This 180 m² apartment forms part of Fuente Aloha, an established residential urbanisation in the Aloha area of Nueva Andalucía, west of Marbella town centre. The property is a completed second-floor unit with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a guest toilet, oriented to the south-west with views over communal gardens and the pool. The location sits within the so-called Golf Valley, roughly one kilometre from Puerto Banús marina and its beaches, with supermarkets, pharmacies and restaurants within walking distance. Built in 1970, the urbanisation includes communal facilities such as a gym, sauna and indoor pool, alongside underground parking and a storage room.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment lies in Nueva Andalucía, an urbanised district of Marbella approximately 7 km from the town centre. Puerto Banús and its marina are about one kilometre away, with the nearest beach roughly 300 metres beyond that. Three golf courses sit within a two-kilometre radius. Daily amenities, a supermarket at 353 metres and a pharmacy at 64 metres, are reachable on foot.
The layout suits households needing three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with en-suite facilities in the two principal bedrooms. A covered terrace of generous proportions extends the living space year-round, oriented south-west for afternoon and evening sun. Communal facilities include a pool, gym, sauna and indoor pool, and the unit comes with underground parking and a storage room.
This is not a new-build development. The building dates from 1970 and the urbanisation is fully established, with mature gardens and completed infrastructure. The listed completion status is 'ready', meaning the property can be transferred without construction-stage waiting times. Delivery dates for transactions of this kind depend on the purchase process rather than a building schedule.
The property is an apartment within a communal urbanisation, so there is no private garden or private pool. Built in 1970, the construction predates current energy-efficiency standards and no certified energy label is stated in the available data. Views are limited to the garden and pool area rather than the sea. Renovation status is described as 'good condition', not newly renovated.
This property matches several recognisable situations. A household relocating to the Costa del Sol with children would find three bedrooms with two en-suite bathrooms, and international schools, the British International School at 3.8 km among them, within a short drive. Buyers seeking a low-maintenance base near the coast, without the upkeep of a villa, get a completed apartment with communal pool, gym and sauna already in place. Those who prioritise walkability over seclusion benefit from the supermarket, pharmacy and restaurants within a few hundred metres, an arrangement that reduces dependence on a car for daily errands. Golf players are a natural fit: Los Naranjos, Las Brisas and The Range all sit within about two kilometres, making the Golf Valley designation a practical description rather than a marketing label. Buyers wanting a sea view or a frontline beach position would not; the outlook here is internal, over gardens and pool, with the beach a walk rather than a glance away. Similarly, purchasers expecting new-build energy performance should note the 1970 construction date. The property also suits those who want immediate availability, no construction phase, no phased payments, with the transaction timeline governed only by the standard Spanish purchase process.
The interior specification, as listed, includes marble flooring throughout, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, and a separate fitted kitchen with a utility room, a layout typical of the era's larger apartments, where kitchen and living functions were kept separate rather than combined into an open plan. Two of the three bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and the main bathroom is fitted with a double sink unit, visible in the property photography. Climate control is provided through air conditioning, and the covered terrace extends usable living space into the cooler months. Building services include a lift to all floors and dedicated underground parking, with a separate storage room, a practical combination for a coastal property where ground-level storage and shaded parking affect daily comfort. The communal facilities, gym, sauna and indoor pool, are part of the urbanisation's shared offering and subject to community rules and fees. The construction dates from 1970. For buyers, this has two implications worth checking during due diligence: the building predates modern energy-efficiency codes, so thermal performance depends on subsequent upgrades such as the installed air conditioning rather than original insulation standards; and the overall condition is described as 'good' rather than renovated, meaning the interior finish reflects maintenance and updating over five decades rather than a recent refurbishment. A technical survey remains the appropriate instrument for verifying installation condition.
The asking price is €702,000 for the complete 180 m² unit, which equates to roughly €3,900 per square metre. This is a single resale property rather than a phased development, so there is no price ladder across unit types or orientations; the published price applies to this specific apartment with its parking space and storage room included. Comparable new-build projects elsewhere on the coast start from substantially lower figures, €205,000 in Mijas and €269,950 in Torre del Mar, but those are smaller units in different locations. Within Nueva Andalucía itself, resale stock of this size near Puerto Banús trades in a distinct segment. Additional purchase costs (transfer tax, notary, registry) apply on top of the asking price.
Daily life around this apartment follows the rhythm of an established, low-rise residential neighbourhood rather than a resort. The urbanisation is set back from the coast road in the Aloha area, meaning mornings begin quietly: garden and pool views from the terrace, the supermarket a few minutes' walk away, and a pharmacy 64 metres from the entrance. Because the area is largely residential with villa districts interspersed between apartment complexes, the streets carry local traffic rather than through-traffic for most of the year. The apartment's south-west orientation shapes the daily pattern. Sun reaches the covered terrace from midday onwards, making it usable for lunch and dinner across the seasons, a practical consideration given the region's 3,856 historical annual sunshine hours. The second-floor position, with lift access, balances accessibility against a degree of outlook over the gardens. Puerto Banús, roughly one kilometre away, functions as the area's commercial and social anchor: marina, beachfront restaurants and the Playa de Puerto Banús. For sport, three golf clubs sit within about two kilometres, and Polideportivo San Pedro offers municipal facilities at 2.9 km. Out of the summer season the neighbourhood retains its services, 69 restaurants within a two-kilometre radius operate year-round, and the international schools within three to eight kilometres indicate a permanent resident population. A car remains useful for golf, Marbella town and the airport, but the immediate daily essentials do not depend on one.
The surrounding area combines residential quiet with dense amenity coverage. Within a two-kilometre radius, the data records 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks, 3 pharmacies and a dentist, alongside 5 health centres and 41 primary schools in the broader area, figures that describe a permanently inhabited district rather than a seasonal one. Hospital care is 1.9 km away. Mobility is a strength of this specific location: the supermarket sits 353 metres from the urbanisation and a pharmacy 64 metres, so daily shopping works on foot. An EV charging point is 368 metres away, and a Tesla Supercharger at 2.3 km serves longer journeys. Public transport coverage includes 10 lines and 50 stops in the vicinity, though for most residents a car remains the default for Marbella, golf and airport trips. Tourism pressure exists, 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 beds are recorded in the area, concentrated around Puerto Banús and the beachfront. The Aloha district itself, slightly inland, carries less of that load. Marbella centre is 7 km east, Málaga city 54 km, and the AGP airport 45 km, translating to a drive of roughly 40, 50 minutes depending on traffic on the A-7 coastal road.
The map shows the apartment's position within Nueva Andalucía's Aloha district: close to the supermarket and pharmacy cluster, about a kilometre inland from Puerto Banús and its beaches, and ringed by the golf courses that define this section of the Marbella coastline. Marbella centre lies to the east along the coastal road.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Nueva Andalucía occupies the coastal strip immediately west of Puerto Banús and roughly 7 km from Marbella's historic centre. Within Marbella's 148,000-person municipality it functions as a distinct district known for its concentration of golf courses, the 'Golf Valley', and a housing stock that mixes 1970s urbanisations such as Fuente Aloha with newer luxury developments. Málaga city (579,000 inhabitants) lies 54 km north-east and serves as the region's administrative and cultural capital. Algeciras, 59 km west, connects towards Cádiz province. The location positions residents between Marbella's old-town amenities and the Puerto Banús commercial strip, both within a short drive.
The nearest beach, Playa de Puerto Banús, is approximately 300 metres from the property, with Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at 2.2 km and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.1 km. Three golf clubs, Los Naranjos (2.0 km), The Range (2.0 km) and Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.1 km), cluster around the district. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina is one kilometre away. Málaga-Costa del Sol airport lies 45 km straight-line, with Gibraltar's airport an alternative at 52 km. Marbella town centre is 7 km, offering the region's fuller range of municipal and commercial services. Sports facilities include Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km) and several private gyms. The terrain towards the beach is essentially flat, with a 0.2 per cent gradient, so walking and cycling are practical for most daily trips.

The location sits at approximately 10 metres above sea level on flat coastal terrain, meaning no hillside climbs between the apartment and the beach. The climate data records an average annual temperature of 19.2°C with seasonal averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, and 3,856 historical sunshine hours per year, a figure consistent with one of Europe's sunniest coastlines. The swimming season extends to roughly six months, during which sea temperatures hold at or above 20°C, placing water comfort from late spring into autumn. Afternoon and evening sun on the south-west-facing terrace follows directly from the orientation, and the covered section provides shade during the hottest hours. The nearby Sierra Blanca mountain range, visible from parts of Nueva Andalucía, shelters the coastal strip from some northern weather systems, which contributes to the area's mild winter readings. Rainfall concentrates in the cooler months; summer months are predominantly dry, which affects garden maintenance expectations in the communal grounds.

The immediate beach option is Playa de Puerto Banús, roughly 300 metres away, a groomed urban beach backed by the marina's restaurant row. Two further beaches, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar (2.2 km) and Playa de Nagüeles (3.1 km), offer alternatives with different characters; Nagüeles is one of Marbella's longer established beach zones with chiringuitos along its length. Golf is the area's defining recreation: Golf Los Naranjos and Real Club de Golf Las Brisas are both championship-standard courses within two kilometres, and The Range provides practice facilities at the same distance. Magna Marbella Golf adds a fourth option at 3.1 km. Water-based recreation centres on Puerto Deportivo José Banús (1.0 km), from where boat trips, paddle-surf hire and jet-ski operations run through the season. For land sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km) offers municipal courts and pools, while private options include a climbing wall (Rocodromo, 3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint (1.2 km) provides a short walking destination with coastal views.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this property occupies a mid-to-upper segment defined by location rather than novelty. The listed comparables, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000), are new-build projects in the eastern and western stretches of the coast, where land values per square metre run below central Marbella. Those developments offer modern construction standards, current energy certificates and phased availability; this apartment offers none of those things, but counterbalances with scale (180 m², three en-suite-capable bedrooms), an established urbanisation with mature facilities, and an address within roughly one kilometre of Puerto Banús. The price of €702,000 works out near €3,900 per square metre, a figure that would be unremarkable for Nueva Andalucía, where the Golf Valley's stock spans 1970s complexes through to contemporary luxury developments priced several times higher. Buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives are effectively comparing two trade-offs: construction era and specification against floor area, position and immediacy. The resale route delivers a completed asset with no delivery risk and no phased payments, while new-build further from Marbella's centre delivers energy performance and warranties at the cost of a longer wait and typically smaller footprints at comparable prices. Transaction data for the area records 4,743 property transactions, indicating an active, liquid local market, relevant for anyone factoring eventual resale into the decision. As ever in this segment, community fees, IBI and the building's maintenance history warrant direct verification.
