This two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is situated in Los Naranjos de Marbella, a residential development in Nueva Andalucía, west of Marbella. Completed in 2003 and now key-ready, the property offers 121 m² of constructed area, including a 19 m² south-west-facing terrace. The asking price is fixed at €460,000. The development lies within walking distance of Puerto Banús and includes communal gardens, several swimming pools and an on-site commercial centre with a supermarket and restaurants.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in Nueva Andalucía, roughly 7 km from central Marbella and about 1 km from Puerto Deportivo José Banús as the crow flies. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away in a straight line. Golf courses such as Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Magna Marbella Golf are within 3.1 km.
The layout serves a household needing two full bathrooms, an en-suite principal bedroom with direct terrace access, a separate utility room and fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms. The living room connects through patio doors to the covered terrace. Marble flooring and air conditioning are installed throughout, alongside a wood-burning fireplace in the living room.
This is an existing home, not a new-build project. Construction was completed in 2003 and the property is described as key-ready and in excellent condition. There is no construction phase, no staged delivery and no indicative completion date; the buyer can proceed directly to purchase and occupation.
The property is a middle-floor apartment, so there is no private garden, no private pool and no sea view; the outlook is towards the communal gardens. Parking is not listed among the features, and no storage room is mentioned. Buyers seeking a ground-floor unit with direct garden access or a penthouse with a solarium will not find those attributes here.

This apartment suits buyers who want a completed, low-threshold purchase on the Marbella side of the Costa del Sol without managing a construction process. Recognisable situations include: a couple seeking a second home with two full bathrooms so guests or family have independence, with the en-suite principal bedroom providing that separation; a buyer prioritising outdoor living who values afternoon and evening sun on a covered terrace for much of the year; or someone who wants walkable daily amenities, supermarket, restaurants and pharmacy, within the urbanisation itself. Golf players are a natural fit given three courses within about 3 km, including Real Club de Golf Las Brisas. The property also fits those who want proximity to the Puerto Banús marina scene without living in the middle of it; the development is close but set within its own gardens. It is less suited to buyers who require a private pool, a private garden, sea views or designated parking, as none of these form part of the offer. Households relocating permanently will find schooling options in the area, including the British International School at 3.8 km straight-line, and healthcare access through several nearby health centres. Investors should note the fixed resale price and the 2003 construction year when comparing against off-plan alternatives.
The apartment dates from 2003 and is presented in what the listing describes as excellent condition. The material palette is traditional for the period and location: marble flooring throughout the living areas and bedrooms, fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms, and a fully fitted kitchen with a separate utility room, a practical arrangement that keeps laundry appliances out of the kitchen itself. Climate control is twofold: air conditioning throughout the apartment and a wood-burning fireplace in the living room, giving both mechanical cooling for the summer months and a heat source for cooler winter evenings, which in this region average around 12°C monthly. The 19 m² terrace is covered, which extends its usable season and provides shade during peak sun hours, while its south-west orientation captures afternoon and evening light. Large patio doors in both the living room and the principal bedroom create the indoor-outdoor connection typical of Costa del Sol residential design. As a 2003 build, buyers should expect construction standards of that era rather than current new-build specifications; no energy label details, insulation figures or renovation history are provided in the available data, so a technical survey is the appropriate way to verify condition. Communal areas include maintained gardens, several swimming pools and a children's pool, which form part of the shared facilities rather than private amenities.
The asking price is fixed at €460,000 for this existing two-bedroom apartment of 121 m². As a completed resale home rather than a new-build development, no from-prices or unit variation apply: the price refers to one specific property in one specific condition. For context, nearby new-build projects elsewhere on the coast, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), start lower, but those are different locations and product types. The property is key-ready, so purchase can proceed without waiting for construction.
Daily life in Los Naranjos de Marbella revolves around the development's own grounds and the wider Nueva Andalucía urbanisation. The apartment's south-west orientation means the terrace receives afternoon and evening sun, which in practice shapes how the day is used: mornings indoors or around the complex, afternoons on the terrace, and evenings within a short drive or walk of Puerto Banús. The on-site commercial centre with its supermarket removes the need for a car trip for basic shopping, while 69 restaurants, several cafés, three pharmacies and four banks within 2 km cover most everyday needs. The living room, with its fireplace and large patio doors, functions as the interior anchor of the home, extending visually onto the 19 m² terrace. Both bedrooms are doublesized, with the principal bedroom enjoying an en-suite bathroom and its own terrace access, which effectively gives the main occupants a semi-independent wing. As a middle-floor unit, the apartment receives garden views rather than panoramas; the setting is a maintained residential urbanisation with palm trees, communal pools including a children's pool, and a gated entrance. The area is flat, sitting at roughly 10 m above sea level, so walking and cycling to the beach or the marina involve no significant climbs. Out of the summer season, Nueva Andalucía remains a year-round residential area rather than a purely seasonal resort, supported by five health centres in the wider area and 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the region.
Nueva Andalucía sits between Marbella's centre, 7 km away as the crow flies, and the marina of Puerto Banús at roughly 1 km straight-line. This positions residents in a residential urbanisation that is quietly placed yet close to one of the coast's busiest leisure hubs. Within 2 km, the data lists 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist, a density that reflects the area's mix of permanent residents and visitors. Tourism infrastructure is substantial: 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds, which explains the seasonal fluctuation in footfall around Puerto Banús. For daily exercise, Polideportivo San Pedro lies 2.9 km away, with a climbing facility at 3.6 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.8 km. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint, 1.2 km away, offers a nearby destination for evening walks. Electric car owners can use the Marbella Supercharger 2.3 km away. Public transport consists of 10 lines with 50 stops in the area, making car-free living feasible for routine trips, though a car remains practical for reaching Marbella, Estepona or the airports. The terrain is essentially flat, a 0.2% gradient to the beach at 10 m elevation, so walking distances feel shorter than the raw figures suggest.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the stretch of coast immediately west of Marbella and north of Puerto Banús, often called the Golf Valley for its concentration of courses. Positioned 7 km from Marbella's historic centre and 54 km from Málaga, it sits in the central-western Costa del Sol, equidistant in practical terms from both Malaga-Costa del Sol and Gibraltar airports. This places it closer to the Marbella-Banús core than most comparable coastal developments, at a price and density level between central Marbella and the quieter stretches towards Estepona.
The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 km away in a straight line, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 km and Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 km, road distances will be longer. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is the closest marina at 1.0 km straight-line. Golf is a defining feature of the area: The Range golf lessons at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marballa Golf at 3.1 km. Marbella centre is 7 km away, Málaga city 54 km, and the airports are reachable via Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) at about 45 km straight-line and Gibraltar (GIB) at about 52 km. Public transport covers the area with 10 lines and 50 stops. By car, the coastal A-7 and AP-7 corridors connect the area along the whole coast; buyers should note that straight-line distances translate into longer road journeys, particularly around Puerto Banús in high season.

The climate data shows average monthly temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in the warmest, with an annual average of 19.2°C, a pattern that makes the terrace and outdoor areas usable for a large part of the year. The swimming season runs six months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, aligning beach use with the warmer half of the year. The site sits at 10 m above sea level with a gradient of just 0.2% towards the coast, meaning the terrain is flat throughout the urbanisation and the walk to the beach involves no hills. The Mediterranean climate supports the garden setting of the development, with palm trees and maintained planting. For residents, the practical implications are mild winters where the fireplace provides occasional evening warmth, warm summers managed by air conditioning, and long shoulder seasons in spring and autumn when outdoor living is at its most comfortable.

Three beaches lie within 3.5 km: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km), Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km), all measured in a straight line. The coast here offers the full Puerto Banús recreation cluster: the marina at 1.0 km for boating, waterfront dining and evening strolls, plus the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint at 1.2 km. Golf is the strongest recreational asset, with three courses within about 3 km, The Range for practice and lessons at 1.9 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 km, making the apartment a practical base for regular play. For structured sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km) provides municipal facilities, with climbing at Rocodromo (3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km) as further options. Families with children use the development's own communal pools and children's pool, which sit within the gated grounds rather than at a distance.

Within the Costa del Sol, Nueva Andalucía occupies a specific position: it is the residential heartland adjoining Puerto Banús, combining golf-course density with marina proximity. Compared with the new-build alternatives listed, the differences are structural. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950, but Torre del Mar lies on the eastern Costa del Sol, roughly an hour's drive east of Málaga, a different market with lower tourism intensity and fewer premium amenities. Lantana Residencial in Mijas starts from €205,000; Mijas sits between Fuengirola and Marbella and offers a more mid-market coastal profile. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona starts from €321,000 and represents the western Costa del Sol's newer developments, where buyers get modern specifications but a location further from the Marbella-Banús core. This apartment, at a fixed €460,000, is priced above those from-prices, which reflects three factors: it is in the Marbella municipality rather than its periphery, it offers immediate availability rather than a construction timeline, and it sits within an established urbanisation with mature gardens and on-site amenities. The regional transaction volume, 4,743 housing transactions per year in the area, indicates an active, liquid resale market. Buyers weighing this property against new-build options should compare not only price per square metre but also location premium, product age (2003 construction versus new specifications) and the absence of any purchase-stage risk, since the home already exists in its final condition.
