A key-ready two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment of 106 m² located on the Golden Mile in Marbella, Málaga. Completed in 2001 and maintained in good condition, the property forms part of a gated community with 24-hour security, communal pool, gym and sauna. The asking price is fixed at €610,000. The apartment includes an underground parking space and a storage room, and is situated roughly 1.3 km as the crow flies from Playa de la Bajadilla, with central Marbella about 7 km away along the coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands on the Golden Mile, the coastal strip between Marbella centre and Puerto Banús. Playa de la Bajadilla lies 1.3 km away in a straight line, with a moderate gradient of 4.9% between the complex and the shore. Marbella itself is approximately 7 km away, while Málaga and its airport are reachable via the A-7 coastal road.
The home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and 106 m² of living space, including an en-suite master bedroom and built-in storage. A south-facing orientation provides direct sunlight, and the open-plan living area connects to a private terrace. Practical needs are covered by a fitted kitchen, air conditioning, lift access, underground parking and a separate storage room.
This is an existing property, completed in 2001, not a new-build development. The apartment is delivered key-ready and fully furnished, which means no construction phase or waiting period applies. Buyers should budget for the normal maintenance expectations of a building of this age rather than new-build guarantees.
The property does not offer a private pool or private garden; both are communal. There is no mention of sea views, the listed outlook is over the pool area. With 106 m² and two bedrooms, the home suits smaller households. No pets policy, community fee amounts or renovation status beyond general condition are specified in the available data.
This apartment fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a low-maintenance second home will find that the furnished, key-ready delivery removes the usual furnishing and fit-out work, while the gated complex with on-site management suits owners who are absent for long periods. Full-time residents benefit from the walkable amenity density, schools, health centres and daily shopping within a short radius, and the eleven public transport lines with 50 stops in the area reduce the necessity of a second car. Buyers prioritising security, whether for family use or seasonal absence, will note the 24-hour gated access as a structural feature rather than an add-on. Investors should recognise the rental logic of the location: the Golden Mile's hotel stock and tourist traffic support short-term demand, and a two-bedroom unit with en-suite bathroom, parking and communal facilities is a workable holiday-let configuration, subject to licensing rules that the buyer must verify. The property is less suitable for households needing three or more bedrooms, a private pool or private garden space, or buyers specifically seeking frontline beach positions, at 1.3 km straight-line from the sand, the sea is close but not at the doorstep. Buyers comparing against new-build alternatives should weigh the 2001 construction year against the higher price-per-m² of newer stock in Marbella itself, and factor in that no new-build warranty regime applies to a resale of this age.
The interior specification, as listed, includes marble floors throughout, a fully fitted kitchen with modern wooden cabinetry, and air conditioning. Both bathrooms are functional installations, one being an en-suite to the master bedroom; the photographic record shows a bathtub with sink and toilet in at least one bathroom, plus a separate laundry room with washing machine. The open-plan living and dining layout connects to the private terrace, and the property is sold fully furnished. As a building completed in 2001, the underlying construction predates current energy-efficiency standards, and no data on insulation values, window glazing type or an updated thermal installation is provided; this is normal for resale stock of this era on the coast but relevant to running costs. Practical infrastructure is solid: lift access to all floors, an underground parking space protected from sun and weather, and a dedicated storage room, a combination that materially improves day-to-day usability in a coastal apartment. Community facilities include a gym, sauna, large communal pool and maintained tropical gardens, which spreads the cost of recreational amenities across the community rather than onto individual owners. The stated condition is good, and the turnkey presentation means no immediate works are implied by the seller, though buyers should still commission an independent technical inspection to assess the building's structural and installation condition, as is standard practice for resale purchases in Spain.
The asking price is €610,000, fixed, for a 106 m² two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment delivered key-ready and fully furnished. This equates to roughly €5,750 per m². The price includes practical extras that carry real value on this coast: an underground parking space and a dedicated storage room within a gated community. For context, new-build developments elsewhere on the Costa del Sol start at lower entry points, from €205,000 in Mijas and €269,950 in Torre del Mar, but those are off-plan or recent projects in less central locations. Availability is immediate, as the property is completed and not subject to a construction timeline. Community fees, IBI and basura charges are not stated in the available data and should be requested separately.
Daily life in this apartment centres on the combination of a secure residential base and a coastal setting. The building forms part of a gated community with 24-hour security, communal tropical gardens and a large swimming pool, so the outdoor living normally associated with the Costa del Sol takes place largely within the complex rather than on a private plot. The south-facing terrace extends the living area outdoors and, given the orientation, receives sun for most of the day. The immediate area is amenity-dense: within 2 km there are around 130 restaurants, 24 cafés, 28 pharmacies and 20 banks, which reduces dependence on car travel for everyday errands. The seaside promenade and Playa de la Bajadilla are about 1.3 km away in a straight line, walkable, though the moderate 4.9% gradient means the return walk climbs gently uphill. Mornings can plausibly involve a walk to the marina at Marina la Bajadilla, 1.4 km away, or a swim in the communal pool; evenings benefit from the density of dining options within a short radius. For sport, a municipal swimming pool, a rhythmic gymnastics pavilion and the Complejo Polideportivo Antonio Serrano Lima all sit within 1 km. The character of the Golden Mile is established and tourist-influenced: 52 hotels and nearly 13,000 beds operate in the wider area, so summer months bring noticeably more activity than winter. Outside the high season, the neighbourhood quiets down while the core amenities, health centres, schools, supermarkets and restaurants, remain open year-round, supported by a permanent local population in Marbella of nearly 148,000 people.
The Golden Mile positions residents between two anchors of the Marbella coast: the historic centre of Marbella, roughly 7 km away by straight line, and Puerto Banús, a five-minute drive according to the seller's description. Daily provision is unusually dense for a residential strip: 130 restaurants, 24 cafés, 28 pharmacies and 20 banks within a 2 km radius, alongside 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider area. Healthcare access includes five health centres within the same radius. For families considering longer stays, the British International School lies 3.0 km away and the English International College 7.7 km away, both straight-line distances. Recreational infrastructure is close: two marinas within 1.4–1.5 km, a municipal pool at 0.9 km, and sports complexes at 0.6–1.0 km. The immediate street environment reflects the Golden Mile's mixed residential-hotel character; the 52 hotels in the area mean pedestrian and road traffic rises in July and August. Public transport, eleven lines and fifty stops, connects the area to Marbella centre and neighbouring towns, making car-free living feasible for part of the year, though a car remains practical for golf, airport runs and inland trips. Electric-vehicle owners can use the Marbella Supercharger 4.3 km away.
The map shows the apartment's position on the Golden Mile between Marbella centre and Puerto Banús. Note that Playa de la Bajadilla at 1.3 km, the two marinas at 1.4 km and Marbella at 7 km are straight-line measurements; walking and driving distances are longer. The coastline, golf courses to the north-west and the A-7/AP-7 road network are all visible in the wider view.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
The Golden Mile is the coastal corridor linking Marbella's old town with Puerto Banús, and it functions as one of the most established premium addresses on the Costa del Sol. Relative to the wider region, the position is central-western: Marbella at 7 km, Estepona further west, and Málaga, the provincial capital with 579,000 inhabitants and the international airport, 54 km to the east. Algeciras and Gibraltar lie about 59 km to the south-west. This places the apartment within the mature, service-rich heart of the coast rather than in a developing fringe area.
Distances below are straight-line (as the crow flies); road distances are longer. The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, lies 1.3 km away, with Playa de Casablanca at 3.2 km and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.9 km. Two marinas sit within 1.5 km. Marbella centre is 7 km away, Málaga city 54 km, and Algeciras 59 km. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is approximately 38 km in a straight line, under an hour by road depending on traffic, while Gibraltar Airport is 59 km away, offering a secondary flight option. Golfers reach The Range at 6.6 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 8.1 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 8.9 km. Within 2 km, residents have access to around 130 restaurants, 28 pharmacies, 20 banks and 5 health centres, so most daily needs are met on foot or by a short drive.

The location sits at 81 m above sea level with a moderate 4.9% gradient down to the coast, meaning gently rolling terrain rather than steep hills. The average annual temperature is 18.3°C, consistent with the subtropical Mediterranean climate of the Marbella coast, where winters are mild and summers hot but moderated by sea proximity. The swimming season, the period with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about four months, roughly June through September, though the communal pool extends that window at the owner's discretion. The microclimate between Marbella and Estepona is among the most sheltered on the Costa del Sol thanks to the Sierra Blanca mountain range, which shields the coast from northern winds; this is a documented regional characteristic rather than a marketing claim. Natural viewpoints such as the Mirador de los Gitanos (2.5 km) and Mirador de Ojén (4.8 km) provide access to walking routes in the foothills, giving residents a mountain counterpart to the beach routine within a short drive.

The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla at 1.3 km, adjoins the working fishing port and marina of the same name, where 1.4–1.5 km also brings residents to Marina Marbella and the Puerto Pesquero, three separate waterfront points within walking range. Playa de Casablanca (3.2 km) and Playa de Nagüeles (3.9 km) extend the choice of swimming spots along the Golden Mile. Golf is a defining recreational feature of this stretch of coast: The Range golf school at 6.6 km, the established Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 8.1 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 8.9 km cover practice facilities through to championship-level courses in the Las Brisas, Nueva Andalucía golf valley. Sports facilities closer to home include a rhythmic gymnastics pavilion at 0.6 km, a municipal sports complex at 0.9 km and the Supera Miraflores centre with its pool at 1.0 km. Within the community itself, the gym, sauna and large pool provide daily recreation without leaving the complex. The area's tourism infrastructure, 52 hotels and 12,781 beds, signals both the quality and the seasonal intensity of the visitor economy around these facilities.

Measured against current new-build supply on the Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies a different segment. Comparable developments listed in the region, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000, are new-construction projects with from-prices and delivery timelines. This property, by contrast, is a completed 2001 resale at a fixed €610,000, which works out to roughly €5,750 per m². The price gap reflects two things. First, location: the Golden Mile is one of the most established addresses on the entire coast, sitting directly between Marbella's old town and Puerto Banús, whereas the comparables sit in Mijas, Torre del Mar and Estepona, areas that are either further from the Marbella centre or earlier in their development cycle. Second, immediacy and completeness: the buyer receives a furnished, turnkey home with underground parking and storage included, avoiding both the waiting period of off-plan purchases and the typical €30,000–€60,000 furnishing outlay that follows a new-build handover. The trade-off is age: a 2001 building predates current energy standards and carries no new-build ten-year guarantee in the same way, which is why an independent technical survey is advisable. Within Marbella itself, resale stock on the Golden Mile generally trades above the regional median price per square metre, sustained by limited land availability between the coastal road and the sea, the concentration of hotel and leisure infrastructure, and year-round demand rather than purely seasonal interest. For buyers weighing this apartment against a cheaper new-build further east or west, the decision effectively comes down to central Marbella location and immediate usability versus modern construction and lower entry cost in a secondary location.
