This penthouse is situated in Nueva Andalucía, in the municipality of Marbella on the Costa del Sol. The property is a completed 2007 building containing a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment of 140 m² with an approximately 100 m² private terrace. The location is urban and coastal, within walking distance of shops, restaurants and the marina of Puerto Banús, roughly 300 metres from the nearest beach. The asking price is €749,000. The surrounding area combines residential streets with a high concentration of golf courses, hotels and services geared towards both permanent residents and seasonal visitors.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property stands in an established urban district west of Marbella centre, roughly seven kilometres from the city and about 45 kilometres from Málaga Airport. Puerto Banús marina lies within one kilometre, and the nearest beach is approximately 300 metres away. Supermarkets, pharmacies and public transport stops are reachable on foot, which reduces dependence on a car for daily errands.
The penthouse offers two bedrooms with en-suite provision, a fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes and a large covered and open terrace with sea and mountain views. Air conditioning is individually controlled per room, and a lift serves the building. A private underground parking space is included. The configuration suits a couple or small household seeking a low-maintenance coastal base.
This is not a new-build development. The building was completed in 2007 and the apartment has since been renovated. The delivery date is therefore immediate: the property is available in its current condition. Buyers should apply resale-purchase diligence rather than off-plan planning, including review of the community rules and the building's technical documentation.
The property offers two bedrooms and 140 m² of interior space, which limits capacity for larger households. No communal pool or garden facilities are listed in the available data. The listing describes the home as furnished and equipped for short-term guest use, including a Jacuzzi and barbecue on the terrace; buyers should verify which fittings and furniture are included in the sale and check local rules on tourist letting.
This property fits a buyer seeking a turn-key, renovated apartment close to Puerto Banús rather than a new-build development on an urbanisation fringe. Recognisable situations include: a couple wanting a low-maintenance second home with the beach within walking distance and no garden or pool upkeep beyond the terrace; a remote worker who needs a dedicated workspace with fibre-optic connectivity and reasonable flight access via Málaga Airport, 45 kilometres away; a golfer who values having three golf clubs, Los Naranjos, Las Brisas and Aloha-area courses, within roughly two kilometres of the front door; or an investor weighing a rental asset in a high-demand tourist zone, where the 52 hotels and 12,781 beds nearby indicate sustained seasonal demand, though also significant competition. It is less suitable for households needing more than two bedrooms, for buyers prioritising communal pools and gardens, or for those seeking a quieter, less visited environment, the immediate area experiences pronounced summer crowds. Buyers intending to let the property short-term should verify the current licence situation for this specific unit, as Marbella applies rules on tourist-use housing.
The property was built in 2007 and has been renovated since; the available listing describes a designer finish throughout. The interior features an open-plan living and dining area, a fully fitted kitchen, fitted wardrobes including a walk-in wardrobe in the main bedroom, and two bathrooms finished in modern materials with a dual-vanity unit in at least one. Technical fittings listed include individually controlled air conditioning in every room, high-speed fibre-optic Wi-Fi, Apple TV units, a smoke and heat detection system and smart keyless entry. The terrace is equipped with a four-person Jacuzzi, an outdoor kitchen with barbecue, and separate dining and lounging zones. The building itself provides a lift and private underground parking. Points that buyers should verify independently: the energy performance certificate rating, which is not stated in the available data; the age and warranty status of the renovation works and the Jacuzzi installation; the condition of communal elements of the 2007 building; and exactly which furniture and equipment are included in the sale, as the current use appears oriented towards furnished short-term stays.
The asking price is €749,000 for a completed, renovated two-bedroom penthouse of 140 m² interior plus an approximately 100 m² terrace, one private underground parking space included. This equates to roughly €5,350 per m² of interior space, with the terrace adding substantial additional usable area. The price reflects the position within Marbella municipality and proximity to Puerto Banús. Comparable new-build projects elsewhere on the coast, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000), sit at notably lower price points but in different locations further from Marbella's central stretch of coast. Availability is immediate given the completed status.
Daily life around this penthouse is shaped by its position between two distinct zones: the residential grid of Nueva Andalucía and the marina district of Puerto Banús. The immediate street environment is urban, with a pharmacy 64 metres away, a supermarket roughly 350 metres away and a high density of restaurants and cafés within a two-kilometre radius. Most routine errands can be done on foot, and ten public transport lines with around fifty stops in the area provide connections towards Marbella and San Pedro Alcántara. The terrace, at approximately 100 m², functions as an additional living room for much of the year; with historical sunshine averaging 3,856 hours annually and a mean temperature of 19.2°C, outdoor dining and the Jacuzzi are practical for most months, not only in summer. The living area opens onto the terrace, so the daily rhythm of the home naturally moves between interior and exterior. The nearest beach is about 300 metres away, reached over flat terrain, which makes morning swims or evening walks along the seafront a routine option rather than an excursion. The building has a lift and private underground parking, so arrival and departure are straightforward in a district where summer parking pressure is a known factor. The area is busier in July and August, when hotel occupancy in the wider zone, 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds, peaks. Outside the high season, the neighbourhood quiets noticeably while most services remain open year-round.
The surrounding district is one of the densest service environments on this stretch of coast. Within two kilometres there are roughly 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks, 3 pharmacies and a dentist, alongside 5 health centres in the wider zone and a hospital 1.9 kilometres away. Education options are extensive for a coastal district: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the area, plus international schools such as the British International School of Marbella at 3.8 kilometres. Public transport comprises 10 lines with around 50 stops, and an EV charging point sits 368 metres from the property, with a Tesla Supercharger in Marbella at 2.3 kilometres. The trade-off of this urbanity is seasonality: peak summer weeks bring heavy traffic around Puerto Banús, and the neighbourhood's character shifts from residential calm in winter to high tourist activity from June to September. For year-round residents, the flat terrain and short distances mean a car is optional for daily life but convenient for reaching Marbella centre (7 km), Estepona or airport runs.
The map shows the property's position between the Nueva Andalucía residential grid and the Puerto Banús marina. Key reference points include the beach at 300 metres, the supermarket and pharmacy within a short walk, and the cluster of golf courses in the valley directly north. 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 Marbella centre, within Marbella municipality (population approximately 148,000). Regionally, it sits between Marbella at 7 kilometres and Estepona further west, with Málaga city 54 kilometres east and Algeciras 59 kilometres to the south-west. This positions the property in the central, highest-demand section of the Costa del Sol, closer to the established services of Marbella than to the newer developments pushing west towards Estepona, and at the heart of the area's golf concentration.
Distances from the property: the nearest beach, Playa de Puerto Banús, at approximately 300 metres; supermarket 353 metres; pharmacy 64 metres; hospital 1.9 kilometres. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina lies about one kilometre away. Golf is a defining feature of the location, Golf Los Naranjos at 2.0 kilometres, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.1 kilometres and Magna Marbella Golf at 3.1 kilometres. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 45 kilometres by straight line, typically a 45, 55 minute drive; Gibraltar Airport is about 52 kilometres.

The site sits at roughly 10 metres above sea level with a slope to the beach of 0.2%, meaning the terrain is effectively flat and walking to the seafront involves no incline. Historical sunshine totals around 3,856 hours per year, and the mean annual temperature is 19.2°C with seasonal averages ranging from about 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The sea remains at or above 20°C for approximately six months of the year, defining a practical swim season from roughly late May to late October. Frost is essentially absent at this elevation. The mountain backdrop visible from the terrace, the Sierra Blanca range above Marbella, provides hiking options within a short drive, though the immediate surroundings are fully urban rather than natural.

The closest beach, Playa de Puerto Banús, lies roughly 300 metres from the property, followed by Playa Canina Ventura del Mar at about 2.2 kilometres and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.1 kilometres; Playa de Casablanca sits 3.5 kilometres east. These beaches form part of Marbella's continuous 27-kilometre coastline of sandy coves and chiringuitos. Golf is the area's principal recreational asset: Nueva Andalucía is known locally as the 'golf valley', with Golf Los Naranjos (2.0 km), Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.1 km), Magna Marbella (3.1 km) and a driving range at 2.0 kilometres. The marina at Puerto Banús, one kilometre away, provides berths, waterfront dining and boat excursions, while the viewpoint at Mirador del Muelle de Honor at 1.2 kilometres offers a recognised sunset spot.

Within the Costa del Sol market, this penthouse occupies a different segment from the region's active new-build pipeline. Comparable new developments listed in the wider area, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000, all sit at roughly a third of this property's asking price, but they are located in eastern and western growth zones respectively, 40 to 70 kilometres from Marbella centre. What the buyer pays for here is position: walking distance to Puerto Banús beach and marina, placement in Marbella municipality's most established district, and immediate availability without construction risk or phased delivery. The trade-offs are structural. A 2007 building carries the maintenance profile of its age, and the unit offers 140 m² of interior space with two bedrooms, whereas new-build alternatives at lower price points often provide three bedrooms, communal pools, gyms and current energy certifications. Set against resale stock within Nueva Andalucía itself, the property competes directly with other renovated apartments and penthouses in the €700,000, 900,000 band, where terrace size and proximity to the marina are the main differentiators. The local market context matters as well: the district recorded 4,743 property transactions, reflecting high liquidity but also constant supply competing for the same buyer pool. For investors, the 52 hotels and 12,781 beds nearby confirm a mature tourist economy with year-round demand drivers, though also regulatory scrutiny on short-term letting in Marbella. For owner-occupiers, the deciding factors against newer western developments at similar prices will be walkability, immediate sea access and the established character of the golf valley versus modern specifications and communal amenities.
