Penthouse Las Brisas is a duplex penthouse of 197 m² with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, situated in a gated community in Nueva Andalucía, west of Marbella. The building dates from 1997 and the property has since undergone a full renovation, including renewal of the electrical system and plumbing. The residence lies close to Puerto Banús, with the nearest beach approximately 300 metres away, and is surrounded by established golf courses such as Los Naranjos and Las Brisas. The asking price is €1,195,000. Communal facilities include two swimming pools, two padel courts, landscaped gardens and communal parking.
At €1,195,000 for 197 m² (roughly €6,070 per m²), Penthouse Las Brisas sits in a different market segment from the comparable new-build projects listed. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts at €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas at €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona at €269,000, all eastern or western Costa del Sol locations with lower land values and smaller unit types. The price difference of roughly €900,000 against these entry-level projects is explained by location and product type rather than build quality alone. Nueva Andalucía, and specifically the Golf Valley adjacent to Puerto Banús, is among the most established premium districts on the coast. Land values here reflect proximity to the port, the concentration of four golf courses, and year-round demand from both resident and international buyers. The regional transaction volume of 4,743 recorded property transactions in the area indicates an active, liquid market with regular resale activity, relevant for buyers considering exit options. Against new-build alternatives, this property offers a completed, renovated product with no construction timeline risk, larger floor area per euro in some cases, and mature communal gardens and facilities. The trade-offs are equally factual: a 1997 building does not carry a new-build energy certificate or warranty, parking is communal rather than a deeded private space, and there is no private pool. Within Nueva Andalucía itself, the location near the Puerto Banús commercial strip trades walkability for a degree of summer-season busyness; equivalent properties one to two kilometres inland in the golf valley are typically quieter but less walkable to the beach and port.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in Nueva Andalucía, an established residential area west of Marbella centre and directly inland of Puerto Banús. The nearest beach is roughly 300 metres away and the marina about one kilometre. Shops, a pharmacy and a supermarket are within walking distance, and Marbella centre lies seven kilometres east. Málaga Airport is approximately 45 kilometres away.
The property functions as a three-bedroom duplex penthouse with 197 m² of living space, suited to permanent residence or extended seasonal stays. It includes an open-plan living room and kitchen, a covered entrance terrace, a private terrace, fitted wardrobes, a jacuzzi and underfloor heating in the bathrooms. Communal facilities comprise two pools and two padel courts.
This is not a new-build project. The building was completed in 1997 and the individual property has been fully renovated since, with new electrical installations and plumbing. The condition is documented as recently renovated. Delivery is immediate, as the property is completed and available. No construction risk or phased delivery applies.
The property does not include a private pool; only communal pools are available. Parking is communal rather than a private garage space. The residence has two bathrooms rather than three, despite having three bedrooms. There is no mention of a private garden, sea view or storage room. The building age of 1997 means the structure predates current new-build energy standards.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a turn-key home near Puerto Banús without undertaking renovation work will find the updated installations and move-in condition relevant. Households wanting a walkable base in Spain, where supermarket, pharmacy, restaurants and the beach are within a few hundred metres, will find the distances practical, particularly if reducing car dependence is a goal. Buyers who play golf or padel regularly may value the two padel courts on site and three golf courses within two kilometres. The property also suits those who prioritise outdoor living: the south-west orientation, two terraces and 3,856 recorded annual sunshine hours support terrace use for much of the year. Families considering part-time or full-time relocation have 41 primary schools within reach, including international options such as the British International School at 3.8 kilometres. The layout, three bedrooms across two levels, works for couples with visiting guests, small families, or owners who want spatial separation between living and sleeping zones. It fits less well for buyers requiring a private pool, a private garage, three bathrooms for three bedrooms, or a modern sea-facing view; these are absent here. Buyers sensitive to summer crowds should also note that the immediate Puerto Banús area carries significant seasonal tourism, with 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 beds nearby, which raises summer activity levels. For owners travelling frequently, the 45-kilometre distance to Málaga Airport and 10 bus lines provide workable connections without a second vehicle.
The property was built in 1997 and has since been fully renovated, with the electrical system and plumbing documented as renewed. This addresses the two installations that most often carry maintenance risk in buildings of this age, and it reduces the likelihood of near-term capital expenditure on core services. Interior elements include an open-plan living room and kitchen with a contemporary finish, a kitchen island, fitted wardrobes, and a jacuzzi. The bathrooms have underfloor heating, which is a comfort feature typically found in higher-specification renovations rather than standard Spanish resale stock. Climate control combines air conditioning with central heating, allowing year-round temperature management across both summer and the cooler December, February period, when average temperatures fall to around 12°C. Ceilings are described as high, and the duplex format contributes to natural light and cross-ventilation. External features include a covered terrace at the entrance and a separate private terrace, giving two distinct outdoor spaces with different exposure: the covered terrace offers shade in the afternoon, while the open terrace receives direct sun. Views are documented toward La Concha mountain, the gardens and the pools; a sea view is not listed. The building itself is of 1997 construction, so structural elements, façade and communal infrastructure correspond to that period rather than current new-build regulations. No energy certificate rating has been documented, and buyers should request the official certificado de eficiencia energética as part of due diligence. Communal areas, gardens, two pools and two padel courts, are shared facilities whose upkeep depends on the community of owners and is funded through community fees.
The asking price is €1,195,000 for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex penthouse of 197 m², which equates to roughly €6,070 per square metre. This positions the property in the upper segment of the Marbella resale market, consistent with Nueva Andalucía's proximity to Puerto Banús and the golf valley. The price reflects the completed renovation, including renewed electrical and plumbing systems, and the communal facilities of the gated community. As this is a completed resale property, no stage-payment structure applies; the standard Spanish purchase process with deposit and notary completion is followed. Availability is immediate.
Daily life at this address is organised around walkability and established infrastructure. A supermarket sits 353 metres from the door and a pharmacy 64 metres, meaning routine errands do not require a car. Within a two-kilometre radius there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks and 3 pharmacies, which reflects the density of Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía's commercial strip. The rhythm of the area is year-round rather than purely seasonal: 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools serve the wider zone, and five health centres operate nearby, with the closest hospital under two kilometres away. The duplex layout places the main living area, open-plan kitchen and entrance terrace on one level, with bedrooms arranged to make use of the building's height and mountain views toward La Concha. The south-west orientation means afternoon and evening sun on the terraces, which shapes how outdoor space is used: mornings are typically spent in the covered entrance terrace, while late-day light falls on the private terrace overlooking the gardens and pools. For recreation, two communal pools and two padel courts sit within the gated community itself, removing any travel time for daily swimming or sport. The 10-metre elevation and 0.2 per cent slope to the beach make the area flat and manageable on foot or by bicycle, including for older residents. Mobility options are broad: 10 public transport lines and 50 stops serve the area, an EV charging point stands 368 metres away, and the motorway network connects to Marbella in minutes and to Málaga Airport in under an hour by car. The balance of the location is urban-coastal: busy in summer due to Puerto Banús tourism, quieter but fully functional in winter.
The immediate environment is urban-coastal. Nueva Andalucía forms part of Marbella's western corridor, a continuous built-up area running from the town centre through Puerto Banús toward San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona. Within a two-kilometre radius, the density of services is high: 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks and 3 pharmacies, alongside a supermarket at 353 metres and a pharmacy at 64 metres. Health provision includes 5 health centres in the area and a hospital at 1.9 kilometres. The beach at Puerto Banús lies roughly 300 metres away, reachable on foot in under five minutes over flat terrain. Golf infrastructure is a defining feature of the district: Golf Los Naranjos and The Range sit 2.0 kilometres away and Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.1 kilometres, with Magna Marbella at 3.1 kilometres. Sports facilities extend to Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km), a climbing wall (Rocodromo, 3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). Transport runs on 10 public lines with 50 stops, and an EV charger stands 368 metres from the property. Seasonality matters: the 52 hotels and roughly 12,800 tourist beds in the area mean summer months bring noticeably more traffic and footfall, while the winter period is quieter but services remain open year-round given the permanent population. Marbella's 147,958 residents support a full off-season economy, so restaurants, schools and healthcare do not close in winter as they do in some smaller coastal towns.
The map shows the property in Nueva Andalucía, immediately north of Puerto Banús.

Nueva Andalucía sits in the western Marbella corridor, between Puerto Banús on the coast and the golf courses inland. Marbella centre lies 7 kilometres east, San Pedro de Alcántara roughly 5 kilometres west, and Estepona a further 20, 25 kilometres along the coast. Málaga city is 54 kilometres east and Algeciras 59 kilometres west. Within this corridor, Nueva Andalucía is characterised by villa and apartment communities interspersed with golf courses, positioned as a residential district rather than a resort or a town centre. The location combines direct coastal access at Puerto Banús with the quieter, greener setting of the Golf Valley one kilometre inland.
Distances from the property are compact by Costa del Sol standards. The nearest beach, Playa de Puerto Banús, is approximately 301 metres away on foot. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina lies 1.0 kilometre away. Three golf courses sit within a 2.0, 2.1 kilometre radius. A supermarket is 353 metres and a pharmacy 64 metres from the door. The hospital is 1.9 kilometres away. Marbella centre is 7 kilometres east, reachable in roughly 10, 15 minutes by car or via local bus lines.

The location sits at 10 metres above sea level with a slope of 0.2 per cent toward the beach, effectively flat terrain that supports walking and cycling to the coast. The climate data show an average annual temperature of 19.2°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. Historical sunshine hours total 3,856 per year, among the higher figures recorded in mainland Spain, which supports year-round terrace use given the property's south-west orientation. The swimming season extends to six months, with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, generally May through October. Winter remains mild enough for outdoor activity, though central heating and air conditioning, both present here, cover the seasonal extremes. The Sierra Blanca range, including La Concha at 1,215 metres, sits directly north of Nueva Andalucía, providing the mountain views documented at the property and acting as a wind barrier that contributes to the area's sheltered microclimate. Green space in the district consists mainly of golf course landscapes and the community's own landscaped gardens rather than natural parkland.

The nearest beach, Playa de Puerto Banús, lies approximately 301 metres from the property, a walk of a few minutes. Playa Canina Ventura del Mar follows at 2.2 kilometres and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.1 kilometres, with Playa de Casablanca at 3.5 kilometres. The beaches around Puerto Banús and Nagüeles are urban beaches with chiringuitos, sunbed services and lifeguard posts during the season; the Nagüeles stretch is one of the wider sandy sections on the Marbella coast. Recreation extends beyond the coast: the gated community itself provides two communal swimming pools and two padel courts, so daily swimming and racket sport require no travel. Golf is the district's core amenity, Golf Los Naranjos (2.0 km), Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (2.1 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (3.1 km) form part of what is locally called the Golf Valley. Additional sports infrastructure includes Polideportivo San Pedro (2.9 km), a public climbing facility (3.6 km) and CrossFit Marbella (3.8 km). The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint (1.2 km) offers a short walking destination over the port.
