A 299 m² commercial property is available for sale in Puerto Banús, on the Costa del Sol, with a fixed asking price of €1,350,000. The premises were previously operated as a restaurant and retain water and electricity connections, toilet facilities and a spacious outdoor terrace with a pergola. Completed in 1987, the building is key-ready and located close to the marina, shops and the sea. This page sets out the factual characteristics of the property, the surrounding amenities and the practical context of the location for commercial use.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property stands in Puerto Banús, in the Nueva Andalucía area southwest of Marbella. The marina lies about 0.5 km away as the crow flies, and the nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, at 1.6 km. The setting is urban and built-up, characterised by high-end retail, restaurants and bars around the harbour, with views over the surrounding mountains and town.
This is a commercial premises rather than a residence, so functional needs centre on business operations: 299 m² of interior space, existing utility connections, toilet facilities and a covered terrace with a pergola. The layout previously supported restaurant use and offers scope for conversion to other commercial formats, subject to licences and any required works.
This is an existing property, not a new-build project. Construction was completed in 1987 and the current status is key-ready. The asking price is fixed at €1,350,000. Given the age of the building, condition and compliance with current regulations should be verified through technical inspection before purchase.
The property offers no bedrooms, bathrooms as registered dwelling features, garden, private pool or residential amenities. It has no stated parking allocation, storage or energy documentation in the available data. Use as a home is not implied. Any change of commercial activity requires municipal approval, which is not included in the listed details.

This property suits a buyer with an existing or planned hospitality concept, or an investor seeking commercial real estate in an established resort centre. Recognisable situations include: an operator wanting a restaurant, bar or café space with substantial indoor area and a covered terrace in a high-footfall location; an entrepreneur planning a different commercial format, retail, showroom or services, where conversion is feasible and licencing can be obtained; and an investor adding a commercial asset to a portfolio, betting on rental income or capital appreciation in Puerto Banús. The scale of the premises, at nearly 300 m², requires a business plan that can absorb the running costs of a prime coastal location, including the rents, staff and seasonal fluctuation typical of the area. It does not suit buyers seeking a residence, a small starter premises or a low-cost entry into the Spanish market. The fixed asking price of €1,350,000 places this transaction above the residential entry segment of the region. Buyers should also be prepared for due diligence on a 1987 building: technical condition, installations, accessibility compliance and the licence status of the previous restaurant use all form part of the assessment before any commitment.
The available data gives limited detail on materials and technical installations. What is documented: the building dates from 1987, the premises measure 299 m², and water and electricity connections plus toilet facilities are present. The photographs show a finished interior, a modern bar with a red sofa and a mural, a restaurant interior with a wine mural and tables, and a covered patio with a wooden roof and plants, indicating that the space has been fitted out for hospitality use, though the current state of kitchen equipment, extraction, refrigeration and other catering infrastructure is not specified. For a building approaching four decades old, several points warrant professional verification: the electrical installation and its capacity for commercial use, plumbing and drainage, air conditioning and ventilation, and the structural condition of the terrace pergola. Compliance with current regulations, fire safety, accessibility, and food-handling requirements if hospitality use continues, is a separate matter from the visible finish. Buyers should commission an independent technical survey (in Spain typically an arquitecto técnico) before purchase. The property is sold key-ready, which in this context means available for handover, not that all installations meet modern commercial standards without works. No energy documentation is included in the listed data, and no warranty on installations is implied.
The property is offered at a fixed asking price of €1,350,000. It is an existing commercial premises completed in 1987, with 299 m² of floor space, delivered key-ready. The price reflects the location within Puerto Banús rather than new-build specifications; it should be assessed against the technical condition of a building of this age, any investment needed for refurbishment or change of use, and the commercial performance achievable in the immediate area. As a point of regional reference, new residential developments elsewhere on the Costa del Sol, for example in Estepona, Mijas and Torre del Mar, are marketed from roughly €205,000 to €322,000, though those figures are not directly comparable with a commercial asset in this location.
Puerto Banús functions as one of the main entertainment and retail centres of the Costa del Sol, receiving roughly five million visitors a year. For a commercial occupier, this translates into sustained footfall concentrated around the marina, the shopping areas and the seafront promenade. The property sits within that circuit, close to the port and to shops, which is the operational core of the area. A typical trading day here follows the rhythm of a resort town: quiet mornings, building activity through lunch, and evenings that run late into the night, particularly in the summer months and around weekends. The interior of 299 m² previously operated as a restaurant, and the photographs show a bar area, a dining space and a covered patio with a wooden roof and planting. The terrace, with its pergola and greenery, extends the usable area outdoors, which in this climate, an average annual temperature of 19.2 °C and a six-month swimming season, can operate for much of the year. Within 2 km there are 73 restaurants, 9 cafés, 4 pharmacies and 4 banks, indicating both the competition and the customer density of the immediate area. Fifty-two hotels with nearly 13,000 beds sit in the same radius, underlining how much of the local economy depends on tourism. Outside the high season the area quietens considerably, and businesses here generally adjust opening hours and staffing accordingly. For an operator, the location offers exposure to an international, high-spending clientele, but also the cost structure and competition that come with a mature resort destination.
Daily operations in Puerto Banús are shaped by its position as a marina and shopping complex developed in 1970 in Mediterranean coastal-village style. Within 2 km of the property, the amenity density is high: 73 restaurants, 9 cafés, 4 pharmacies, 4 banks and a dentist serve the immediate area. Healthcare is covered by 5 health centres nearby, and education by 41 primary and 28 secondary schools in the wider locality, plus international schools such as the British International School at 4.8 km and The International School of Estepona at 6.9 km, both measured in a straight line. For staff and suppliers, the setting is compact and flat, the ground rises only about 11 m above sea level, with a gradient of roughly 0.3% toward the beach. Public transport is available through 9 lines and 50 stops, which is workable for commuting employees, though most business logistics on the Costa del Sol run by van or car. The area is busy and lively rather than quiet: the marina, the promenade and the shopping streets generate constant movement, peaking in summer and at weekends. Outside the season the pace slows noticeably. Parking in the port area is a known constraint; the property data lists no private parking, so staff and delivery arrangements will rely on public car parks in the vicinity.
The map shows the property's position within Puerto Banús, with the marina roughly 0.5 km away and the beach at 1.6 km in a straight line. Marbella lies 7 km northeast along the coast. The immediate surroundings are dense with restaurants, shops and hotels, characteristic of this famous marina development at the heart of the Costa del Sol.

Puerto Banús sits at the western edge of Marbella municipality, in Nueva Andalucía, and functions as the commercial and leisure anchor of that stretch of coast. Marbella centre lies 7 km to the northeast; Estepona and its newer residential developments are further west; Málaga and its airport 46–54 km to the east. Within the Costa del Sol the port occupies a distinct position: older than most of the resort developments around it, built in 1970, and still among the region's largest visitor draws. For a commercial property, this means established name recognition and footfall rather than the speculative growth profile of newer areas.
Distances below are straight-line, as the crow flies; road distances are longer. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies 1.6 km away, with Playa de San Pedro at 2.8 km and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.7 km. The marina of Puerto Deportivo José Banús is about 0.5 km from the premises. Marbella centre is 7 km away, a town of almost 148,000 inhabitants; Málaga, with roughly 579,000 inhabitants and the provincial capital, lies 54 km distant. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is approximately 46 km away and Gibraltar Airport (GIB) about 51 km, giving access from two international airports. Golf facilities cluster nearby: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.2 km, The Range at 2.5 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 2.8 km. Electric-vehicle charging is available at the Marbella Supercharger, 3.4 km away, and at Estepona, 10 km. Access by car is via the A-7 coastal road and the AP-7 toll motorway, the standard routes along this coast. Within Puerto Banús itself most movement is on foot.

The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.2 °C and monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in the coolest months to 26 °C in summer. The swimming season, when sea temperature reaches 20 °C or more, lasts about six months, which supports outdoor hospitality for a large part of the year. Rainfall is concentrated outside summer; the data lists no extreme weather indicators. The terrain is essentially flat: elevation is around 11 m above sea level and the gradient toward the beach is 0.3%, so the property and its surroundings involve no notable slopes. Greenery in the immediate environment consists mainly of planting in the patio and along the promenade rather than natural parkland; the mountain views referenced in the listing are the ranges rising behind the coast. For a terrace-based business, the practical implication is that outdoor seating remains usable from spring through late autumn, with the pergola providing shade in the hotter months. The local calendar includes 32 public holidays per year, which influence footfall patterns.

The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, is 1.6 km away as the crow flies, followed by Playa de San Pedro (2.8 km) and Playa de Nagüeles (3.7 km); the data does not specify Blue Flag status for these beaches. Recreation around Puerto Banús is dominated by the marina itself, Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 0.5 km, together with watersports, yacht charter and the promenade that connects the port toward Marbella. Golf is a defining feature of the wider Nueva Andalucía area: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas lies 2.2 km away, The Range golf lessons at 2.5 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 2.8 km. Sports facilities within a short radius include Polideportivo San Pedro (2.2 km), a climbing wall at Rocodromo (2.8 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.2 km). The viewpoint at Mirador del Muelle de Honor, 0.5 km away, overlooks the harbour. For visitors and staff, these options make the area functional year-round, though the practical day-to-day attraction for a business here is the combination of beach, marina and retail within walking distance.

Puerto José Banús, more commonly known simply as Puerto Banús, is a marina located in the area of Nueva Andalucía, to the southwest of Marbella, Spain on the Costa del Sol. It was built in May 1970 by José Banús (1906-1984), a local property developer, as a luxury marina and shopping complex. It has since become one of the largest entertainment centres in the Costa del Sol, with 5 million annual visitors, and is popular with international celebrities. Developed around a coastal village in the Mediterranean architectural style, Puerto Banús contains high-end shopping malls, restaurants and bars around the marina.

A commercial premises in Puerto Banús occupies a different segment of the Costa del Sol market from the region's residential new-build supply. The comparable projects 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), are residential developments in the eastern and western halves of the coast, priced for the second-home and lifestyle market. They illustrate the entry level for new housing, but a €1,350,000 commercial asset in Puerto Banús responds to a different rationale: income generation from trading or rental in a mature leisure destination rather than personal use. Within the region, Puerto Banús competes primarily with Marbella's Golden Mile and central Marbella for high-footfall commercial locations. Marbella centre, 7 km away, offers a larger year-round resident base of almost 148,000 inhabitants; Puerto Banús itself is smaller but draws an outsized visitor volume, around five million a year, concentrated in retail, dining and marine leisure. Estepona has grown as a residential alternative with newer developments and lower entry prices, while Torre del Mar and Mijas sit in a more affordable, more seasonal segment. Practical points of comparison for a buyer: Puerto Banús offers density and spending power but with high operating costs, intense competition (73 restaurants within 2 km) and strong seasonality; areas further from the port trade lower rents for a more stable, less tourist-dependent customer base. The province records a median income of €16,450, which underlines how far the port's clientele sits above the regional average. Accessibility is comparable across the western Costa del Sol: Málaga airport 46 km away, Gibraltar 51 km, both reachable by the A-7 and AP-7.
