This four-bedroom semi-detached house is located in the La Retranca community in Aloha, Nueva Andalucía, within Marbella's Golf Valley. The property offers 140 m² of living space with three bathrooms, a private and covered terrace with barbecue, a communal pool and communal gardens. Built in 1983 and in good condition, it has a southwest orientation with mountain and garden views. Puerto Banús and its marina lie roughly one kilometre away as the crow flies, while several golf courses sit within a three-kilometre radius. The asking price is fixed at €799,000 and the home is key-ready.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands in Aloha, a residential district of Nueva Andalucía west of Marbella centre, which lies seven kilometres away in a straight line. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is approximately one kilometre distant, and three golf courses operate within just over three kilometres. The setting is flat, at ten metres above sea level, with the nearest beach about 2.6 kilometres away by direct line.
The layout serves family use: four bedrooms, three bathrooms and an open-plan kitchen connected to the living and dining area. The private and covered terrace with barbecue faces southwest, giving afternoon and evening sun. Fitted wardrobes, air conditioning and a communal pool cover daily practical needs, while communal parking removes the need for a private garage. Storage is limited to what the house itself provides.
This is an existing home, completed in 1983, not a new-build development. It is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. The condition is described as good, with a partially fitted kitchen. As with any property of this age, buyers typically arrange an independent technical survey to assess the state of installations and structure before completion.
The property offers no private pool, no private garden and no private parking; pool, garden and parking are communal. There is no private garage or separate storage room listed. Mountain views exist but the sea lies roughly 2.6 kilometres away, so this is not a beachfront home. The plot is modest at 219 m², and the kitchen is only partially fitted.

This house fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Marbella area year-round benefits from four bedrooms, three bathrooms and the density of schools nearby, including 41 primary and 28 secondary schools in the wider region and international options such as the British International School about 3.8 kilometres away. A buyer seeking a second home with golf as the main activity will find three courses within roughly three kilometres, including Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.3 kilometres. Those wanting proximity to Puerto Banús without living in its busiest zone get a residential street one kilometre from the marina. The property suits buyers who accept communal facilities, pool, garden and parking, in exchange for a lower entry price than a detached villa in the same district. It is less suitable for anyone requiring a private pool, a private garage or substantial land, since the plot is 219 m² and all outdoor amenities are shared. Buyers planning extensive renovation should note the 1983 construction date and factor survey findings into their budget, while those wanting a turn-key home can move in directly given the key-ready status.
The house dates from 1983 and is presented in good condition, though the specification reflects its era rather than contemporary new-build standards. The kitchen is partially fitted and integrated with the lounge area, forming an open-plan arrangement with the dining space; buyers intending a fully modern kitchen should assume some investment. Interior storage is provided through fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, visible in the photographic material. Climate control consists of air conditioning, a practical necessity for the summer months when average temperatures reach around 26°C. Glazing in the main living area includes large glass doors connecting the interior to the terrace, supporting natural light in the combined living and dining space. Externally, the property has a covered terrace with a barbecue, orientated to the southwest, plus access to the communal pool and communal gardens of the La Retranca community. Parking is communal, with no private garage or enclosed storage listed. For a home of this age, the technical condition of the roof, electrics, plumbing and insulation is the key diligence item; an independent survey before purchase is standard practice and provides the factual basis for any negotiation or renovation planning. The construction type, white-rendered semi-detached housing with curved architectural elements, typical of the Nueva Andalucía developments of its period, has proven durable across the district, but individual condition always depends on maintenance history.
The property is offered at a fixed asking price of €799,000. This is an existing, key-ready home, so no construction-phase payment schedule applies; the purchase follows the standard Spanish resale process with a deposit, private contract and notarial completion. The price reflects the location within the Golf Valley and the proximity to Puerto Banús, and compares with new-build alternatives further along the coast that start materially lower but sit in less central positions relative to Marbella. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs, including transfer tax, notary and registry fees, and should verify annual running costs such as community fees for the shared pool and gardens.
Daily life here follows the rhythm of an established residential neighbourhood rather than a resort. La Retranca sits in Aloha, a part of Nueva Andalucía known for its golf courses and low-rise housing, so mornings tend to be quiet, with the busiest periods in summer and around weekend golf traffic. The southwest orientation means the main living spaces and terrace receive sun from midday onwards, which suits afternoon use: meals outside, the barbecue on the covered terrace, and shade available when needed. The open-plan kitchen and living area form one continuous space of roughly 140 m², workable for a family of four to five given the four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Practically, the immediate surroundings are well served: within two kilometres there are dozens of restaurants, several pharmacies, banks and cafés, so shopping and errands do not require long trips. A car remains the natural mode of transport, as communal parking is available but public transport, though present with ten lines and fifty stops in the wider area, is geared more to local connections than regional travel. The nearest beach is a few minutes' drive at roughly 2.6 kilometres direct, and Puerto Banús is about one kilometre away for marina walks, dining and shopping. Evenings are typically calm in the community itself, with the livelier activity concentrated around Banús and the coastal strip rather than in the residential streets.
The immediate area combines residential calm with dense amenity provision. Within a two-kilometre radius, the neighbourhood offers around 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 3 pharmacies and 4 banks, meaning that most daily needs, bread, groceries, coffee, medical basics, are covered without leaving Aloha or the adjacent commercial areas. Healthcare access includes 5 health centres in the wider area. For recreation, the Polideportivo San Pedro sports centre lies 2.9 kilometres away, with a climbing facility and a CrossFit gym slightly further, giving structured sports options beyond golf. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint, 1.2 kilometres away, offers a nearby walking destination overlooking the coast. Marbella centre, seven kilometres in a direct line, provides the historic Old Town, wider shopping and municipal services, while Málaga city and its airport are 54 and about 45 kilometres away respectively, making regional and international travel manageable by car. Traffic is heaviest on the coastal corridor in July and August, and around Puerto Banús in the evenings; the residential streets of La Retranca themselves remain comparatively quiet through the year. An electric-vehicle charging point, the Marbella Supercharger, is 2.3 kilometres away, a relevant detail for EV owners.
The map shows the house in La Retranca, Aloha, with Puerto Banús just over one kilometre to the south and the golf courses of the valley arranged around the district. Note that the distances shown are straight-line; road routes to the beach and Marbella are longer.

Nueva Andalucía occupies the coastal shelf immediately west of Marbella and north of Puerto Banús, placing this property in one of the most central residential positions on the western Costa del Sol. Marbella lies seven kilometres to the east, Estepona further west along the same corridor, and Málaga, the regional capital and airport hub, 54 kilometres northeast. Gibraltar is about 52 kilometres southwest, giving a second airport option. The district's identity rests on the Golf Valley concentration of courses and its function as the year-round residential base behind the Banús leisure economy.
Distances below are straight-line figures; actual road distances are longer. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 2.6 kilometres away, with Playa de Nagüeles at 2.7 kilometres, both a short drive. Puerto Deportivo José Banús is approximately one kilometre from the house, walkable for those who do not mind crossing the busy road network around the marina. Three golf courses sit within 3.1 kilometres: The Range at 1.9, Las Brisas at 2.3 and Magna Marbella at 3.1 kilometres. Marbella centre is seven kilometres distant, Málaga city 54 kilometres, and Malaga-Costa del Sol airport roughly 45 kilometres, typically under an hour by car. Gibraltar airport is about 52 kilometres away in the opposite direction. Public transport exists, ten lines and fifty stops in the area, but serves mainly local journeys; a car is the practical choice for beach, golf and airport trips. Parking at the property is communal.

The climate data supports year-round outdoor living: average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest month to 26°C in summer, with an annual mean of 19.2°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about six months. The terrain around the house is essentially flat, a gradient of 0.2 per cent towards the beach, and the elevation is ten metres above sea level, so no steep walks or stairs dominate daily life. Rainfall is concentrated in the winter half of the year, leaving long dry stretches from late spring to early autumn. The mountain views noted at the property come from the Sierra Blanca range rising behind Nueva Andalucía, visible from the upper floors and terrace. The southwest orientation aligns with the prevailing afternoon sun, making the terrace most usable from midday into the evening, though summer afternoons require the shade of the covered terrace. Gardens in the community remain green through the dry season with irrigation, and the flat coastal strip makes cycling a realistic option for local trips.

Beach life centres on the stretch between Puerto Banús and Marbella. Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.6 km) is the closest option, followed by Playa de Nagüeles (2.7 km) and Playa de Casablanca (3.5 km); these sandy beaches carry the full chiringuito and watersports provision typical of the Marbella coast. Golf is the district's defining recreation: The Range for practice (1.9 km), Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.3 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (3.1 km) all sit within minutes, with Aloha Golf Club also nearby in the Golf Valley. For general sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km) offers municipal facilities, complemented by a climbing wall (3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). On the water, three marinas are within reach, José Banús at one kilometre, Marbella's Virgen del Carmen marina at 5.3 kilometres and La Bajadilla at 6.7 kilometres, covering everything from day charters to ferry connections. The tourism infrastructure is substantial, with 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds in the area, which keeps restaurants and leisure open through the shoulder seasons.

Within the western Costa del Sol, position matters more than square metres, and this property's main asset is location. Nueva Andalucía sits between Marbella centre and Estepona, directly behind Puerto Banús, which places it in the established heart of the region's premium residential market. The asking price of €799,000 for 140 m² works out at roughly €5,700 per square metre, a figure consistent with a central Marbella-district resale and materially above the cost per square metre of new-build projects further along the coast. The comparable developments listed, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), illustrate the trade-off clearly: those buyers get newer construction, modern specifications and often private outdoor space at a lower entry price, but in locations 30 to 60 minutes further from the Marbella, Banús core, with less density of golf, dining and international services. What this house offers instead is immediacy: a walkable distance to the marina, three golf courses within three kilometres, an international school at 3.8 kilometres, and a mature neighbourhood that functions year-round rather than seasonally. The regional market context supports steady demand, roughly 4,743 housing transactions per year in the area, with tourism infrastructure of 52 hotels sustaining rental and resale interest. The median provincial income of €16,450 underlines that this segment is driven by national and international capital rather than local wages, which historically stabilises prices in prime districts but also means values track international demand cycles. For a buyer comparing options, the honest summary is that the same budget buys newer and larger elsewhere, but not this combination of address, golf access and proximity to Puerto Banús.
