in this part of the coast use a vehicle for beach trips, golf and shopping. The nearest beach lies 2.6 km away in a straight line; the terrain is essentially flat, with a gradient of only 0.2% to the sea, so the walk or ride is level. Puerto Banús marina at 1.0 km straight-line is the closest landmark, followed by the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km. Housing activity in the area is considerable at 4,743 transactions per year, indicating a liquid resale market.
The map shows the apartment's position in Nueva Andalucía: Puerto Banús marina is the nearest landmark at about 1 km, with Marbella town 7 km to the east. Distances shown are straight-line; road routes are longer. The golf-course belt, three beaches and the local amenities cluster are all visible within a few kilometres of the pin.

Within the Costa del Sol, Nueva Andalucía occupies a middle position between Marbella town (7 km straight-line) and Puerto Banús on its doorstep (1.0 km). Málaga city and its airport lie 54 km and roughly 45 km straight-line respectively to the east, while Algeciras sits 59 km to the west, so the location is central to the western Costa del Sol corridor. The district is known for its concentration of golf courses and its mix of permanent residents and seasonal visitors. Compared with Marbella's old town, the setting is more resort-oriented; compared with Puerto Banús itself, it is quieter and more residential.
The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km as the crow flies, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km, all reachable by car in a few minutes. Puerto Deportivo José Banus marina is 1.0 km straight-line, and two further marinas sit at 5.3 km and 6.7 km. Marbella town centre is 7 km straight-line. Golf is the defining nearby recreation: The Range golf lessons at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km. Airports: Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) approximately 45 km straight-line and Gibraltar (GIB) approximately 52 km straight-line, giving a choice of two international gateways. Electric-vehicle owners can use the Marbella Supercharger at 2.3 km. Public transport operates with 10 lines and 50 stops in the area, and the flat terrain makes local cycling practical. A car remains the most convenient mode for beach, golf and airport trips; actual road distances are longer than the straight-line figures quoted.

The climate data shows average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coldest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 19.2°C, a classic mild Mediterranean profile. The swimming season lasts about six months, the period during which sea water stays at or above 20°C, roughly May through October. The elevation is a mere 10 m above sea level with a gradient to the beach of 0.2%, meaning the terrain is flat throughout the immediate area: no steep walks between home, shops and the coast. For daily living, this translates into hot summers where the apartment's air conditioning and pool access matter, and winters that are mild enough that outdoor terrace use continues through much of the year, particularly with the west-facing orientation capturing afternoon warmth in the cooler months. Rainfall is concentrated outside the summer half-year, consistent with the region's pattern. The immediate green environment consists of the resort's tropical gardens and the golf-course belt of Nueva Andalucía rather than wild nature; the mountains behind Marbella are visible from parts of the district but lie beyond the available data range.

Beach access is provided by three sandy options within 3.5 km: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km straight-line), Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km). Each is a short drive on flat terrain. Golf is the strongest recreational card: three courses within about 3 km, The Range (1.9 km), Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.3 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (3.1 km), place the apartment in the heart of the Nueva Andalucía golf valley. Sports facilities nearby include Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km), a climbing wall at Rocodromo (3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). Within the resort itself, residents have two swimming pools, a children's pool, tennis courts and a playground, which reduces dependence on external facilities for daily exercise and family leisure. Marina-based recreation starts at Puerto Deportivo José Banus, 1.0 km away, where boat trips, water sports and waterfront dining concentrate. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km offers a nearby walking destination with coastal views.

At a fixed asking price of €499,000, this resale apartment sits above the entry price points of current new-build comparables on the eastern and western Costa del Sol: Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000. Those figures, however, are off-plan starting prices for new construction, typically for the smallest units and with delivery still ahead; this apartment is a completed, key-ready home that can be occupied directly. The price gap therefore reflects two different products rather than a like-for-like comparison. What the buyer pays for here is location maturity: Nueva Andalucía is a consolidated district with 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider area, five health centres, dense daily amenities within 2 km, and a resale market turning over 4,743 transactions per year, indicators of a liquid, established neighbourhood rather than a developing one. The immediate surroundings also differ from the comparables: Torre del Mar and Mijas are further from the Marbella, Puerto Banús core, while Estepona, though on the same coast, lies well west of it. Here, the marina at Puerto Banús is 1.0 km away, Marbella town 7 km, and three golf courses within 3.1 km, a combination that defines the local market segment. Against other properties within Nueva Andalucía itself, the offer is defined by its resort infrastructure: 24-hour security, concierge, two pools, tennis courts and underground parking, bundled into a community setting rather than a standalone block. Buyers weighing this against new builds should also weigh timing: a new-build purchase typically means 18–36 months of waiting, stage payments and construction risk, whereas this transaction completes and hands over keys. The trade-off is a 2005 finish and 76 m² of space, against the immediacy and the established setting. Median income in the province of €16,450 per year provides regional economic context, and the two-airport access, Málaga approximately 45 km and Gibraltar approximately 52 km straight-line, adds flexibility for international owners.
