This detached villa sits within a gated enclave of 18 homes on the Golden Mile, one of the most established residential addresses between Marbella centre and Puerto Banús. Completed in 2009, the property offers 410 m² of living space arranged over four levels, with five bedrooms, five en-suite bathrooms, a private lift from garage to rooftop terrace, a swimming pool and far-reaching coastal views. The asking price is fixed at €3,349,999. The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, lies approximately 1.3 km away as the crow flies, and Marbella town centre is roughly 7 km distant.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa is located in a gated community on the Golden Mile, roughly 7 km from Marbella's historic centre and 54 km from Málaga city. Playa de la Bajadilla beach is about 1.3 km away in a direct line, with two marinas within 1.5 km. The immediate area combines established residential streets with a high density of restaurants, cafés and services within 2 km.
The layout is designed for permanent or extended residence: four en-suite bedrooms on the lower level, a fifth en-suite bedroom on the main living floor, a laundry room, garage access, and a lift serving all levels. Three terraces on the main floor and a rooftop entertainment level with a bar provide outdoor space for most of the year given the local climate.
This is not a new-build project but an existing home completed in 2009 and delivered key-ready. No construction phases or future delivery dates apply. The villa is part of a finished gated enclave of 18 properties with mature tropical gardens, so buyers can inspect the completed home and its surroundings before committing.
Points of attention based on available data: no golf course lies within immediate walking distance, the nearest is roughly 6.6 km away. The gradient to the beach is approximately 4.9%, described as moderate. The property is a single existing villa, so no choice of unit, floor plan or finish options is available. Community arrangements within the 18-villa enclave will carry shared costs.
This villa fits several recognisable situations. A family relocating to the Costa del Sol for the long term will find five en-suite bedrooms, 41 primary schools and 28 secondary schools in the wider area, and two international schools, the British International School at about 3 km and the English International College at roughly 7.7 km, within practical reach. Buyers seeking a lock-and-leave second home benefit from the gated setting, the lift that removes stair-dependent living, and key-ready condition with no waiting period. Households that entertain frequently can use the bar-and-terrace rooftop level and the oversized principal terrace as extensions of the interior. Purchasers who prioritise outlook will note that coastal views begin at the main living floor and expand considerably from the roof, including the African coast on clear days. The property is less obviously suited to buyers who want to walk to a golf course (nearest around 6.6 km), who prefer a brand-new build with warranties and customisation, or who need a budget entry point into the region. It is equally less fitting for those seeking rural isolation: the area is urbanised and services are dense. For a buyer comparing the Golden Mile's established stock against new coastal developments, this home represents the completed, inspectable alternative with mature landscaping and a known community structure.
Constructed in 2009 to a high standard, the villa uses premium materials and quality finishes throughout, according to the seller's documentation. The interior photographs show a modern hallway with mirror detailing, a master bedroom with a large window, and a kitchen with white cabinetry and stainless-steel worktops and appliances, a palette consistent with the late-2000s Andalusian luxury market, characterised by light surfaces and clean lines. Practically, the most significant technical feature is the private lift spanning garage level to rooftop terrace, a substantial installation that affects both daily convenience and long-term accessibility. The two-entrance configuration, garage-level access and a first-floor main entrance, reflects a split-level plot design common on the Golden Mile's gentle slopes. The bathroom count matches the bedroom count one-to-one, all en-suite, which indicates a plumbing layout designed for guest and family independence rather than shared facilities. The laundry room is described as well appointed and separate from the sleeping level. Outdoor construction includes the swimming pool with surrounding palm planting and multiple terraces at different orientations. As the property is fifteen years old at the time of writing, buyers should verify the condition of systems that age with time, lift servicing records, pool installation, air conditioning units and waterproofing of the rooftop terraces, through an independent technical survey, which is standard practice for resale homes of this vintage in Spain.
The asking price is fixed at €3,349,999 for the completed villa, this is an existing home, not a project with a price list. The price reflects the property's position on the Golden Mile, its 410 m² of living space, five en-suite bedrooms, private lift, pool and rooftop terrace. As a resale in a mature 18-villa gated enclave, the home is available immediately in its completed 2009 construction state. Buyers should budget separately for purchase costs and any community fees applicable to the shared gardens and enclave upkeep; these are not included in the stated figure.
Daily life in this villa revolves around a clear separation of levels. The main living floor, entered from the first-floor main entrance, combines a large living and dining area with the kitchen and a fifth en-suite bedroom, opening onto three terraces, the principal one large enough to function as an outdoor dining and sitting room for much of the year. The lower residential level holds four further en-suite bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, some with direct access to an elevated terrace, plus a laundry room. A lift connects the garage level to the rooftop, so groceries, luggage and daily movement between floors require no stairs. The top level is set up for entertaining and relaxation, with a bar, seating areas and a wide rooftop terrace with views along the coast and, on clear evenings, towards the distant African coastline. Outside, the private pool sits among palm trees within the enclave's tropical gardens. Because the community is small and gated, the immediate surroundings stay quiet, while the density of amenities within 2 km, around 130 restaurants, 24 cafés, 28 pharmacies and 20 banks, means daily errands rarely require a long journey. The rhythm of the area is seasonal: lively in summer, considerably calmer outside the tourist months, with roughly 52 hotels and high visitor numbers concentrated between June and September. For residents, this translates into a setting that feels residential rather than resort-like at street level, with coastal leisure a short drive away.
The Golden Mile corridor offers one of the densest amenity networks on this section of coast. Within a 2 km radius, available data lists roughly 130 restaurants, 24 cafés, 28 pharmacies, 20 banks and 2 dentists, so daily shopping, dining and healthcare errands are compressed into short trips. Health coverage includes 5 health centres in the area, and educational supply extends to 41 primary and 28 secondary schools. Sports facilities are notably close: a rhythmic gymnastics pavilion at 0.6 km, a municipal pool at 0.9 km, the Complejo Polideportivo Antonio Serrano Lima at 0.9 km and the Supera Miraflores centre at 1.0 km. Two marinas, Marina la Bajadilla and Marina Marbella, both sit about 1.4 km away, with the fishing port at 1.5 km. The enclave's own gates create a quiet interior, while street-level activity rises in summer given roughly 52 hotels and nearly 12,800 tourist beds in the area. Public transport is workable for a coastal suburb: 11 lines serve 50 stops in the vicinity, and an EV Supercharger sits 4.3 km away. A car remains the practical default for most journeys, particularly given the moderate 4.9% gradient between home and beach.
The map shows the villa's position on the Golden Mile relative to Marbella's seafront, the two nearby marinas and the beaches along this section of coast. Marbella centre lies approximately 7 km to the east; the coastal motorway runs parallel to the shore, linking the area towards Málaga airport, roughly 38 km in a direct line northeast.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
The Golden Mile is the stretch connecting Marbella's old town with Puerto Banús, historically the coast's benchmark address for established villa stock. Positioned here, the property sits closer to Marbella (7 km) than to the larger urban centres of Málaga (54 km) and Algeciras (59 km), with Gibraltar roughly 59 km southwest along the same coast. Within the Costa del Sol as a whole, this is the mature, low-density segment of the market, distinct from the apartment-dense new-build zones further east in Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona. For international buyers, it represents the settled end of the regional spectrum: finished homes, established gardens, known neighbours.
Distances below are straight-line; road travel is longer. The nearest beach, Playa de la Bajadilla, is 1.3 km away, with Playa de Casablanca at 3.2 km and Playa de Nagüeles at 3.9 km. Marbella centre lies about 7 km away, a town of nearly 148,000 inhabitants with full urban services. Málaga city, at 54 km, and Algeciras, at 59 km, bracket the area to north and south. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is roughly 38 km as the crow flies, drive times are longer and depend on the A-7/AP-7 coastal motorways, while Gibraltar Airport is about 59 km distant. Golfers have three courses within 9 km: The Range at 6.6 km, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas at 8.1 km and Magna Marbella Golf at 8.9 km. Public transport covers 11 lines and 50 stops locally; nonetheless, a private vehicle is the practical mode for beach, golf and airport trips.

The area records an average annual temperature of 18.3 °C, typical of the western Costa del Sol's Mediterranean climate with mild winters and warm, dry summers. The swimming season, when sea temperature holds at 20 °C or above, spans roughly four months, concentrating beach activity between late spring and early autumn. The villa stands at 81 m elevation, low enough to keep walking and cycling realistic but high enough to lift the main living level above the coastal strip for its recorded sea and coastline views. The 4.9% gradient to the beach is moderate: manageable on foot for most people, though the return journey climbs steadily. Nearby natural viewpoints at Mirador de los Gitanos (2.5 km) and Mirador de Ojén (4.8 km) give access to hillside walking and panoramas inland, contrasting with the urbanised coast. For residents, this combination means terrace use is practical for most of the year, with outdoor living concentrated around the villa's three main-floor terraces and rooftop during the long warm season.

Beach options within a short drive start with Playa de la Bajadilla at 1.3 km straight-line, adjacent to the marina of the same name, followed by Playa de Casablanca (3.2 km) and Playa de Nagüeles (3.9 km) along the Marbella seafront. Two marinas at 1.4 km and the Puerto Pesquero at 1.5 km add berths, seafood restaurants and waterfront walking to the leisure mix. Golf is a defining regional activity, and three courses sit within 9 km: The Range for lessons at 6.6 km, plus the established Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (8.1 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (8.9 km). Swimming beyond the sea is possible at the municipal pool 0.9 km away. Organised sport clusters close to home: the rhythmic gymnastics pavilion at 0.6 km and two further sports centres within 1.0 km. For buyers used to the Mediterranean rhythm, morning swims, long lunches, evening strolls along the paseo, the distance profile here places all of that within a few minutes' drive rather than at the doorstep.

Within the Costa del Sol market, this villa occupies a very different segment from the region's current new-build output. 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 apartment developments at entry-level price points on the eastern and central coast. This property, at a fixed €3,349,999, is an established detached villa on the Golden Mile, the coast's historically most recognised villa address, where finished resale stock predominates over new construction. The practical differences are structural. Apartment projects offer shared pools, community living and off-plan or early-stage purchase with developer warranties; this villa offers private outdoor space, a private pool, an en-suite-per-bedroom layout and a rooftop entertainment level with coastline views. Land value explains much of the gap: land on the Golden Mile is scarce, largely built out, and priced accordingly, whereas Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona still have development land at scale. Buyers weighing the two routes are effectively choosing between a completed, inspectable home with fifteen years of maturity in a known community, and a new unit with modern specifications but delivery risk, construction timelines and less generous floor areas. Both carry community costs, the 18-villa enclave here versus large apartment communities elsewhere. Marbella's market context adds a further distinction: with roughly 4,743 housing transactions per year recorded for the area and strong international demand concentrated on prime addresses, resale liquidity at this end of the market historically depends more on location scarcity than on finish trends. The provincial median income of €16,450 underlines how far above the local mainstream this price segment sits; the buyer pool is international, not domestic. For that audience, the comparison is less with €300,000 apartments and more with other completed villas between Marbella and Benahavís.
