Live in Marbella and spend your summers on the Costa del Sol, bring to mind such places like The Golden Mile, Puerto Banús, Nueva Andalucía and Los Monteros; or those of developments and complexes such as Sierra Blanca, La Zagaleta, Cascada de Camoján and Laguna de Banús. Names of these types of developments and areas are renowned when speaking about tourism and the real estate market in Marbella. In extremely high demand, they are a safe bet both for an investment and for a permanent or holiday residence. Marbella however offers much more than these emblematic and characteristic locations. For this reason Marbella Unique Properties want to let you in on a few of the secret locations and places that make Marbella unique, as they will surely be of interest to you.
The name Puente Romano is synonymous to The Golden Mile. This world-renowned hotel is located on a beautiful stretch of Marbellas Golden Mile, but many people do not know that it is possible to own a property within the resort and enjoy all the services of this prestigious hotel and its tennis club (a unique venue for international tournaments and events). The exclusive Marina Puente Romano apartments enjoy the same elegance and refinement as the illustrious hotel. The houses are surrounded by creatively designed and well-kept gardens that form the heart of this residential development. In addition the surrounding area is extremely popular, with developments/urbanizations of villas such as “El Ancón beach” or “Altos de Puente Romano”.
Continuing on The Golden Mile, just before reaching Puerto Banús, we find one of the best kept secrets in the city. Located at the edge of the Rio Verde river (where two areas meet) Río Verde Playa is a very private little corner, discreetly hidden facing the sea, one of the most privileged areas on The Golden Mile. A few minutes from everything but private and isolated, next to one of Marbellas most exclusive beach areas. This area offers panoramic views along the coast, features spectacular beachside villas, townhouses and luxury apartments. Sea views from some of the properties are spectacular. In the same sense that the Puente Romano area is unique to The Golden Mile, the most secret area of Río Verde is a little corner by the sea, various builders knew how to value its privileged situation and developed high quality urbanisations in the upper part of the area, such as Lomas de Sierra Blanca.
On our short journey, it is time to stop at Puerto Banús and look for that unique oasis. Arriving at one of the most luxurious Marinas in Europe, an area with buildings such as Playas del Duque, Gray D’Albion, Los Granados or the apartments of the Marina itself are extremely popular. There is an urbanization that we must mention, not far from the marina itself, located between the golf course of La Dama de Noche and Puerto Banús. We are talking about an urbanization known as La Alzambra. For those who know Marbella well, La Alzambra is at the cut-off point where Nueva Andalucía ends and Puerto Banús begins. Without a doubt it is one of the best options offered by the real estate market. The lifestyle that the varieties of properties offer can give the best of both worlds: Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía living. The Alzambra is a small paradise only a short walk away from Puerto Banus, its beaches, shops and the vibrant nightlife of its most exclusive clubs; and the wonderful golf courses of Nueva Andalucía. Its urbanization enjoys beautiful vivid colours with tropical gardens and fantastic turquoise-colour pools which are a unique contrast to the terracotta-coloured facades.
As you can see, the exclusivity of Marbella comes in many forms and can be seen in a variety of locations. What can be more exclusive than buying a property in one of Marbellas hidden gems?
