This five-bedroom detached villa is situated in the La Alzambra area, a short distance from the marina of Puerto Banús on the Costa del Sol. The property has a total built area of 471 m² on a private plot with garden and swimming pool, located within a gated community with 24-hour security. The home includes a self-contained 48 m² apartment on the lower level, a rooftop terrace with sea views and a private office, and a garage for one vehicle. The asking price is fixed at €1,900,000 and the villa is key-ready, having been completed in 2001 and since partially renovated.
Within the Costa del Sol market, this villa occupies a different segment from the new-build projects commonly listed further along the coast. Comparable developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar, Lantana Residencial in Mijas and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona are priced from roughly €205,000 to €321,950, but these are apartment-based new constructions in quieter, less central locations. This property, by contrast, is a completed detached villa in one of the most established residential pockets of the Marbella area, offered at a fixed €1,900,000. The premium relative to those projects reflects three factors: land, typology and address. A private plot with pool and garden within walking distance of Puerto Banús is scarce; most supply near the marina consists of apartments without private outdoor space. The housing market data shows 4,743 transactions per year in the wider area, indicating an active but competitive resale market where detached stock in gated communities trades on location rather than novelty. Buyers comparing this villa with new-build alternatives should weigh the trade-offs directly: newer projects offer developer warranties, modern energy performance and communal facilities, while this property offers space per euro in land terms, immediate availability and an address that new construction in Mijas or Estepona cannot replicate. Proximity to the golf valley of Nueva Andalucía, Las Brisas at 2.2 km with several other courses nearby, further separates it from coastal new-build zones where golf is a drive rather than a stroll. The trade-off is age: a 2001 construction requires technical due diligence that a brand-new unit does not.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa stands in La Alzambra, within Nueva Andalucía, immediately to the north-east of Puerto Banús marina. The beach at Playa Canina Ventura del Mar lies approximately 1.6 km away as the crow flies, and the marina itself is about 0.5 km from the development. Marbella town centre sits roughly 7 km to the east. The setting combines residential quiet with walking access to one of the coast's busiest entertainment areas.
The property offers five bedrooms, four bathrooms and 461 m² of living space, arranged to accommodate a household that needs separate quarters. The independent 48 m² apartment suits guests, staff or extended family. Airzone climate control allows temperature management per zone, and the rooftop office provides a workspace removed from the main living areas. A private pool, garden and covered terrace support outdoor living through the long regional season.
This is an existing home rather than a new-build project. Construction was completed in 2001, and the villa is key-ready for immediate transfer. Recent works include a renewed roof, new water filtration systems, a renovated kitchen and interior and exterior repainting. Delivery dates for completed properties of this kind are indicative and depend on the notarial process between buyer and seller.
The property includes a private garage for a single vehicle, with additional open parking directly outside. No second garage space is available within the deed. The listing does not mention sea views from the main living areas; open sea views are stated for the rooftop terrace. Details such as community fees, annual taxes and plot dimensions are not provided in the available data and should be confirmed with the seller.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Costa del Sol full-time would find five bedrooms, proximity to international schools such as the British International School at 4.8 km, and year-round services within walking distance. A household that regularly receives guests or employs staff can use the independent 48 m² apartment with its own entrance as separate accommodation without altering the main house. Buyers seeking a work-from-home arrangement benefit from the rooftop office, which sits apart from the living zones and enjoys open sea views. The property also suits those who want to be near the marina scene without living inside it: the elevated, gated plot gives distance from the bustle while keeping restaurants and shops reachable on foot. It is less obvious a match for buyers wanting a brand-new build with developer warranties, since the house dates from 2001, or for those needing parking for more than one enclosed vehicle. Households planning to rent the property commercially should verify licence conditions with the local authority before purchase. In short, the villa addresses space, privacy and location together; whether that combination fits depends on the buyer's priorities regarding age of construction and parking capacity.
The villa was completed in 2001 and has undergone a series of targeted upgrades since. The kitchen has been completely renovated in a contemporary style, and both interior and exterior surfaces have been repainted recently, giving the main rooms a refreshed appearance without a full rebuild. Structurally relevant maintenance has also been carried out: the roof has been completely renewed and new water filtration systems have been installed, addressing two of the more costly items in older Andalusian homes. Climate control is handled by an Airzone system throughout the house, which allows individual temperature settings per zone rather than a single central thermostat, a practical benefit given the difference between the rooftop office, the lower-level apartment and the main living floor. Interior features include fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms and a covered terrace connecting the living areas to the garden. The bathroom provision is four in total, with three bedrooms having en-suite facilities, which reduces morning pressure in a full household. Finishing quality in the independent apartment is functional rather than decorative, consistent with its intended use for guests or staff. As with any property of this age, buyers are advised to commission an independent technical survey to verify the condition of installations not covered by the recent works, such as electrical wiring and pool equipment.
The villa is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €1,900,000; this is not a from-price and there is no range of units to choose from. The property is key-ready, built in 2001 and delivered in its current renovated state, so there is no construction phase or staged payment plan to consider. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs, including transfer tax and notary fees, which are not included in the asking price. Interested parties can request the current availability status, community fee details and any recent inspection reports through the contact form; response times are typically within 24 hours.
Daily life around this villa revolves around the rhythm of Nueva Andalucía and the marina quarter. Mornings can begin on the private terrace overlooking the pool and garden, with the rooftop office available for remote work in a quieter setting above the house. Because the community is gated and monitored around the clock, the plot functions as a self-contained outdoor space: lawn, pool, loungers and shaded corners for the warmest hours. On foot, the marina at Puerto Banús is a short stroll, with its shops, restaurants and the Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint roughly 0.5 km away. The wider immediate area counts 73 restaurants, nine cafés, four pharmacies and four banks within a 2 km radius, which reduces dependence on the car for ordinary errands. Grocery runs, school runs and medical visits are all feasible within this radius, supported by five health centres nearby and 41 primary schools plus 28 secondary schools in the broader area. Evenings tend to gravitate either to the garden and pool or towards the marina, where dining continues late into the night, particularly in the summer season when visitor numbers swell. Outside the peak months the neighbourhood quiets down; the residential streets of La Alzambra retain a steady, year-round population. The independent apartment on the lower level can serve visiting family for extended stays without disturbing the main household, which changes how the house is used across the year.
The surrounding area blends residential calm with high visitor traffic. Within 2 km there are 73 restaurants, nine cafés, four pharmacies, four banks and a dentist, meaning daily needs are met without a car. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, lies about 1.6 km away as the crow flies on a route with a gradient of only 0.3 per cent, effectively flat, which makes walking and cycling to the coast realistic. Marina life is central to the district: Puerto Deportivo José Banús is roughly 0.5 km away, and the area draws around five million visitors a year, so summer months bring noticeably busier streets and longer waits at popular venues. For sport, Polideportivo San Pedro sits 2.2 km away, with a climbing wall at 2.8 km and CrossFit Marbella at 3.2 km. Public transport covers the area with nine lines and 50 stops, allowing car-free connections towards Marbella and San Pedro. Electric vehicle owners can use the Marbella Supercharger about 3.4 km away.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Puerto Banús occupies a central position on the western Costa del Sol, between Marbella 7 km to the east and Estepona further west along the same corridor. Málaga and its airport lie about 46–54 km to the north-east, while Algeciras and the Gibraltar area sit 51–59 km to the south-west. This places the villa within reach of both major airports of the region. The immediate district, Nueva Andalucía, is known for its concentration of golf courses and its mix of permanent residents and seasonal visitors, which distinguishes it from purely resort zones along the coast.
Distances in this section are straight-line measurements, and road distances will be somewhat longer. The beach is 1.6 km away; Marbella town is 7 km and Málaga city 54 km. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport lies approximately 46 km away and Gibraltar Airport around 51 km, giving a choice of two international gateways in either direction along the coast. Golf is a defining feature of the setting: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas is 2.2 km away, with further courses within a short drive, and well-known clubs such as Los Naranjos and Aloha in Nueva Andalucía. Schools include the British International School at 4.8 km and The International School of Estepona at 6.9 km. By car, the coastal A-7 and AP-7 corridors connect the area to Estepona, Fuengirola and Málaga, while the nine local bus lines and 50 stops provide public coverage for daily trips.

The villa sits at roughly 11 metres above sea level on essentially flat terrain, with a gradient of just 0.3 per cent towards the coast. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 19.2°C and monthly averages ranging from about 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season extends to six months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, roughly May through October. The rooftop terrace gains practical value in this context, providing an elevated outdoor space that catches sea breezes during the hottest weeks. Mountain views from the property frame the Sierra to the north, a common feature of the Nueva Andalucía setting where the coastal strip meets rising inland slopes. Rainfall concentrates in the winter half of the year, leaving long dry summers that suit outdoor living around the pool and garden.

Golfers have Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 2.2 km, The Range practice facility at 2.5 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 2.8 km, with further championship courses in Nueva Andalucía a short drive away. For structured sport, Polideportivo San Pedro offers municipal facilities at 2.2 km, and Rocodromo and CrossFit Marbella cover climbing and conditioning at 2.8 km and 3.2 km respectively. The district's hotel infrastructure, 52 hotels with nearly 12,800 beds, underlines the seasonal character of the visitor economy.

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.
